This is not what I see with the Insight at all. Though I've never done any long-term measurement (because I just don't do that much city driving), on a fairly smooth highway I'll see anywhere from 65-75 (freeway) to 100+ (rural road at 50-55 mph). In the city? Maybe 40-50 average, if you leave out the slightly downhill stretch through Carson City. I often fill up on the north end of town, and if I catch all the lights will be at 120 mpg or more before I get to the south end, and have to start climbing the hill.
