That's what I thought. I too, have a hard time even with the initial 50mpg's stock. Maybe I just suck at hypermiling though?

I love my '95 Geo Prism 4 dr. 5 spd/AC 1.6L Corolla clone. At 135k and stock without hypermilling I got 36mpg at 65 mph 90 degrees F with the AC on. Tires are 195/65 radials at 35 psi. Consider this the low end of these vehicles. Yes, it coasts very well.

At what speed?

[MrEnergy]

65 mph for the most part but mixed with short distances of 45mph. The best I've seen was constant 65mph for 600 miles. 43.5mpg....... There is alot I could do to improve this of course but it's a good baseline for stock I suppose.
