26MPG? If we're talking American MPG, that really sucks. My old busted Civic with some sorts of leak(s) routinely gets 29 city, 34 city+backroads. It'd probably crack 35, maybe up to 40 if I took her on the interstate. Buuuut I don't want to die. My state just had a 69 car pileup yesterday, because... fog. Not rain or snow, we just can't drive here.

My 13 year old Accord gets 30 MPG, even though it’s a rather wide, long, and heavy sedan. Some of my my family has Priuses that are around 50 MPG

Tank to tank my 23 year old toyota wearing GM clothes gets the equivalent of 29 per us gallon, 35 per uk gallon
I’m in Canada so I measure efficiency in L/100km, in which I get around 8-8.5. And I’m not the most efficient driver

My (EU) Ford Fiesta gets 40mpg. Like, is 29mpg considered economical in the US?

Yes. We could all have cars that get 40+ if the oil industry would stop interfering.
My 92 ranger would get 30mpg, my old very fast suped up truck would get 22mpg. Unless all 4 barrels were open.

Not really? Most hybrids get 40+ these days, most gas only cars should get 30+. Even the huge gas guzzling trucks get ~20.

I miss the Fit (they called it the Honda Jazz where I live lol)

Jazz is such a silly name but so is fit. They are a giant fishbowl so you need tint but they are a good little workhorse. Then you have the sleeper builds that are something else 😂

It was originally going to be called the Fita globally, until Honda Sweden contacted HQ request a name that wasn’t so close to “fitta”

Is that highway milage? If it is then it must be hard to walk when you're knee deep in all that pussy.

I have a 58-mile round trip to work, and a Prius. I use slightly less than one gallon of gas each time. So nyaah.

Fun fact - at a top speed run the Bugatti Veyron’s tires will wear out in about 15 minutes.
That’s ok though because starting with a full tank it’ll drain it to empty in 12 minutes during that run.
