[Blue Highway]

Still like my 2012 Kia Sportage EX, but thinking odd a new Niro hybrid. I bought my Sportage with the 32/28 mpg as the main selling point. Actual combined is more like 25 and that’s with me hypermiling to conserve gas. The Niro will get 52 all day and hypermiling prickly in the high 60s.

At least the Kia settlement mpg program will reimburse as long as I own the car. They have refunded me a couple of $100 gift cards based on the mileage driven and the local gas pricesn

I feel your pain. I drive a small SUV/crossover. It’s like pulling teeth to get anything over 20 mpg. On the plus side, it’s comfortable ride, handles well and has plenty of pep. But when gas prices crept up over $4 a gallon, and every fill-up came up to almost a C-note, a fuel-sipping econobox started looking better and better.

I’ve had 2 elantras; 2 Sonatas and 1 Tucsan. waiting 4 years on an mpg settlement for one of the elantras. I still like hyundai even though resale stinks.

I bought probably the last car of my life - 2017 Hyundai Ioniq - Blue Trim. Can’t help but get 50-55 mpg all day. Less in cold weather - right now sitting on 40 mpg in 20 degree weather. Some days I can squeeze 60-62 mpg out of it. Traded in a Prius-C for it. For me, it was a trade up.
