Do you have the new Civic Hybrid with the A/C driven by the
electric motor ?

Thanks,

Gee,

Our 2003 Civic Hybrid routinely delivers 42-46 mpg--higher in winter
(without A/C running). In the summer it's a bit lower because we nearly
always need A/C, and sometimes have to keep the engine running at a
stoplight (southern Arizona--typical summer high temperature of 100 degrees
F. or higher). Worst-case mileage: around 37-38 mpg on interstates (speed
limit 75 mph).

You may have special and unusual driving conditions that reduce your
mileage. But there are those of us who get mileage that isn't terribly far
from the EPA estimates (highway driving at 75 mph is not something accounted
for by EPA testing, unfortunately).

Yes, I've received several comments that it must be due to my ignorant
driving habits. The reality is, that I and my wife both drive very
conservately, no jackrabit starts, no 70 mph driving etc. I've
had the car for 20 months and the average mpg is 33. I've had it
in several times to the dealer, no problems found - he only wanted
to know just whatr mileage I expected.

The same sort of complaints are frequent with the Toyota Prius. I
guesstimate about 1 in 4 (SWAG) drivers get about 2/3 the economy others get
under similar conditions. Sometimes it is because the tire pressures were
too low (Toyota specs the pressures way too low) or the defroster was always
on, but most remain mysteries.

The Civic hybrid is a little easier to pin down than the more complex
Toyota, though. If you can compare highway economy with anybody who has
similar terrain and temperatures you can tell if the engine is working
right. Your highway economy at 60 mph in mild weather should not be very
different from the EPA estimate. If it is, something is clearly wrong.
Around town, there are just too many variables.

Mike
