      I have a 2022 with the 1.8l non hybrid. I consistently get 40-44 mpg on the highway going 60-65 mph. I recently got 46 mpg highway which was interesting.

      2021 Corolla Hybrid averaging actual 52.8 over 18800 miles in a year and a half of Northeast driving. However my MPG readout regularly reads high. BTW the Corolla Hybrid gas tank is 11.3 gallons.

      on what highways can you drive under 70 and not get run off the road... try this during the day without being "that guy" :) I suppose for hyper-miler people you can average 60-70mpg.
      driving from MI to GA and back I got 50mpg doing 10-20 over the speed limit the whole way just keeping up with the flow of traffic. Average around home is 55, average in the city is mid 60's where it can use electric more, and best is 73.1.

      Update on my last comment. I went with the Elantra Hybrid instead. I chose the Elantra instead of the Corolla because of the features it has vs the Corolla. Also I think the Elantra looks much better inside and out vs the Corolla. I had it a few months now and already put over 10,000 miles on it. No problems at all, no recalls and I am averaging 54mpg. I am happy with my choice.

    Toyota Corolla Hybrid better MPG's than most motorcycles. We have both a 2022 RAV 4 Prime, and a 2020 Toyota Highlander Hybrid AWD, both Toyota's of course. Both when running on the gas engine have achieved more MPG's than the EPA.
    Last trip with the Prime delivered nearly 49 MPG in hybrid mode once the battery was depleted, EPA is 38 MPG. Our Highlander Hybrid averages 38-42 MPG and EPA is 34 MPG. Toyota is the most fuel efficient hybrids you can buy and have the best reliability as well. Some early Prius models have over 200-300 thousand miles and are still going strong well after 10 years on the road.

    • @g60corrado91
      @g60corrado91 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It’s pretty wild. Even non-hybrid Toyota’s are doing over EPA. We’ve taken our 2021 Highlander XLE AWD with the 3.5L V6 on a couple of road trips in the last couple weeks and got a best of 30.1mpg calculating manually. This was cruising at 72-78mph with 2 people in the car and a lot of luggage. It kills me that Toyota just killed off the 3.5L for the newest Highlander (I think it’s a 2.4T they’re replacing it with) when this engine is so tried and trued and still gets near 30 on the highway.

    Had to wait 3 months but I finally have mine on the way, for MSRP. Could have gotten it in a week if I wanted to pay 3800 over. But wasn't willing to pay "market adjustment" fees and wanted the blueprint color with all the extra options. My dealership also ads an extra 2 years of maintenance coverage on top of what toyota offers, and extends the warranty for the entirety that you own the car unless it exceeds the original purchase price, includes the battery and hybrid system since toyota already warrenties that for 10 years and doesn't consider it a wear item. Not that that's really an issue since it's a toyota, but I'm pretty happy despite it being a boring car.

    I own this car. Better in the city is not really true. If you are going stop light to stop light accelerating each time you get horrible mileage. If you are bumper to bumper accelerating lightly not engaging the gas engine then yes you will get great mileage. You get the best mileage maintaining a constant speed. The best I ever got was 54 mpg, I usually get 51 or 52. The mileage the dash is telling you is sometimes 2 to 5 mpg off. You gotta do the math. I always have eco mode on.

    The accuracy of the calculation by car could be (partially) explained by the speedometer being accurate as heck too. When we got our 2019 Corolla I noticed that there is no 8% difference in speed measurement like we had with every other car (Peugeot, Ford, Toyota Verso). Even if we had the correct tire size etc
    Now if it says 50km/h it is exactly 50mk/h.

      No extra maintenance for the hybrid. On a long enough timeline the hybrid batter will fail/need to be replaced, but Toyota puts a ten year/150,000 mile warranty on them in the US market and from what I've seen with older Priuses the batter pack will last at least that long, so I wouldn't worry about that too much.

    I am debating between this and an Ev. I got a new job that will add ~30k to my yearly income with ease. I am debating should I keep my 2008 honda accord coupe which will cost me ~5-6k in gas. The gas prices now is what is making consider getting a new car. It's between a chevy bolt or a ioniq 5. If I was to get an hybrid it would the prius prime. The new job is 50 minute drive away: 90kilometers each way. Any thoughts anyone.

      Here's the real deal: you can't buy fuel economy. Your Honda is going to cost you $5-6k in gas annually, and you're talking about spending six to eight times that much on a new car at least. And then you still have to either pay for electricity or gas or both. Strictly from a money standpoint, keeping your Accord for as long as possible before laying out the cash for a new car is the best move. BUT, the other variable here is what condition is your current car in? If it currently needs a bunch of maintenance and you need reliable transportation to your new job, that figures into the equation heavily. Plus there is the impulse to get a new car, which I certainly understand. So you have to figure out what the value of that is to you as well.

      @@CarDietrich I have considered the points that you have brought forth. My baby is 15 years old and I do NEED reliable transportation. The 50 thousand km a year is just for work. I am not taking into consideration the driving around town taking the kids to their respective activities. With the price olgas today the app estimated ~ 7 644 dollars for driving strictly for work.
      That is why I considered the Chevy Bolt EUV. With 11k incentives and my down-payment I am looking at 531 a month for 6 years. So what I would be spending on gas I am paying for the car. The hospital in question offers free charging to employees. Your thoughts would be appreciated. Getting feedback hepls me see potential blind spots.

      Based on that scenario, the Chevy Bolt deal does make sense. I have two friends who have Chevy bolts, they both like them and I've driven one of them and it's a fine little electric car. The only potential pitfall I see is if the bolt has enough range for all your getting around and how many charging stations do they have at your new workplace. It's fine if they say "oh yes we provide free EV charging as an employee benefit!" But if they only have ten charging stations and 12 of you have EVs, it's not gonna be that great.

      Every Sunday, my family (dad, mom, and sis) and I drive about 150 miles to church and back home. The drive is mostly freeway and involves elevation changes between 400 to 2,500 feet. Even with 4 adults in the car, our 2022 Corolla hybrid consistently averages 61+ mpg.

      Yes but only for a limited time, if you're waiting for an hour or two it will definitely run the gas engine for a good portion of that.

      @@danbyrd5237 You'll probably get something like 10-20% engine running depending on conditions (temperature, sun). The engine will be off mostly, and when it kicks on to recharge it will run the engine at a relatively high RPM for efficiency, then turn off again. It's one of the reasons I'm getting a hybrid as well, to be comfortable when waiting without feeling like a maniac burning gas constantly to go nowhere.
