I'm REALLY glad I drive a hybrid.

[trof]

2014 Ford C-Max.
45-50 mpg.

[rurallib]

1. Me too! Prius C - similar mileage

[alittlelark]

2. 2008 Prius 50-55 mpg

[wackadoo wabbit]

12. That's impressively high for one that old. How many miles do you have on it?

Did you replace the hybrid battery?

Mine is a 2004 with ~225k miles. I only get about 40-45 these days, but I haven't replaced the hybrid battery yet.

[alittlelark]

25. Almost 150k

[3Hotdogs]

3. Me 2.

'21 Sonata Hybrid.... on RARE occasions -- roads with lots of hills, 70 M.P.G.

Usually averages 45.

[Pobeka]

4. KIA Niro plugin. First 30 miles all electric. After that about 47 mpg.

Total range about 520 miles.

Since daily trips rarely exceed 30 miles, haven't put gas in it for many months.

Charges from regular outlet in about 6 hours, so it's ready to roll in the morning.

Love it.

26. Loving my Volt! Right about now

All electric when it matters, gas/hybrid if you need distance

[BluesRunTheGame]

5. My Corolla Hatch gets 43 and cost less than $25000!

[LisaM]

6. Yep. We drive one.

But I also remember my little stick shift Chevy Nova from the late 80s got the equivalent gas mileage of the hybrid sedan we drive now. It often got 50mpg on the highway, and also did well with city driving.

[Diamond_Dog]

8. Those old VW Rabbits from the 70s

The diesels got something like 52 mpg

[hlthe2b]

7. Me too Toyota Prius w similar mileage. But even filing 11.9 gallon tank is a bite.

[PortTack]

9. Yup..happy to have my Prius

[snowybirdie]

10. I'm really

sorry I traded my Toyota hybrid.

[CanonRay]

11. Prius Prime

Plug in...most days I'm under 25 miles and use zero gas.

[MissB]

13. EV here

But yeah, really shocking to see $5/gallon gas.

[Mr.Bill]

14. 2021 Nissan Sentra here.

45-50 mpg on the highway. 30-35 around town. Not a hybrid. Sticker price 23K.

There have been some incredible advances in technology in recent decades to increase mileage without sacrificing very much power.

[Calculating]

15. Model 3 here

Gas prices? What gas prices?

[honest.abe]

16. I dont have a hybrid but Im really glad I WFH and dont have to drive much.

Maybe 30-40 miles per week taking my kid to preschool and running errands. We get 20+ miles/gallon with our SUV so gas price doesnt really impact our budget as long as it stays less than $5/gal.

[GP6971]

17. Same here.

2014 Kia Optima.

[Gore1FL]

18. I have an Ioniq

Unfortunately, they wouldn't sell me the plug-in hybrid variant in MO.

[hatrack]

19. I had to go to Illinois to get mine (fellow Missourian) . . . .

Admittedly, I don't drive all that much, but I'm somewhere around $15/month for gasoline, with in-town all electric.

[Gore1FL]

23. I wish I would have gone that route.

From my garage to work is around 2 miles. As it is I only buy gas once a month or less. I do feel smart about buying the high mpg car despite low fuel costs at the time.

[hatrack]

24. Sure better than my old ride - the "Tan Ciera!! Tan Ciera!!" (as in Fargo)

It was an inheritance and therefore affordable, and pretty solid for a mid-1990s car, but lord, 25-27 mpg on the highway got . . . old.

[Maraya1969]

20. Me also! I love my Prius!

[Tree Lady]

21. Me too! 2017 Prius

Get 55-60mpg

Runs great. In the mountains it goes down to 45 but that's just over passes.

[gratuitous]

22. My vehicle doesn't even HAVE a gas tank
