Brand new Yaris, very poor gas mileage - Toyota Yaris Forums

hatchy · 01-27-2011, 05:41 PM

Hello everyone, I just bought a new 2010 Yaris hatchback (40 miles on it) a few weeks ago and am a little dismayed about the gas mileage. I've filled up twice since I bought and have only averaged 27 mpg both times. I drive normally, with a mix of city/highway. I also know it is the middle of winter and sometimes "engine break in" can affect fuel economy. However, in everything I read it seems people are at least getting 30 mpg (regardless of the season or newness of the car).

Should I be concerned enough to take it back to the dealer and possibly get a different one?
