It must be another hypermiling technique ... less fuel in the tank = less weight = better FE

Reminds me of the 1934 Mercedes "silver arrows" ... the F1 team stipped the white paint off the car in order to meet the weight limit for the first race of the season (the car with paint was 751Kg, the limit was 750Kg).

Lucky the yaris paint is already almost non-existant so hypermilers don't have to go through the trouble of removing it.
