Yaris Sedan gets better mileage than Yaris Hatchback - Toyota Yaris Forums

Nice links but they do seem inaccurate.

23 mpg in the city for the sedan, but 44 on the highway? It does a lot better than that in the city. The highway number is achievable if you keep it under 60-65 mph.

44 mpg is achievable at 70 mph.

Not without hypermiling techniques.

[such as high pressure in the tires]

I have got 44 mpg @ 70 mph, tires at 32 psi, 100+ degress outside, with the AC on 3 and 4, the whole trip. I don't call those hypermiling techniques....

Figured @ pump after fillup, or an instant reading, looking at a meter, going down the highway? I drive 70 mph, and usually average better than 43 mpg at fillup time, running 32 psi, etc...

Hills or no hills? That's more the question.

Best I can get on a daily commute that involves up and down hills often, was 37.3mpg. And that's with an average speed of about 68-70, no AC. (Not that I noticed a difference when the AC was running.)

Mainly flat. East Tx to Galveston(through Houston) and back. My daily commute which is about 38 miles one way is filled with massive hills. The best I can get is 37.6 with the AC running.

Ahh. At least now I know I'm not the only one who can't get that magical 40mpg. I was beginning to think I was doing something wrong...

Yaris sedans are capable of going 400,000+ miles without repairs, while Yaris Hatchbacks are lucky to go 50,000 miles without repairs

I got my 5 speed sedan as a cash for clunckers deal. < 4300 miles, 40+ miles to date for all the gas. I got all of 44mpg on a road trip at 100 kph. That is 62 miles per hour. Did some slow speed driving that weekend, too. This Yaris has been near triple digit speeds. It can be done.

I just made a trip from Bristol down to Gatlinburg and back. Mostly 70 MPH Interstate, and really congested slow traffic through the Pigeon Forge area, with a few miles up a twisty mountain road at 45 MPH to Gatlinburg. Averaged 44.2 MPG for the trip.
