Not without hypermiling techniques.

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...

If you read my previous post you would have seen where I have got over the 40 mpg mark...

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

Don't know whats better, But I only have put three tanks of gas in her so far.... A few lights to the highway but about 45 mph for about 10 miles, then 65 or better for the next 25 miles then back to a few lights and 35 or so average...... 1 st tank 39.9 (beating her a little to see what she can do)
then 43.9 then lastly 46.3 mpg... not the best, but not bad for a car that is brand spanky new, and I don't drive in a totally pleasant manner.. I like to merge quickly .. I know why no dirt on her yet to weigh her down....

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.
