I am getting 22MPG city and 27 MPG highway on my 2000 V6 Sonata. I do
not hot rod the car.
I see other drivers "going for broke" between red lights and I am
certain that their mileage must be less. Often I can look ahead and
see that the next light is not going to change in time for me to make
the green. I will let off of the accelerator as I approach this
light. No need to keep pouring on the fuel at the expense of the
brakes.
Sometimes the driver behind me will switch lanes and go roaring past
me, braking hard for the light and we will both be side-by-side
waiting for the green. That driver will also be likely to be buying
new tires before I do also.
Another tip for getting good as mileage is to keep the tires properly
inflated. Low air pressure equals a liitle bit less gas mileage.
