Best car I have ever owned for fuel economy. I routinely average over 40 mpg. Highest was 48.9 mpg. I buy 89 octane fuel which delivers an added 10% mpg over regular 87 octane. BYW, Ethanol blends lower my mpg by 10% too. see full Toyota Corolla review

The gearing which keeps the engine in its power band keeps it at 4k RPM on the highway (I go fast). 30MPG on premium fuel is not justified by the modest increase in power. see full Toyota Corolla review
