The Prius is one of the few vehicles which actually coaches a driver to be more fuel efficient. Without any effort I average 40mpg in the city and 54 mpg on the highway. see full Toyota Prius review

Better than EPA. If you are somewhat careful with acceleration you can easily pull off 55+ MPG, and in the highway if you know when to accelerate and to break your MPG will be great. see full Toyota Prius review
