I have gotten good mileage with my SH-AWD since I bought it in November, but not as good as others have been reporting. This past weekend the temperature was finally 70-80 degrees and I drove 350 miles from Boston to Maine and back, and saw a dramatic increase in mileage. I averaged 36mpg on a couple of 50 mile segments of two lane road doing 40-50mph (with some opportunity for EV mode) and 33mpg on a couple of 120 mile segments of highway doing 70-80mph. These numbers are at least 10% better than any previous mileage I've seen since November. So is it likely the temperature after the Northeast winter, or the gas companies changing their blend, or both?
