Calculated mileage vs. reported at high MPG
Since learning about EV-glide mode, I've been getting much better mileage than my pre-EV era. There's always been a little discrepancy between what my car indicates is my gas mileage and what the calculations indicate based on how much gas & put in. However, I've noticed that when I was getting 44-46mpg, the 2 numbers were much closer together. I just filled up after getting a 51.3mpg @ 540.5 miles according to the car. But when I calculate mpg based on how much gas I put in, it comes out to 52.6! I've been very careful to always use the exact same pump, and now that I've had 3 500+ mile tanks in a row, I've noticed this big discrepancy on all 3 tanks. Anyone else notice this?
