Re: Hy Highlander MPG vs Non-hybrid equivalent
Yeah, the EPA "numbers" are just tests, like in a classroom, they have absolutely nothing to do with real world driving conditions. The only purpose for them is to be able to compare vehicle to vehicle because they were tested the exact same way so you know they can be compared.
Comparing real world numbers can be even more tricky because people's driving skills, the terrain, traffic, vehicle condition etc. all become factors that weren't in the EPA tests.
