I believe this thread is very important among HSD(THS) vehicle drivers.
Many people, including you, experience the city mileage is worse than the highway's.
However, the EPA mileage shows the city mileage is better than highway's among the HSD(THS) vehicles.
For example, Prius is 60/51 and HCH is 49/51.
Above 42 miles per hour, the ICE on the HDS(THS) vehicle is always spinning and almost no advantage from the conventional vehicle including Honda hybrids.
I would like to say to all HSD(THS) divers that please try to learn how to drive your vehicle in city(below 42 miles per hour).
You drive your car, you are not driven by your car.
