Toyota Prius Gas Mileage (MPG)

Toyota Prius Gas Mileage (MPG):

Unlike other fuel economy surveys, TrueDelta's Real-World Gas Mileage Survey includes questions about how and where a car was driven. So you can get an idea of the Toyota Prius's real-world MPG based on how and where you drive a car.

If you are not a TrueDelta member, you can see only five Toyota Prius MPG gas mileage averages for each powertrain. Log in or join us to see them all.

2011 4dr Hatch 98-horsepower 1.8L I4 Hybrid

The gas mileage of the Prius is unbeatable. With the price of gas climing at the pump it was time to buy the Prius.

Great, a number one factor with high gas prices.

The Prius 50 MPG mixed driving is realistic. The worst MPG I have seen is 45 MPG and the best was 56 MPG. I can only compare that to tests results I have seen where the Insight is 38-42 MPG

52 mile commute to work every day and averaging approximately 50 mpg. Reduces USA dependence on foreign oil and carbon footprint.

It gets 40+ mpg no matter how badly you drive it.

When not driving aggressively, fuel economy exceeds EPA estimates.
2010 4dr Hatch 98-horsepower 1.8L I4 Hybrid

High! Highest so far - 60 mpg on one 300 mile trip.
2010 4dr Hatch 98-horsepower 1.8L I4 Hybrid
CVT FWD
I actually think the fuel economy is very similar for the MINI Cooper and the Prius, because I drive mostly in the city.
2009 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid
CVT FWD
Using less fossil fuel with this Super Ultra Low Emissions Vehicle makes it the cleanest vehicle available in South Africa.
2009 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid

Averaging 42-45 mpg in first 45 days -
2008 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid

Best fuel economy available at the time I purchased, and I was getting immediate results.
2008 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid

47mpg city what not to like
2008 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid

Prius does average 41 MPG for me, even in city driving with frequent stops.
2008 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid
CVT FWD
Bought this during one of the coldest winters in Utah. Still got 44 mpg. Weather is beginning to warm up now and get 47 mpg. Hopefully it will continue to go up in summer although the ac will maybe drive mpg down.
2008 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid

Reduce Fuel costs.
2008 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid

It gets between 47 and 51 MPG
2008 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid

excellant, after 15,000 miles fuel mileage average is 48 mpg.
2008 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid
CVT FWD
Its very consistent. If I pay attention to how I drive it generally returns an average of 42-44 mpg (city). On long trips if you have a tail wind the mileage can easily get up to 60+ mpg. All that without any kind of hyper mile behavior.
2008 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid
CVT FWD
Getting more than 50mpg!
2008 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid

40 mpg. even with average of 25 miles/day, hilly areas. I only fill up the gas tank every other week.
2008 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid

Im driving over 600 miles a week to and from work. Just made sense to go with the Prius.

The fuel economy is great, of course, but not the primary reason for purchase (a Corolla is more economical over the life of the car).
2008 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid

It gives me the power to choose to be ultra-efficient and drive "frugally" with a light foot and other hypermiling techniques or to just drive and still have a lighter carbon footprint than ever before. I ma in control.

Have had this vehicle since 5/05 and saw an average of 55 mpg. For the past year it has dropped to 52 mpg but we feel that maybe because of amount of ethinol now mixed in gas.
