Tiffburg, can you please provide us some details such as:
- Your Trim level (LX, EX, - Touring
- How long are your commutes, and what percentage of them are city driving? It varies. I average 65% expressway, 25% rural blacktop roads, and 10% city because I live in a very small town - one end to the other is only a couple miles at most.
- What is the average speed of your commutes (25, 35, 45, 55 mph)? expressway is 65 to 75, rural roads are 55, and city is average 25 mph.
- What mode do you drive in (Normal Mode, Econ Mode, Sport Mode, combination) Rarely use sport, only for super short on-ramps with a semi coming or something like that (less than 1%), combination of normal & econ otherwise.
- Do you ever use the regen paddles, and if so, what level do you set them at (1, 2, or 3)? No, should I?
- Do you have the stock tires on your Insight, or have you replaced them (and if so, with what type of tires)? stock
- Do you have any excess weight in your car/trunk? no, I have 2 car seats in the back seat that are very light - I'm only 129 lbs & most of the time it is just me. Kids are about 25% of the time. Combined with 3 boys, we add up to ~370 lbs. Once in awhile I get groceries... otherwise nothing beyond a laptop bag, few backpacks & yoga mat.
- What is the average temperate outside when you drive? MI varies,... alot! Made it to 50 yesterday & last week was -12. Regardless of temp, the average is always 29-33 mpg.
- What was your last MPG rating, and how many mile did you drive before filling up your tank? I'm not tracking how many miles/tank as my dealer is tracking every 1000 miles & car is set for his data... Could do it old fashioned way, but didn't see the point. You think I should?
- Do you ever see your battery charge indicator level get above 50% charged, and if so, how often? If not, how high has it gotten?
