I’m starting to see a lot more of these. Honestly if you want something with epic gas mileage and a pile of driver assistance tech features - this is a great option.

It’s a lot smaller than people think though.

I see one everyday. 46MPG in city driving on the mid level trim even with a leadfoot. And you’re right about the size.  It’s more of a slighly tall hatch than a compact crossover but still plenty of space.

I forgot to mention that last night I got dusted by an Optima Hybrid which made me LOL in my car because he came from so far back.

Wait, do you have one? Kinja won’t let me zoom, is that an EX or a Touring? So the MPG rating is holding up to real world driving? Are you using a leadfoot because...you have to? haha

EX with all the safety tech aka Unnecessary Over-reactive Beeping Package. MPG is worse in the winter, drops to around 40.

It’s my wife’s car which I drive a couple of times a week because gas is getting expensive and my car gives 17MPG on a good day (95% city/suburban driving) on 91Premium.That will also explain the leadfoot because I am used to 328 HP and this has decent torque (195 Lb Ft) due to the battery but no Midrange or Topend power.(130ish HP)

wow, when your mpg get’s “worse” and hits 40 that’s pretty fantastic.

It gets around decent though? Not so underpowered that you feel like you can’t merge on the highway properly?

And yeah it does seem to be jumping back up. Your description of the tech package is hysterical by the way!

Not at all. One of the very first things I checked on the test drive on a 70mph freeway. 0-60 in low 9 seconds.
