These data look great - thank You !

Focusing in the English system measurements, I was surprised that at 75 mph the electric drive was still occasionally on.

And the mpg numbers are encouraging. My gas powered FIT only gets around 36 mpg at 75 mph. And of course the hybrid does nothing but get much better at lower speeds.

 

It’ll do up to 80mph depending on battery charge level. I’m at 50.1mpg now.

 

Unless you are in Germany there is NO European country you can legally drive 160km/h. And driving at that speed is just plan STUPID!

 

I was under impression Germans are smart people. Why would they legalise stupid driving?

 

They did it in 1952, the reasoning being that they wanted to prove that West Germany was more "free" than East Germany. If you think about it, there are lots of things that are legal but still stupid things to do.

 

How is ot working out for them? Road fatalities and such compared to more sensible countries.

 

At about 3k miles mile on the clock now, the fuel economy keeps on ticking up. Latest tank logged 58.3 MPG over 465 miles measured at the pump. Pretty impressed.

 

At 10,000 miles (16,093 KM) for my almost a year old Hybrid HB Sport Touring, here are my observations on mileage. If just doing regular driving at 62 Miles per hr or 100 Km/hr on highway and what ever city speed (30 plus miles per hr) with 50/50 split on hwy and city driving, during cool weather last few weeks (not much use of the air con) and my last two tank logged 58.3 MPG or 4.03L/100 km measured at the pump. During the hotter weather with pretty much air con on all the time, it still got about 53 MPG or 4.44 L/100 Km. Worse are winter times. During the month of Feb, it actually measured out at 40.5 MPG or 5.8 L/100 Km.

I think driving habits and outside temperature for sure affecting the mileage a lot. During a run on highway driving which I averaged at 78 mile/hr (125 km/hr), the car's info said I was at 44 MPG (5.35 L/100 Km). Hybrids is the same as ICE, faster speed uses more fuel.

 

That's is the results as I would expect. Your analysis is right on in my opinion as I am tracking the same - however I have not gone through a winter season yet. I am in Nova Scotia. 2025 civic hybrid sport touring.

 

I have same vehicle in urban grey pearl. I am feeling that the hybrid system is not engaging as much as it should be. 🤔 now the weather is turn cooler - I’m in Halifax NS. so it will be interesting. You have snow tires - did you mount them on the OEM alloys wheels or did you purchase new rims. Because the rotors are bigger on the hybrid model and require a rim with a deeper offset. ( ie +50 ) cant find in steel rim to so had to buy an alloy 18 in with the +50 offset.
because the vehicle has no spare and I was going on a fairly long trip - I purchased the aftermarket 18 inch +50 offset and a tire to have a spare - bit of a pain for sure. i am hoping to park the civic for a few months this winter - it is too low and it’s not AWD . We have a 2018 Subaru better equipped for winter driving so hopefully we can manage with one vehicle - but I am very interested how you are managing the snow tires on the Civic. And your mileage concerns.
cheers LTM

I would not say 'hybrids are the same as ICE'... Faster you go, more ICE will run. Over certain speed ICE will run 100% and RPM will go up and up as faster and faster you go.
