I've been tracking my Fit's mileage since I purchased it earlier this year. Most of the driving has been done around town with the A/C full blast and no concern(i.e. agressive when I feel like it) for gas mileage.

Yeah it's Manual, Sport trim. Should've added that in the original post.

 

Those are encouraging numbers. I've been considering purchasing a Fit.

I have a really heavy foot too.

 

The last 2 tanks my girlfriends has averaged 36 and then 38. This is with a car that just broke 700 miles too.

Manual I assume?

Does she drive conservatively?

 

The mileage seems to range anywhere from 28 - 42mpg from the posts I've read. I think the major factors are fuel quality, throttle, shift points, elevations, city/hwy driving, and air conditioning.

Does the air conditioning really kill the gas mileage on the fit or is a heavy foot worse?

 

I have been getting 30-33mpg with highway and local.

Manual, and the tank Sunday was 38.8 mpg. She drives like an old lady.

I think a heavy foot is worse. I had the A/C blasting when I got 38mpg on the highway. Because the Fit lacks power from a stop, I have a tendancy to stomp the gas to get up to speed - That really kills the mpg.

 

There will be no stomping of the gas pedal for me, at least not in this car.

 

nice numbers
i get about the same in my stock b20 vtec setup

450 to the tank
roughly 38mpg

conservative tune
