I keep it in normal mode and so far it's been around 16-17MPG mostly city driving. If I'm on the freeway, I can get it up to 21-22MPG.

I can only hope that it gets better as it breaks in more. But no one should be complaining, this car was meant to do one thing and it sure as hell wasn't meant to save on gas.

I believe that is more like 19 MPG if it is just when the light came on.

Why the hell are you guys complaining about 19-24 mpg?? Also, why are you comparing an Evo(one of the world's best sports cars) to cheap, slow econoboxes?

You want good gas mileage? Go trade in your Evo for a Geo Metro. You want an amazing AWD sports vehicle? Then stop whining.
