2010 Honda Fit Sport with a few k in accessories added, rated 27/32 MPG.
I live in clusterfuck land combined with a heavy foot I usually don't get 27 in the city maybe 23-24, I added a K&N air intake so I traded a few MPG for quicker take off/acceleration. I have driven it to florida 3-4 times and on cruise blows past the rated 32 and usually gets high thirty to 40+. So I lose in the city but gain on the highway so it averages out to ratings. I'm not a fan of hybrid as I think the increase in repair bills will offset any advantage. Just grab a small gas car honda, toyota, nissan as repairs will be cheaper and high twenties to high thirties MPG is good enough.

MPG ratings are if you push the gas slow, coast to stoplights etc... When coming from a 350 motor to a 4 cylinder it would be very hard to drive it like a grandma. I floor my honda multiple times a day.
