There has got to be a difference in tuning or efficiency between '10/'11 models and the '13/'14 models. Pushing it hard in the hills gives me about 45 - 48 MPG. Average, over a fair mileage of 28260 or so, gives me 42MPG. City commuting drags the average down to that 42MPG. I suspect that Cormanus ('11model), and he will correct me if I am wrong, does a little better but I would be surprised if it's an average significantly in excess of 50MPG.
