<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(tomdeimos @ May 2 2006, 07:06 AM) [snapback]248472[/snapback]</div> anyone can add a car to that list. 48mpg average sounds about correct. there are a lot of people who can barely manage 40mpg due to their driving habits. and seeing as most people with a 2006 are new to owning a prius, it's not going to be really high this soon. i'm accually suprised it's higher than the 2005 and 2004 figures on that site. checking 2005, which i've adding my 52mpg average to, it is at 47.7 for 95 cars. there are a few who are claiming 32-35mpg. maybe it just needs a few more PC Prius on there. seeing as it's easily editable by anyone (just need an email verification), anyone can post whatever numbers they want. imagine some prius hater going on there and posting a few cars with really low mileage, but not low enough to look odd. it could be easily rigged, unless they get a lot of legit cars.
That jives with the Green Hybrid numbers for average with a much larger sample. http://www.greenhybrid.com/compare/mileage/ Sounds about right to me.
