I went out to check out some new houses in a freshly built neighborhood. Ended up driving around a few times just to get a better look.
Are you using EV mode the whole time to hit those numbers? I can’t get anywhere near that with my 2025 XSE.

Wait… did I read that right? 22 miles in an hour and a half? Something’s off lol
@Elijah4
I thought the same thing… that time seems way too long for that distance.

The trick is not to use the brakes too much. Try to coast up to lights and stop signs when you can—just be sure there’s no one behind you. Also, try to keep the needle inside the Eco zone and don’t press too hard on the pedal. I didn’t use EV or Eco mode at all for this run.
@Dalen
That makes sense. I still like using Eco sometimes—it helps me keep a lighter touch on the gas pedal.
That’s a solid number. My 2022 Camry top trim sometimes shows similar results. I got 64 mpg (3.7 liters) recently on a quiet highway doing around 60. I shared it over on this forum in the hypermiling section.
