    Mitsubishi recently ran a pair of 1.2L, CVT-equipped Mirage G4 (Attrage) sedans on a 705 km (438 miles) highway round trip to demonstrate the capabilities of the car:

    - A/C was used
    - moderate cruising speeds of 90-100 km/h (55-60 mph)
    - cars were otherwise unmodified
    - fuel filler doors were sealed after topping up to begin the test

    Results: 62 mpg US or 3.8 L/100 km

    Note: these were ASEAN spec cars (roundtrip from Singapore to KL in Malaysia)

    I'm looking forward to getting to try out a loaner G4 from Mitsubishi Canada in a few weeks. One of the things I want to do is graph speed vs. MPG figures at a variety of speeds.

    Can't wait to see what you can achieve. I wish you could score a Manual... but I know you cant. The sedan out to be good for a few more MPGs over the hatch, even though not nearly as useful.
