    Bought a new Mirage yesterday. Love it.

    Greetings from Columbus, OH, USA. I bought a new Mirage yesterday, after considering it for a few months. It's a great car. I'm pleased to have found this forum. I'm interested in getting max gas mileage, of course.

    Best, John

    I had been driving a Honda Accord, and decided to downsize. I spend the weekend trying to learn the basics of hypermiling, which has been interesting. I'm sure I'll be getting 50 mph in the new Mirage.

    I got a new Mirage, too! If you find any interesting information, post it for the rest of us I've gotten a maximum of 4.1L/100km out of mine with only me in it. Just dropped the backseat out of her today, but I doubt that would make a noticeable difference

    Welcome! With hypermiling you should be able to easily hit 50mpg! CVT or stick?
