The vehicle comfort and ride are great - MPG not so much
Upon purchasing the vehicle, we immediately put 1500 highway miles on it - the most forgiving type of driving for evaluating MPG. We were getting 6-7 MPG less than advertised. When we then settled in to drive the car normally for work, that dropped to 8-9 MPG less. This is a significant difference from the advertisements. We drive on ECO, we accelerate slowly, we use the car computers whenever possible. There are times when the car has an almost full battery and still runs the gasoline engine for no discernible reason, and there are no controls to specificy modify this decision. We got a hybrid for the gas mileage, and then got a Hyundai for the warranty to help cover the requisite batteries. We would have more seriously entertained other brand' non-hybrid offerings s if we had realized how far off the MPG was from advertised, which would have precluded the need for a battery and subsequently negated the need for a Hyiundai warranty. Contacting the dealership and was given the "well, everyone drives differently" schtick.
