Still learning how to drive a Hybrid, you don't drive it like you would a normal car. Currently getting 41 mpg city and 48 mpg hwy. MFG says 35 / 41mpg. My hwy mpg is going through mountains, waiting to be able to take it on a trip on flat lands to see what it does ( maybe 50+ mpg ? ) Great comfort, got the power when you need it. To me overall 5 stars. I have yet to find anything about it that I don't like. And keep in mind to do this with me it takes alot, I am old school power and muscle when it comes to cars....read morehide

From the beginning of selecting a vehicle to the financing of said vehicle the process was stress free. Myself and my wife will be recomending Warren and Tempe Kia to all of our family and our friends, Thank you from Joe and Nicole Lapella....read morehide

Pros

Excellent styling and features

Cons

Not as fuel efficient in city (29mpg)

I am getting 29 MPG with strictly city driving in normal conditions (no led foot), which I'm happy with, but not quite what was advertised.
