Last few weeks I've been putting on more surface street miles than for quite a while. Still about half my weekly miles are freeway, where I get about 29mpg. Combined I'm getting barely 24mpg. That suggests it's really sucking around town.
OK, I have been running up the revs a little on the surface streets. The car seems to have three modes. Economode, not bad performance but could be better. That's how I've been driving it for the first four months. To the redline mode, when it moves very nicely. I'm not in that much of a hurry, and don't believe the car will put up with a lot of it. And the third mode is anything in between, but that often seems really "sticky". Is it just a few excursions towards the redline that eat the mileage? Does anyone drive Accord EX4 sedans in that mode?
