Re: Real world fuel economy
Just been looking at the Honest John website 'real mpg' figures. For the niro it is 53.7mpg from 25 people who have posted figures but doesn't seem to take into account the rim sizes. As the niro seems to be compared to the Prius, I looked that up as well. The current Prius [claimed 94mpg (yeah, rig...

Hi. Welcome to the forum. We're leasing through Motability and getting it (hopefully) on 8th November. Most people posting here are very happy with their niro.

Re: Real world fuel economy
According to my calculations 5L/100km is approx. 56.5mpg UK and 4.2L/100km is approx. 67.3mpg UK - not too bad. Still can't believe that UK spec cars only give UK and US galls rather than include Litres as the alternative. My current C3 Picasso allows for UK gals, L/100km and km/L. As I drive about ...

The additional premium over a £23k '2' or £25k '3' HEV would buy an awful lot of fuel. In the end it c...
