Car Forum / Honda Cars / January 20062006 civic mileage
Hi everybody. I'm thinking about a new Civic in the coming months, and curious if any of you who have already bought one are getting the mileage ratings posted, or above or below that? I drive average to heavy-footed, so I'm curious what real-world figures are popping up out there. I have a 97 chrysler concorde 3.5L with 150K and a burned valve causing noticable vibrations. I'm either looking at an engine overhaul, or a new vehicle. Thanks for any input you may have! Michael 18 to 25 in town, over 30 on the highway +70 MPH. > Hi everybody.

You should be getting better than that. Once it's broken in, it should improve. And if you are in a winter climate, that is a factor too. Nope, that what it's good for in town. My '90 Integra only does 21 tops in town. Both cars have automatic transmission too. > > 18 to 25 in town, over 30 on the highway +70 MPH. > > You should be getting better than that.

My '06 Civic Coupe EX has about 950 miles on it. I have a mix of city and hwy and get about 27-29MPG here in Oregon. I am not very heavy-footed per se, but not like grandma either!

I get that on an 01 Prelude -- 27 with a mix of 70/30 city and hwy. Despite the low mileage on your Civic, would think the mpg would be better. > I am not very heavy-footed per se, but not like grandma either! > [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > > > > Michael >> My '06 Civic Coupe EX has about 950 miles on it. >> >> I have a mix of city and hwy and get about 27-29MPG here in Oregon. >> > I get that on an 01 Prelude -- 27 with a mix of 70/30 city and hwy.

With just 950 miles on it, the car is probably not broken in yet. > >> My '06 Civic Coupe EX has about 950 miles on it. > >> [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > With just 950 miles on it, the car is probably not broken in yet. Yes. However, you would typically not see more than a 10-15% improvement once the engine is completely broken in. I also use an 03 Civic LX 5 spd as a to work driver with a 70/30 mix of city and hwy. Mileage is right at 35-38. |
