Default What kind of gas mileage do you get with your ES 350?

I'm looking to compare...is there a range? Pretty standard?

So mine is getting 22 city driving mostly. Is that high, low or?

Seems about average; I get closer to 20 since my drive is all of 7 miles one way to work (no highway). Doesn't get much of a chance to warm up in that amount of time. Using the remote start doesn't help matters.

My tank average is usually around 25mpg. That's with a combination of highway and around town driving. I use 87 octane gas. My ES is vintage 2009. Oh, that is going by the car's computer, not my own calculations. That may make a difference.

19-22 around town - - Phoenix is pretty spread out so there's still a lot of freeway driving while "in town" . . .on the highway over to California it depends on what grade of fuel we run - - the higher the octane, the better the mpg.

It's a 360 mile trip and most of the time, it's a one tank trip with plenty to spare at around 29 mpg.

according to my Avg MPG readout on my 07 ES350 and my 40 mile drive to and from school each day on that drive if i reset the Avg mPG redout it will tell me im getting around 31-32 mpg

by the time i have driven 340 miles and stop to fill up my AVG Tank MPG is around 23.0 with a mix of city and highway

i will use 1 tank of Preimum 91 or higher octane for every 4 tanks of regular 87 that i use yes i do pump in regular and it runs fine for me no issues

I must be a road racer: around suburbia using 89+ octane, the last time I looked at the car's mpg was 18.3. But that includes warm ups up here in cold PA.

my tank avg. is roughly 25-26, split I'd say 60/40 hwy/city. The average since I last reset it is 23-24. This is never using higher than 89 octane and through the ridiculous temps we've had around here this winter.

I've had my 08 for about 2 months now, and the cars readout has my average at 27.6 mpg. I probably drive about 70% hw / 30 % city. When I fill up, the car says my range is about 440 miles.

2011ES. I've been tracking mileage for the last year manually. Not using the cars computer. 80% city, 20% highway and I consistently get between 21.5 and 22.5 MPG. Only one true road trip of about 400 miles. Got 29 MPG.

Last six months, all local Long Island driving, 20.2 actual mpg average. Computer clocks in 1.2 mpg higher.

Interstate highway trips usually average a hair over 30 actual mpg, driving mostly 65-72 mph.

the tank avg read out does not match real world calculation. best mileage is achieved during spring and fall and is worst in the winter. use both 87 and 91 octane. Not in the same tank. Get bettter MPG with 91 but not by much.

for strictly city driving little hi way, i get 20 -22 per tank. we dont use this car for long dtives at all except once. driving to SAT i got 28 mpg. coming back to DFW i got 29.5 mpg. in both cases the computer said about 33mpg. which is why i dont trust it.
