That's the best I've ever gotten on 500+ miles. I guess I need to practice my pulse and glide more.

one major thing that i am doing different on this tank from watching and reading proper techniques, is that before i would use EV mode to accelerate from a stand still but now i use engine power to accelerate to my desired speed ( 35 or 40mph) i then take my foot off the gas and cruise the whole distance on EV. I am also using the regenerative braking much more effeciently.

Im amazed by this vehicle, you can get easily about 120 miles more per tank if you use these techniques properly. My first tank tank got only 480 miles with an average of 32.7 mpg, my last tank took me 520 miles with an average of 35 mpg, and this current tank is indicated 550 miles which is 37 mpg. However, i have 160 miles on the latest tank and it is indicating 39.7 mpg.

My FE is very dependent on my driving habit for the tank. Last tank I got 39.9 calculated. This tank I'm averaging about 37.0 displayed (will probably around 35 calc), and I'm not doing much different other than not paying attention to my instant FE.

There's a lot of analysis done on the Prius power train, especially the rpm range where the most power is produced with the lowest fuel consumption, but we don't have that info for the ESh or Camry hybrid.

I've also started using pulse and glide in town up to 60 km/h. Beyond that speed, the engine runs more often during the glide phase. I prefer using cruise control at higher speeds because it's a lot less distracting than pulse and glide and I can still get good mileage using it.
