- “Holly”: 2017 Civic Hatchback EX
- Thread starter
- #1
I've had my 2017 EX hatchback for 2 weeks now, and the MPG has been nothing but garbage. It's averaging around 12, even when in Econ mode and driving like a grandma. I took it back to the dealership, and they said there's nothing they can do about it, since EPA ratings aren't guarantees, but best-case-scenarios.
Well, sure, of course they're best-case. But I'd have expected something like 25 at WORST. 12 is abysmal, especially for such a small car. 12 is more akin to a pickup truck. Heck, my old '91 Integra—a 25-year-old car—got better MPG than this!
I feel like I've been screwed badly by this car in terms of MPG, and I have no idea what to do about it. The dealership won't do anything about it since they say this is normal, but I'm calling BS on that.
