11-30-13 Updated - Avg mpg 30.8 in 2014 Nissan Versa SV with 2006 miles on odometer so far

The first tank of gas was put in by the dealership when I purchased the 2014 Nissan Versa SV on 7/4/2013.  I don't know if the tank was completely full or what the fuel cost.  The first time that I recorded the estimated miles remaining on 7/8/2013, the car estimated 207 miles remaining on the first tank.

So far, I have purchased 75.456 gallons of gas in total.  The average cost per gallon was $3.042 before you factor in the free gas from the dealer.  I have driven 2006 miles in total, as of 11/30/2013.  Total cost of the fuel that I have personally paid is $197.03.

The chart below has details for the total gallons of gasoline for 8 tanks.  I am going to assume that the dealer filled up the 10.8 gallon tank completely at delivery.  There would be 75.456 gallons of gasoline in all 8 tanks, if 10.8 is correct for the first tank.  Most of my driving is at low speeds of 30-40 miles per hour for trips that are less than 10 miles round trip.

The car currently estimates that I can drive 317 more miles on the available fuel.  Add 317 to the 2006 miles driven, and we get 2323.  2323/75.456 = 30.78615  avg mpg.  Most of my driving has been at 30-40 miles per hour, so this matches Nissan's claim of 30 mpg city driving.  I have never achieved the advertised 40 mpg highway driving, but I have only driven short highway trips (less than 60 miles round trip each time) at 60-65 mph.
