I have a C-Max Energi and it sounds to me that you folks have just the hybrid one. Because I get 70+ mpg most if not all the time. I went over 1000 miles on my last tank of gas and got 84.5 MPG. What makes that possible is that about 60% of the miles are on electric mode. Just the other day I had 4 miles on the electric range. My trip took me 7.6 miles and the electric lasted the whole way. Coming back it is a slight up hill trip, but with a fully depleted battery I still got 3.2 miles on electric. This car amazes me more and more. When I calculated the savings that this car would bring I have been surprised that the savings have been about $10 more dollars each month than I thought.

I have a C-Max Energi which I love! Yesterday though it gave me a little anxiety. While I was going down a steep grade I was breaking moderately and when I started to go up again the yellow wrench icon appeared. My wife checked the manual and it said that there would be a power reduction. We did not notice and power reduction and drove the next 2 miles to are destination on electric. When we got back in the car it took about 2 miles of driving and then the wrench icon was back. I drove the car home then which was over 120 miles and noticed NO power reduction. When I got home I plugged it in and this morning there was 22 miles on the range. Took a little drive and it was back again. Called the dealer and they were clueless. Any ideas anyone?
