  1. Thanks...glad to hear another Canadian's opinion.....I've been averaging 7.8L/100km ut it's been cold as hell in Calgary for 2 weeks straight. I was recently riding in cab that happened to be a Priuis....the guy was getting in the 5s during a similar cold spell which caused me concern. Last summer.....a solid 6.2L/100km on a long run average....various trips I'd be in the mid 5s
  2. Heats on as it was too damn cold to not have it on....windows would frost over from the inside I'll be curious to try the grille covers It's actually warmed up to about 24F....I'll do a comparison
  3. OK...ran the Engineering Test Mode this morning Outside temp -18C or 0F Coolant before I started the engine was at -6C or 21F Left the house at 60C or 140F Trip to work was 18km or 11.2 miles one way 4 km/2.5 miles - 69C or 156F 10 km/6.2 miles - 67C or 152F 14 km/8.7 miles - 70C or 158F 17km/10.6 miles - 63C or 145F 18km/ 11.2 miles - 64C or 147F Highest temp noted 74C or 165F Lowest temp note - 55C or 131F Very interesting...not even close to the operating temp for the ICE based on what I've read on the forums
  4. Sorry for the post but want to get to 5 so I can private message about the grill covers from PTJones
  5. Thanks C-maxSea......hopefully Canada brings in a good haul this time...so far so good!! You need to talk to my wife as she's the baby from North Carolina originally...I like it cold!! :) I will try these tips....29 just seemed so low
  6. Thanks for the tips....I'm guilty of the heated seats but damn...they are cold in the morning! I know the whole cold air impacts and weather.....I thought the update we received covered off closing of the grilles... It's a learning curve.....it's not the silver bullet I thought it would be.....much better than my Smart Car...
  7. Fair enough I'm not trying to maximize the electricity side but I'm not gunning it. Average 30 miles per hour Daily trips downtown to work 25 miles round trip Weekends...sometimes on the freeway at 60 so let's say average of 45MPG Roads are clear
  8. Just joined the site as I'm starting to get really upset about my mileage on my 2013 Cmax....I have 16,000 kms....or 10,000 miles on . It has been cold for a long time up here in Calgary, Canada (averaging -4F in the daytime) but I'm average 29 MPG in the city...7.9 L per 100km. During the summer, the best I could do was 6.2 L per 100km or 37.9 MPG. Something seems to be wrong having read all of the awesome MPG for other users....
