Got my C-Max updated today...on my way to the dealer to pick it up now!
-
I got my new C-Max last Saturday - today I drove it to work and back this is a 80 Miles round-trip about 50% Country Road and 40% Highway and 10% city road. The temperature was about 40 F to work and about 55 back home.
To work I got 44.3 mpg and back actually 48.5 mpg - I am confident I will get it over 50 mpg in a couple of days.
Since we drive another hybrid - Prius C - I am sure this helps since I allready wnet trough the learning curve on how to drive a hybrid.
Usually I manage about 55 - 65 mpg with my Prius for the same route.

My first 38 mile trip to work after the update this morning - about 1/2 of it highway and 1/2 county/city roads. was going 70+ mph on battery for a couple of miles and got an overall 48.4 mpg (without hard trying) - the best for me so far for this trip. I guess the only difference I could tell was the over 62 mph on battery and the better gas milleage at the end. I guess time will tell....
