njinaz Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 My question. Purchased the 2019 RAV4 in July 2022. Great car, very happy. I check the fuel use on the GPS screen. It usually says 38.1 miles per gallon. However, I purchased gas during my first 11 days of use and did the math at home and the car is getting 31.3 miles per gallon. I am not complaining. My 2020 Jeep was getting 20 mpg on a good week. Now, it was a used vehicle. Could the reading on the screen be from the former owners links to her app that she was using. I am a no tech and no BS guy and do not mess with Apps and tech gadgets. Thank you for your time and attention. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toyota Owners Club Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Hi....welcome to the Club I would say that the MPG readouts are vague at best and depends on driving styles If you were to reset the system and drive your style to reflect different roads, altitudes and so many other conditions that affect fuel economy and then see how it pans out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie72 Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 I got a 2021 RAV4. I get 28-ish on mpg. Probably my driving style. I fuel up at Costco Gas stations and hope that's the best I can do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toyota Owners Club Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 Driving style does make a huge difference to fuel economy but if you're happy with that MPG then its not too bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
