Alexandria Sonata Hybrid Owners Get More Fuel Economy

The rise in gas prices has affected all Alexandria Sonata Hybrid fans. As CAFE regulations requiring higher fuel economy get closer, every automaker is out to prove the worth of their hybrids with a hypermiling challenge. Hypermiler expert, Wayne Gerdes and Hyundai temaed up to complete such a challenge by driving the 2011 Sonata Hybrid across the US on only two tank of fuel!

Gerdes started in San Diego and drove to Jekyll Island, GA; a trek of almost 2300 miles and stopping only once for gas. The fuel stop was taken more than 1200 miles into the trip. These numbers far exceeded the Sonata Hybrid’s official range of 700 highway miles as estimated by the EPA. After finishing the second part of the trip, Gerdes had roughly 2.5 gallons of fuel left in the tank. Gerdes averaged 60mpg and used a mer 38 gallons of gas to cross the country!

This particular fuel economy challenge was unique. It was a true point-to-point drive across the country rather than a planned loop. Given the circumstances, the drive is more strenuous than most owners would likely undertake, indicating that they could see even better fuel economy if they use Gerdes’ techniques.

“As a fan of fuel-efficient vehicles, I enjoy the challenge of putting new technology to the test,” said Gerdes after finishing the 2300 mile drive. “This demonstration shows how the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid can deliver extremely impressive fuel economy and range for drivers who value fuel savings.”

“This is the first time I’ve driven a car that ‘does it right!’” concluded Gerdes.
