47.6 MPG as of June 1;
48.3 MPG as of June 18;
49.2 MPG as of today.

The point is that my Insight's fuel efficiency is currently averaging what the Prius is advertising.
I bet if you drove a Prius the way you drive your Insight, you would get about 55+ mph.

I get about 40 mpg avg on my tanks, 36 overall calculated from my 1414 miles on the odometer and gasoline receipts.

Seriously, you wouldn't drive your insight more fuel efficiently just because it's an insight. You would drive it the same as you would a Prius, and the Prius would have better mpg.
