We all knew that ALL auto mfrgs. have been padding their MPG figures all along. They get their #'s while running on a Dyno thus no wind resistance, and only 2 tires for rolling resistance. There's no way real world MPG can come close to Dyno MPG.
Curious why this is a manufacturer problem and how they can pad their EPA MPG figures. They do the testing according to EPA requirements and submit the results to the EPA. The EPA checks and approves the results. The EPA also does it's own testing on 10 to 15% of the vehicles. The blame should lie with the EPA for their mandated testing procedures and their approval of the test results, not with the manufacturers.
