So I usually get about 300 to 320 miles per tank. I do mostly highway driving. Get about 26mpg But I decided to conduct a little experiment, me and the family went to the newest buc-ees in ohio and I decided to fill up with their ethanol free gas
I was pleasantly surprised to find out that I got almost 445 miles out of that tank of gas. So if anybody is considering does non ethanol fuel really make a difference? Yes, yes, it makes that much of a difference. And I have repeated it with consecutive results.. Just a FYI for anybody who is considering it. It's worth the extra dollar on fill up per gallon

Wow. You're getting like EV range from an EB.

My hybrid: 700 miles per tank routinely with 10% ethanol. (In mild weather.)

And ethanol free is more than a dollar extra per tankful. More like $5 or $6 more.

But up to you to decide what you like best.
