Poor fuel economy?

[Scotty412]

I have had my Versa for a little over 3 weeks. I have yet to get over 250 miles to a tank of gas. From what I have read this is uncommon. Most of my driving is city driving ( I live nearly in downtown Pittsburgh). I have the 4spd automatic transmission Versa. Is there something I could do to improve my mileage?

I do not drive fast nor do I "gun it" from the green lights. I cruise.

Any advice??

Oops sorry.I did not see the other posts concerning this. Seems like others are having my same woes.

You're on target. I just filled my S 4AT with my 8th measured tank, got my best at 24.61 mpg, 95% stop and go suburban driving, very little hiway. When I got my first oil change, the service rep said, "It'll change around 10,000 miles." Not...I've been reading the forum daily since November. This mileage seems to be what a city S will do, and corresponds with the recently revised EPA results. Be happy with a heavier, safer, roomier and better appointed interior than the competition.
