Abstract
Tests show that EPA fuel economy estimates for late model vehicles are realistic under good driving conditions. Both city and highway actual driving tests were conducted on a limited selection of vehicles and the results showed that individual driving techniques were the main factor in a vehicles actual fuel economy when compared to EPA estimates.
