Disappointed I expected 51 mpg city/46 mpg highway

I was expecting to get this car for economical errands around town. I saw the 2019 Kia Niro rated as 51 mpg average in the city, but the best I get for short hops (for example to work and back...total of 3 miles roundtrip) is 25 mpg average. For slightly longer commutes (for example, to school and back...total 12 miles) I am getting 39 mpg. That includes me driving very conservatively (crawling to 10 mph after a dead stop) and the instant fuel economy is 9.8 mpg. Often I have a line of cars behind me because I drive so slowly. If I were to make the decision to purchase over again, I would not have bought it. I am going to check the gas mileage manually to see if in fact I am actually getting poor fuel economy or is this an instrumentation problem. It seems like the engine is pulled into play when the electric motor should be running the vehicle at slow speeds. I took the car into the dealer to have this hybrid vehicle checked out and they found nothing wrong with it. I am not sure that I will keep this car but I certainly am not happy with the Kia Niro.

I love the way my 2020 Kia Niro looks and drives. Got lots of power in sport mode. I drive 30 miles round trip to work and get 50 mpg On a long highway trip at a steady 70 mph... 67 mpg This car set a world record for cross country fuel economy. Dont take my word for it; look it up I've got almost 30k miles with no issues. I love the dct transmission! It's basically a manual transmission controlled by computer. Two quarts of dct fluid to service. I did have issues with my android auto... It was my USB cable, not the car. If the infotainment screen goes black and won't come on? It's because its updating via Bluetooth through your phone.
