Does this mean I can't trust fueleconomy.gov?
« on: February 18, 2013, 12:59:58 am »
I've been noticing this a lot; multiple entries for the same car at different economy ratings. Does anyone know why this is happening? Can I trust any of these ratings, or are they all clearly mistakes.

Which site should I invest my trust in when it comes to fuel economy ratings?

Yea, because some cars have the same displacement, but a hotter engine/version between models.

In the Honda, the base engine was 106HP.  There was also a 115 HP and a 127 HP version. All 1.6L

Make sense?
