      I am considering changing my spark plugs. Now I am getting around 315 miles per full tank.
      I had Kia Niro hybrid 19 plate, I was getting almost 500 miles and sometimes even more.

    Just changed my old aftermarket fuel injectors to new $31 aftermarket Injector set... mpg just went from avg 36mpg to 51 mpg...wow! Can't believe old injectors were hurting mpg that much... so happy to be back above 50mpg.
    Thanks!

    I have a 14 Plug in and had the master brake booster done at the shop and brought it back because it went from 44 to 35 mpg. They haven't figured out a problem, and I'm not throwing any codes.
    I have 195k miles, so thinking at 9 years, maybe the battery.

      Troll, ur on the wrong channel... spread your propaganda some place else. I've owned two prius's and the only thing that stopped them from running were accidents. I own 2021 Corolla Hybrid, was getting 60miles per gal until I bought new tires, now only 48 to 57, but it is summer here in Tucson and that effects gas mileage. The combination of the wrong tires and summer heat = shyty gas mileage, well not shyty, just not supernatural gas mileage. Yeah, I know spoiled... poor me !!
