You're driving longer with the engine cold, oil is thicker, the air is denser, you are pushing slush and snow out of the road, the engine is new and tight, are your tires fully inflated?, the car is so much smoother that you're driving faster ... all these are reasons for your your observed mileage.
My '06 2.0TCV, with 400 or 500 extra pounds of weight (and one fewer gears), and a whole 5000 more miles than yours, gives an average 30+ in suburban/freeway Tampa Bay.
