> Drop down to 70 mph, and we easily achieved 45 mpg.
I bet all their testing took just a single look at the mpg meter (which was "calibrated" by Ford to lie consistently as well).
Go to fuelly.com instead for real world mpg numbers. Miltiple users over thousands of miles report just 37.3 mpg for 2014 model and 37.2 for 2013.
See the chart below for more "scientific" testing. 40 mpg rated Prius V beats 47 mpg rated Ford C-Max with a huge margin (5 mpg better at 70 mph).
