Manufacturer's claimed fuel economy, at best it's what the car can do and not what it will do. "Can" do, means you have to actually try and save fuel, not let things run its course. You will accelerate almost to the point of annoying people, you will get to highway speeds but it will take you at least 45 seconds if not more. SkyActiv with all that compression ratio (14:1, the highest in the world for production cars alongside the engine in the Ferrari 458 Speciale) and advanced direct injection it should at least be bearable compared to other engines of less sophistication.

It will probably do it, only if you try.
