Ford Motor Co.'s new C-Max Hybrid has some of the best attributes in its vehicle class: It gets a government-estimated 47 miles per gallon in the city and on the highway, can travel as fast as 62 miles per hour in electric-only mode and is the most affordable hybrid in its class.

But some drivers, particularly those who don't live in crowded coastal areas or in bustling cities, find the Environmental Protection Agency estimates to be unattainable.

Fans on Ford's C-Max Facebook page have panned the car for not achieving anywhere close to 47 miles per gallon.

And Consumer Reports on Thursday said the car's fuel efficiency fell 10 miles per gallon short in testing — getting 37 miles per gallon overall, with 35 mpg for city driving and 38 mpg highway.

Ford's Fusion Hybrid, certified for the same 47 with battery such as Sony PCG-GR55 Ac Adapter, Sony PCG-GRS Ac Adapter, Sony PCG-GRT100 Ac Adapter, Sony PCG-GRX Ac Adapter, Sony PCG-GRX3P Ac Adapter, Sony PCG-GRX510 Ac Adapter, Sony PCG-GRX590 Ac Adapter, Sony PCG-GRZ20 Ac Adapter, Sony PCG-GT1 Ac Adapter, Sony PCG-NV Ac Adapter, Sony PCG-R600 Ac Adapter, Sony VGN-SZ480 Ac Adapter mpg, got 39 mpg in testing overall, with 35 mpg city and 41 mpg highway.

"These two vehicles have the largest discrepancy between our overall-mpg results and the estimates published by the EPA that we've seen among any current models," Consumer Reports said in a statement.

"There's absolutely no doubt: A hybrid is going to be far more variable than a conventional vehicle," said Linc Wehrly, director of light-duty vehicle center compliance division at the EPA's Ann Arbor laboratory. "If you said that I could operate in EV-mode until 60 miles an hour for a period of time, you go a long portion on (the EPA) test cycle without the engine going on. That's going to improve your fuel economy."

But Ford says customers have been impressed with both C-Max and Fusion hybrids.

"Early C-Max Hybrid and Fusion Hybrid customers praise the vehicles and report a range of fuel economy figures, including some reports above 47 mpg," Ford spokesman Wes Sherwood said. "This reinforces the fact that driving styles, driving conditions and other factors can cause mileage to vary."

All vehicles are run through the same EPA fuel-efficiency test; that test, however, is not administered by the EPA. The automakers conduct the test, but the EPA can follow up.
