Few modern gas cars will get over 50 US MPG in city usage. 35 MPG is probably a better estimate for the hybrid fleet which is still much, much better than gas cars of a decade ago.

My 2011 golf gets 40mpg real world mileage. Tiny engine, but I don’t need to impress anyone with my car

That's exceptional fuel economy for that car, typical looks like 25-35 MPG. If you are more skilled than average (I'm guessing so), don't have too many short trips, and live somewhere relatively flat no doubt it's doable. Edit: while I was looking I checked out the Prius and RAV4 and it turns out median reported MPG is around 49 and 39 so maybe my intuition is tainted by living in a hillier than average area.

		I do live in the Netherlands, and drive conservatively and it is also manual and the smallest engine, all of which might help
