I think the fuel economy largely depends on the set-up of the Hybrid vehicles. In the North East, we see Streetlite Micro-Hybrid vehicles allocated to some quite demanding routes, meaning that they're probably set up to be a bit more powerful. I'd suggest that we can only expect this to continue in the future, too. I think, on average, the Streetlite Micro-Hybrids achieve between 10 and 12MPG.

I believe most standard single decks achieve between 7 and 9 - your heavy-weight single decks at the lower end of the spectrum and your light-weight single decks at the higher end of the spectrum.
