You can update the MPG for vehicles saved to your profile by following the steps here: Saved Vehicles
Changes you make to your vehicle settings are not retroactively applied to previously created trips, so you might need to update the MPG in your Trip Settings, too. Follow the steps below to learn how to manage the fuel settings for your trips.
Note that if you don't have a vehicle saved to your profile and you haven't previously entered fuel settings for your trip, the trip settings will default to 22 MPG. We use the this to estimate the cost of gas for your trip by using the US monthly average.
