Believe it or not, these 4100lb. cars can coast for miles without losing much forward inertia. I average 22 MPG city and up to 29.8 MPG highway easily.
A car this new should not have to practice coasting to stop signs. You should be getting the mpg's no matter what with something that new. The older ones do make a huge difference on how you drive them. I would have a full tune up done on it. something with that many miles will be little worse too.

just do a basic tune up and see what happens
