The Prius is averaging 66mpg UK Official US gov figures. No contest.
Wrong again. It was revealed a few nights ago on ABC evening news
that the mpg figure were obtained in a shed on a rolling road at
54mph with no rolling resistance and no wind resistance and all
drains on the engine neglected. Because so many people complained
about unrealistic government figures, they changed to real life
tests and the Prius is now officially 37.3 US mpg.

Nope. I gave you the figures.

How do you explain this?

Anyone who drives a real car in the real
world

Anyone who drives a Prius in UK urban conditions will get at or near to 60
mpg. A very real figure in real world. Mine does that, and most other do
the same. Boy you are senile.
