Sport mode only advances the throttle position with a lower amount of pedal motion, so at a steady cruise speed, with no acceleration, the transmission is in only one gear, therefore the engine RPM will be steady. I have tried that though and steady tach reading confirms my statement. Also, the sport mode gives you more aggressive shift up points under hard full throttle acceleration,which would render the entire fuel economy discussion worthless. I am sure that this car can become a 15 MPG pig under a heavy right foot.
