When I made the mistake of calculating dollars-per-trip with gas prices where they are, I realized it was a terrible idea to do that math, and I should just keep swiping my card at the pump and loving every minute behind the wheel.
You will be at the pump. A lot. In sport plus, it’s pretty absurd actually.

Sport and sport plus just change the gas peddle sensitivity, it should have no effect on gas mileage. Perhaps you drive more aggressively when in those settings?
When in auto mode, the setting that impacts gas mileage the most is the drive mode (D1, D2, D3) and of course how fast you drive and accelerate. In sequential mode, it's all about how you drive.
Am I wrong?
