OK, I'll give you the accent, thanks for the example. For the rest, though, especially the 2006, the lower end of their range is below the 24-26 MPG you suggested (and I misread 26-28, sorry), and given that a used car is an unknown, wouldn't you think such programs would assume the worst case scenario?
I don't disagree that it might have been a better program if it was also extended to used cars, I can just see some reasons why they might have been excluded. I'm also very leery of used cars and their claims to mpg.

You can't find cars with that mileage?
For 2009;
Accord 22-31
Cobalt 25-35
Malibu 22-33
Focus 24-35
Altima 23-32
Camry 21-31
Accent 27-33
to name just a sampling.
And the same cars for 2006;
Accord 23-31
Cobalt 22-31
Malibu 21-29
Focus 23-31
Altima 21-29
Camry 21-31
Accent 27-32
I don't see a lot of difference there.
