What's your MPG for higher mileage cars?

Jimjamz · 02-09-2022, 06:06 AM

Since I switched to my Akra catback I've noticed my fuel consumption over the car's lifetime has gone from 12.1 l/100km (19.4mpg) to 11.6 l/100kml (20.3 mpg). I think this is mainly due to my shift from defaulting to Sports Plus engine to efficient/Sports for most driving.

What is everyone else getting and what kind of driving are you doing?

Still about 18-19

I'm 19.0mpg even. Mostly highway miles and the remainder high revving street miles.

I'm 100% sport plus throttle and traction off. The car is so predictable unless it's really cold, below 40 degrees F, which is rare where I live.

Haha, I hammer around town and I get 10mpg. More conservatively, I get 15 mpg. This car sucks gas and it has a suck ass 12 gal tank. Ridiculous combo.

Agreed. The 12 gallon tank is absurd.

They kept the standard 2 series tank. The size of that tank made sense for less fuel hungry engines but is smallish for a full fruit S55.

I get about 350-400km/tank (215-250 miles).
