AMT Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 21-22 mpg average... enjoy it, its what you'll ..mostly...always get Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t_rage Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 27 mpg mix of urban and m-way. That DTE! always going up and when you're nearly empty since the fuel reading keeps going up and down depending on how hard you put your foot down! Anyone noticed any difference with MPG with premium fuel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devilishdeb Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 I can get 30 but not since I got better sounding exhaust from Colin Banks lol Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B16 Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Managed to get 475 miles showing on my dte after filling up and jumping on the dual carriageway. Only ever manage about 300-320 miles to a tank though 😸 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahameJ Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 My figure of 25.mpg average is measured and not from the inaccurate DTE. How? Fill the tank to the brim each time and measure the mileage. Oh dear, the milometer may not be accurate either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t_rage Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 are you using non-premium? I used to, but only using premium now. Fuel level gauges under 1/4 is all over the place though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Trouser Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 (edited) Just did a 300 mile round-trip and averaged 38 mpg. (Avg 40mph) - mostly A-Roads (Manchester to Brecon and back) That's in my Zed owned from new with just over 120K on the clock Edited December 3, 2016 by The Trouser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blocko Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 I've had mine almost a month now. To start with despite the weather I was 'enjoying' the new experience and seeing 18. Then I had a dry weekend and that pushed me down to 12. Since then I had a decent mw spell and have started to drive it less like a brand new toy (and more my age) so I've got the average back up to 25. Luckily I don't care about the mpg. I work only 7 miles away and the mrs gets 60mpg out of her car so the fuel bills balance out. In terms of the display I show the outside temp. The clock is pointless because it's on the nav, the dte and mpg make me focus on economy and thus suck the joy out of the car so I don't look at them very often.

Assumed everyone else did too? The analogue speedo is soooo inaccurate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Outside temp for me. For more useful than speed IMHO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strudul Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Do you guys not live near any speed cameras or something? My speedo seems to read high (due to viewing angle presumably), so I need to know what speed I'm actually doing so I can go as fast as possible without speeding.

Ekona Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 And you think the digital speedo is that accurate? Brave man Chuck a TomTom in your car and you can have three speedos all saying something different. Which one do you trust? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strudul Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Digital is at least consistent and doesn't differ by ±5 mph depending on how my seat is adjusted or whether I'm slouching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 So consistently wrong is better than possibly correct? Nah, the analogue one doesn't differ by that much unless you're going from being 4' tall and sitting two inches from the wheel to 7' and laying down drug dealer stylee! It's just an ordinary car, the angles do not differ by that much that it makes any difference whatsoever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strudul Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 (edited) It's definitely more reassuring.... Can happily cruise through a 30 with the digi reading 32 or so. It's an acceptable tolerance that I could argue if I get caught. If I just look at the analogue, it might seem that I'm doing 32, but could actually be doing 37, and it's much harder to argue that difference. Though I think it's actually the other way round. It reads 30+ when I'm only doing 25, and I don't want to be going slower than I have to... Much nicer to watch the digi when I'm setting the cruise control too.

-G- Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Managed to average 45.8 mpg in the Abarth while driving up the Highlands to visit relatives, plummets back down to mid 30's when back in stop / start Aberdeen. I don't even bother working out the 380's average, I drive it to enjoy it, not to worry about its economy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kinda wanna behave and do a 500 mile tank so I can say I've done it, but god it'd be boring! :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samsniss350z Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 According to the Torque app I get 109mpg out of my DE, admittedly that's in 6th gear rolling down a steep hill with no throttle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
