What´s your real life fuel consumption?

Autobahn · 06-08-2009, 02:12 PM

Since over here in germany the gas price is extremely high, I´d like to know what your average fuel consumption in real life is. The current price is almost 1.40 Euro for a liter, that is over 7 US-Dollars a Gallon

300+ miles last week - 80% highway, 20% city: 28 mpg highway, 24 mpg overall

SiXK · 06-08-2009, 02:18 PM

I am getting about 21 mpg in real driving - city/highway. You can do better by a few mpg if you drive conservative.

AK370Z · 06-08-2009, 02:32 PM

Anywhere from 19-24 MPG depending on my driving.

TX_370 · 06-08-2009, 02:36 PM

I am averaging 18.3 MPG... thats on local streets in traffic and about 275-300miles a week.

I'm getting exactly the same.

Robert_Nash · 06-08-2009, 03:00 PM

Around town/city driving I get about 18-19; steady-state on the highway I get just under and occasionally just over 26mpg.

I tend to follow the speed limits on surface streets (or perhaps 5mph over) and tend to accelerate at a brisk pace (compared to most people from stops, etc) and I usually travel 10 over on highways/interstates which means 80 or so on most of the interstates I travel. However even with extended runs of 85 or so on interstates I've noticed no significant degradation in MPG.

L3mming01 · 06-08-2009, 04:08 PM

19.5 about half highway half city 400 or so miles a week.

molamann · 06-08-2009, 04:21 PM

21mpg average here also. About 65% highway and 35% city driving.

wstar · 06-08-2009, 04:23 PM

I've been running around 16 overall average lately. Much lower in the city, but I've been up as high as 18-19 on the highway

m4a1mustang · 06-08-2009, 04:29 PM

18-19 with my commute to work... mostly stop and go with some short bursts of 45 mph.

What is this "km/L" business you speak of?
