Best fuel economy

Postby philsra » Sat Apr 26, 2014 7:26 pm

Hi all just wondering what your best fuel figures where for highway driving.

I got the ralliart down to 7.7 l/100km couldn't believe it, driving like a granny

Let's not talk about worst or should we ?

I never got below 7.5L/100 Km with mine.. on the highway.

But if I travel certain roads for a while around Adelaide I can get it down to 6L/100 Km if there's enough lack of traffic, but that can only last for so long lol.. :(

I got 6.6 on the way home in light traffic in my vrx, the worst was 76.8L per 100km (from the initial take off) in the evo :)
I average between 9-10l in the evo usually

How did U manage 76.8 on initial take off, I've had mine say 100L+ on initial take off, and then went up as I left the street, and takes it time recalculating...

Recent trip down for the Canberra meet - cruise control engaged, under the speed limit averaged 7.6 l/100km for the trip. The best I have ever seen on the Ralliart. Very disciplined cruise buddies sven247 and kav91 prevented unnecessary boost, and the plethora of HWP kept shenanigans to a minimum.

In typical suburban/town use it's never below 11 l/100 for me.
