Fuel Consumption

[Jazzik]

MPG shows 63 - 67 - after the computer catches up.

Keep in mind that the board computer indicates consumption on average about 5% too favorable. That is my experience when I compare what the board computer shows and what the actual measured consumption is. That would mean your actual consumption is somewhere between 60 and 63.5 mpg. Not bad!

Here’s the results from my test from a 58 mile mostly 70mph journey I do regularly:

Normal driving at 70mph using acceleration - 1 hour , 50mpg £10.10 cost

Maximum speed 55-60mph and only gentle acceleration - 1 hour 10 minutes, 62mpg £8.10 cost

So, an extra 12mpg and a saving of £2.

However, as I drive in the busy times I won’t be doing it again as £2 is worth it for safety.

Apart from lorries you are the slowest thing.  Even though vans should only be doing 60 they actually do 80 and you are swarmed.

I even had someone in a Yaris hybrid flash me for doing 61 in a 70 limit before they zoomed off into the distance at 80!

Although I did see one suv only doing 45-50mph.
