What MPG are you getting from your vehicle?

Mine is a phev and that's what the app is saying. Those are the figures for a trip from Wexford to Tralee and back with a days sightseeing in between, the hotel had a charger so I had a full battery each day. When filled with petrol after returning measured petrol consumed was 4.3/100. To get a more accurate picture of my normal day to day driving, after I filled it I set everything to zero. The app is showing 10kwh/100 and 3.6L/100 long term. I could get a screen grab from the phone but I don't know how to show it here.

Ah yes, that makes sense.

Does a PHEV also charge the (EV) battery from the car's alternator as well as mains charging.?

I'm so jealous of you all, I'm getting 29mpg in my 1.6 Focus😥

What PHEV is it that you have and how far do you get out of the battery before the ICE kicks in? 5.3KwH/100km is incredible and if your car has the normal size PHEV battery (around 9 or 10KwH) then you should be getting over 150km on pure electric........ My PHEV can just about manage 60km out of it's 9KwH battery for example, before the petrol engine provides motive power.

I need to get whatever you are driving :)

Edit: I see you are getting 40kms from your 13KwH battery so there has to be something incorrect with the car's readout of your electricity consumption. That kind of consumption is more like 32.5KwH/100km. There is no way that either 5.3KwH or 10KwH/100km is correct with that distance on battery alone unless you are being towed everywhere. I would suggest resetting the total electricity consumption meter in the car and driving it for a while to get the true reading.

The free Lidl chargers are great though. 😀

The "Pinch of salt-o-meter" as I used to call the readout on one of my cars years ago. 😉

10l/100km, or 23.5mpg in old money. 172 E43 Merc.

It's probably 5.3 kWh/100km overall, including hybrid mode driving, as there's only one trip computer for all driving. By the same measurement my Prius Plug-in is doing 6.12 kWh/100km, but as I know my overall EV mode driving is about 38% it's more like 16 kWh/100km for electric-only driving.

PS: The Watt is named after a person so should be capitalised, unlike kilo- and hour which are not.

Short spin in hybrid mode.

34mpg average after 7000km - 4.5 months of ownership of my BMW 128ti.

Not too bad at all for a 2L petrol with 260bhp.

7.4 l/100km city in 152 1.6 TDCi Focus Saloon. Only just picked it up last week so I’ll be interested to see how it does on its first long trip tomorrow.

And I thought my R was bad!

I think petrol is a lot cheaper where you are though!?

68c a litre for 98 Octane

I do a lot of city driving, it sits are 30MPG on long drives at 140kph

Previously had a 6 cylinder 5 series petrol and a 6 cyclinder A6 diesel, and all 3 give the same mpg for the short drive from cold. On the motorway the A6 was best but thats obvious being a diesel. Other 2 around the same.

44.2mpg avg but have seen 50 mpg on longer journeys

A6 3.0TDI Quattro 286 BHP

I had 2018 A6 50TDI (3l 286 bhp) and in my driving conditions wasn't getting those numbers. Mine rarely seen a motorway or got up to full operating temp so MPG needs to be considered against its usage. Don't get me wrong it should live on the motorway and those are I'm guessing largely motorway figures.

That's what I was getting from my 172 one, they're a thirsty little bugger. The 09 TSI I had before it was always in the 40's mpg, it's best was 47 which I thought was very good for a 09 car, that engine was so smooth and silent I loved that bloody car. The 3 cylinder yoke sounds like a bag of nails, horrible engine.

I tried everything with my one, I did get an update done by the dealer which improved it for about 6 weeks but it was gradually starting to slide back to its old ways, I was glad to be rid of it tbh. The engine always sounded like a bag of nails when it being particularly thirsty.

53mpg - 2008 bmw 520d

I always refill when I'm at over one third, combined seems to be 30mpg, which is okay for a 50 year old car.

I had a roof rack on it which will explain partly why its not as good as yours- but my diesel comparison is valid as that had the same rack too. Its a manual not DSG and it only has 10,000km on it so maybe it will improve with age.

Overall I calculate its costing €750 a year more to fuel versus the diesel doing 20,000km per annum. I'm taking it on another 700km trip this week across the country so hopefully it does better.

First accurate figures for the iV Superb. 1556km, filled the tank €81@ 169.9 per litre 47.68litres, total units used 231, 87 of them were on the free Lidl charger but for accuracy I'm costing them at my home unit rate of 18c. Total spend for the 1556km was €122.58. I'm happy with that.

I had a 2016 1.5 focus diesel and the on board mpg would read an average of 7l/100km doing mainly city driving and after a few months it would drop down to 4 or 5l/100kms. Presumed it was faulty and could be similar with yours?

5.6L / 100kms Mk10 Civic 1.5 (not in eco mode)

Mainly short commutes of 15 minutes
