So, some figures from a very recent dual carriage way ride...

All in 6th gear:

32 mpg at 50 mph
30 mpg at 60 mph
24 mpg at 70 mph

Sounds about right...?




looks about right


Thanks, don't like to think there's something up with the car.

So the summary is drive it like a fiesta with little to no throttle and you will increase mileage

mine does about 30+ at 70mph ?
and more at 80mph yes


Eh? Your saying the consumption becomes less at 80 mph as opposed to 70? Surely not.
