I was shocked to read these figures for the 2010 onwards Cayenne Turbo, Im not getting much better in my diesel Cayenne.

Urban 17.9
Extra urban 33.6
Combined 24.6

Anyone here getting anywhere close to these in the latest model?

Cheers

Hi Mate, I have a friend who has the new Cayenne Turbo and RRS 4.2 Supercharged, he was telling me the turbo last half a tank longer than the RRS! Matched with the performance its a great package.

Hey Mate,

thanks for the info, impressive!

It does seem like an awesome package, one drove past me a few weeks ago and they sound lovely.

Hope your well!

Carless at the mo, feel like half a man;)
Just checked cheapest used Turbo's are 80k then there will be higher servicing, insurance etc....

I've had mine a month now and posted the other day I got 25 mpg on a run to London and back, wasn't gunning it but that also includes the drive round central London at rush hour

If you drive it hard you'll get less than 20 mpg, but if you use it on a drive to work, mine is 15 miles and a mix of a roads and motorway, I can get between 22 and 25mpg. I thought i was getting more per tank, on average as with my GTS i would get about 280 miles from a tank but with the turbo 350 is easy. But I think it might be a slightly bigger tank

And their figures arent far off true, on the motorway to my local OPC at about 75mph i reset the trip and was getting over 29 mpg!!!!

And the car is awsome as well!!!!

Some cars out there may be specced with the larger fuel tank if range is a concern, unless that is standard on the Turbo?

Doesn't that depend on the size of the tanks!

We sold ours in 2009 but on a school run mostly from cold, we were getting about 10 miles to the gallon. I remember topping it up with £65 and thinking it had done about that many miles.

I am getting a good 28 miles per gallon. It does not get driven that often but I will check. It's an awfully impressive machine.

For maximum smugness, shouldn't it have had an exclamation mark at the end!

smile I was actually about to write about how the new model is such a massive improvement from the old one, as was discussed in another thread with D1ckie - but something came up at work and I just hit send with the rather short response.

No offence meant and sadly no :bigsmugface: smiley sadly!

Apologies if I get the etiquette wrong on this topic - first time I have posted but it seems relevant. I have recently bought a 2006 Cayenne Turbo and am bit surprised to get nowhere near the published figures for fuel 'economy'. I get 15 or 16 mpg over mixed town and motorway driving - no real opportunity to thrash it. Is that all I can expect or is there something wrong with mine?

Sounds quite good, that's what I get out of a 2006 S. The dash shows a higher figure, but calculating the fuel used between fill-ups gives an accurate figure that's lower.

For an 06 model, that sounds about right.

Maybe a gentle steady 70mph motorway run in the right conditions, you may see 22 max.
