Hi, I recent bought a 2018 petrol Focus ST and was wondering what sort of MPG to expect from it. The first tank of fuel didn’t last me long and I expected that with it being a new car and having some fun. My second tank I filled up from Shell and currently only getting 21mpg. Does this sound about right?

Thanks in advance.

Yeah Ecoboost 250. Currently averaging around 22mpg. Sounds like that’s about right. Any ideas if getting a map will improve things?

Sounds low to me - what sort of driving though? I get low 20s over lots of short trips and urban driving (winter lockdown especially!), but mixed driving should be around 30, and solely long journeys about 35.
I have noticed over longer journeys with cruise control it’s not too bad. Problem is my journeys to and from work is about 5 mile and lower gears with all the roundabouts and what have you.

Thanks for the reply! Appreciate it.
