300mi = 482km

 

I live in Toronto and I get about 400 km.... but I've developed a habit of coasting a lot. I know I know... what do you expect from someone whose last car was a corolla and is used to getting 700 km off a tank

 

I get about 220-250miles(350-400km) a tank depending on how hard I drive around town. I do more highway driving and stick the cruise at 80mph.

 

i get about maybe 260 miles or so before the fuel lights goes on

 

so the OP is getting slightly **** poor fuel economy...but it's not that bad, and city driving is harder on the fuel tank than highway...so maybe it's not that bad...

 

180-200 miles per tank is quite bad indeed.

Apart from city or highway the problem may be his foot

 

I get about 330-350km per tank. The only thing that pisses me off is when it tells you to refuel it usually takes between 45-47 litres to refill the tank. The owners manual states that it is a 55 litre tank. So i am thinking that we could probably squeeze another 80-90km out of the car. One of these days I am gonna bring a jerry can full of gas and see how far I can really go till empty. And by the way I always fill up with Husky 94oct.

 

when i fill my tank with the low fuel light on, i can only put in like 40-42 litres.

 

I get about 200 miles to the tank, mostly highway to school/work and back..

 

wow gentelmen u guys have some really heavy feet.....i can get 300 miles to the tank but thats if ur keeping RPM between 2000, 2500 as soon as u go over that say goodbye to ur gas milage. just my 2 cents and im also speeking as in recent like 2 days ago. i dont know if thos makes a difference but i live down south so i dont see snow wat so ever.

 

i shift in the 5k range when i'm going for a joy ride with the wife or something, but when i drive to work i'm in now hurry and i shift at 2.5k

still get decent mileage, but not like my ES...that thing will go forever on a tank it seems..

 

I can get around 280 miles to a tank, unless i drive spirited. Then i dont even bother looking at my mpg. If i was worried about mpg i would have bought a prius. Lol.

 

80% highway to work:

Weekly average is 300 mi (483 km) a fill up. 313mi just this morning.
Best otter (owner 1) did was 366 mi on a longer trip (@ 32 mpg).

I get pretty consistent 27-28 mpg.

This.

Btw I avg 250-285 miles (winter-summer) before my gas light comes on. My best fuel economic tank was at 340 miles before I got too nervous nervous and filled up. But when I did, it only put 12.2 gallons. I think I could have squeezed out 25 more miles.

 

using the hvac kills your gas mileage a little more too by like 3-4mpg i think
