I wonder if anyone has ran out of gas yet. I wanna know if there's life after the last bar lol. The most i've put is 11 gallons so i'm guessing that last bar means 3 gallons left. Wow, that's good math, huh?

250ish a tank. The fuel warning is very premature and makes you flip out. It won't display how many miles to go. So you panic a little and go to get gas. Only to put around 11, maybe 12 gallons in.

The OP is talking km's, not miles.. so those of you getting 220-280 miles out of your tank, that’s pretty good (equates to approximately 360-460 km’s). And yeah, 300 km's isn't very much at all. I usually average about 350-400 km's mixed city/hwy driving and ~325-350 km's rush-hour driving (or spirited driving).

Also, like others have stated, I think it really depends on the area in which you drive. I wouldn’t expect similar mileage out of someone who drives within a heavily-concentrated downtown core (i.e. traffic lights every single block) and someone who drives out in the country-side (wide open roads / highways).

I've just been using corresponding settings whenever I can.

Tarmac: Dry or Paved Surfaces
Gravel: Wet or Unfinished Surfaces
Snow: Snow-covered Surfaces

But so far, all my driving where I'm getting 350-400 km's per tank is with about 85% Tarmac and 15% Gravel settings.

i think 300 miles to a gallon is very doable. i have 150 miles and the gas gauge just went to half.
