Show Your FL5 MPG’s!!!

[JAMSXR]

My highest so far has been 32 and my average for my commute is 26.5, now going up to 28 since its warming up.

The amount of performance and MPG this thing can squeak out is crazy.

Not sure it’s that great, my C63 with a 4 litre V8 and 500hp was very similar to the FL5, although I’ll take the FL5 almost every time.

For a high strung 4-cylinder it is pretty good. My Mk7 Golf R got 20 MPG or less. My Subaru STi hatchback got closer to 16-18 MPG. Even going to a 6-cylinder, my M2 gets like 22 MPG max if I am cruising on the highway at 65MPH (which is not typical, usually at 70-75MPH). My little 1.3L RX-7 got less than 10 MPG when you used the power at all.

Well i know this is not the R but I think I got a real freak on my hands. Kwik Trip zero ethanol. 33 miles of largely open highway each way. WTF right.

You have NEVER seen 57 miles on the trip and still showing a full tank.

Apparently I just chill... you know. 13 mph in 6th gear. In a 45 mph zone.

You are also a nominee for these categories :

I don't think the range estimation is correct

I don't think the range estimation is correct

Its calculated based an average of prior driving history not sure how far back it goes but more than one tank thats for sure.

For comparison I'm getting 42 mpg in a 1.5 Integra.

[geekatthewheel]

I brought pop corn here! hahahahaha Let's say I am just making lots of friends at petrol stations...

 

[Integra23]

Average on the Teggy with 1.5 was 32mpg in mix driving. Same driving and the K20C is getting 23- 24 mpg.

I switched from my summer setup, RE71RS tires, to winter all season Conti DS tires. Nice bump in fuel economy as a result. 24.5mpg to 26.5mpg

By far this is the most fun car I’ve driven that can get above 20mpg city/highway mix. Brilliant car.
