cup mpg

[BAZ172]

can anyone with a cup 172 tell me what mpg reading they are getting on the trip computer mine is telling me 25-27 mpg and i am running it in! thought i should be getting low to middle thirties at least????

I havent got a CUP, but I regularly TON it up and down the motorway; and acceellerate quiclky from lights, and I get about 33mpg.

BAZ?? What fuel are you using?????

 

[zoog]

are you sitting in traffic most of the time?

I get 45 mpg on a decent B road at about 60mph - still having a laugh overtaking etc.

I get about 35-36mpg at about 85-90 cruising on m/way

I get about 30-32 driving around town.

When calculated properly it seems the computer is about 2 mpg out for the worse

hence 45mpg = approx 43mpg

When I ran it in I got near 40mpg

I think you should speak to Renault......

touching 34mpg at the mo 8000miles

 

[RSTDL]

45 mpg seems a bit high - renault figures give a combined mpg of about 34 do they not?for a 2.0! My 1600 is three years old and only manages 35mpg!

I get 27 mpg in London, maximum ever was 42 MPG trying for fun on M-way and typical mway is 35-7

 

[McBunny]

my usual on way to work is 29-32 but on a run 39-43 oh and been a tit 22+

I get 40 at worst on the computer, and I dont drive like a tart.

apparently however the computer is as accurate as a long term weather forecast.

To Put it into miles, to fill up costs me £32 from empty using optimax, and I get about 320 -330 miles.
