Fuel consumption

[Raiders66]

Prior to the Ultimate I had the Premium and found the fuel consumption fairly good especially in the summer. However changing to the Ultimate when filled to the brim it was saying a range of 410 miles. Obviously this went down during cold periods. But now I am finding out with cold snaps the range is now up to 450 miles. This is definitely down to how the car is driven now and it has adjusted itself from the previous driver. I find from the past 6-7 months of both models the Hybrid is an absolute must and is actually very effective.

When I fill my 74 plate advanced hybrid it's saying about 500 miles range, but after a while looking at miles done + remaining, I reckon it's closer to 480,quite happy with that

i have the new mild hybrid the fuel consumption is terrible (high 20s low 30s at best) we changed from the full hybrid average 45mpg we went for the mild hybrid so we did not have to pay the draconian penalty for cars above £40,000 but its swings and roundabouts ,what we would have paid in extra road tax we are paying weekly on extra fuel

Are you sure it's set to UK gallons not US?

[bikesteve44]

Hi madowl

Please can you let me know where the setting is for switching from us to uk gallons. As I am only getting 35 mpg.

[TerryTuscanUltimate]

Found us uk gallons. It’s in general. It changed to 44 mpg, much better for a phev.

First month with my new facelift N Line S FWD full hybrid. Haven't done any long trips yet but happy to report that over 500 miles + I am showing 44mpg. Considering temperatures around freezing and up to 10c I think that is great and expect around 50mpg come the warmer months. Using the paddle shifts in eco mode to increase charging from engine braking is good to increase your EV only mileage.
