You c guys need to step up your mpg game. ;)

Here is a 66.1 mpg tank.

 

I'm not sure what the best tank I ever did was.

 

Same here, have to use the car for work, and that includes lots and lots of short trips during prime traffic. Time is money, and the faster I get deliveries done the more I make.

I actually am keeping track of my current tank for the top 20 thread. At 100% city driving, and normal work use it's currently around 63.3mpg, which is only good enough for last place atm, and if it drops much more tonight won't even make that. 75mpg+ seems easily doable in a C, it just needs longer trips, non-rushed and non rush hour.

 

Shoot, thats all downhill, not unlike Hendsonville to Bat Cave. We've gotten over 100 mpg numerous times with and without hybrids.

 

Distance = 695.7 km / Fuel = 28.527
FC (Indicated) = 25.3km/l @ 3.95L/100km @ 59.5MPG
FC (Calculated) = 24.4km/l @ 4.09L/100km @ 57.4MPG
Cost (MYR1.90/L @ USD0.64/L) = MYR0.08/km @ USD0.03/km
This is 60% highway and 40% urban.
Urban is stop and go with speed up to 80km/h (50mph)
Highway is steady cruise up to 120km/h (74mph)

Question:
How did you guys get over 60MPG? Best i could do over a significant distance is 33.6km/l (79MPG) over a distance of 49km (30 miles) doing a constant 75kmh (45mph). So any suggestion on cruising speed recommended to break the 60MPG barrier over larger distances?

 

Tips n tricks? Roads over here are flat, no big climb or descend. What do u suggest is the best cruising speed to get over 60MPG. I got all these with auto cruise, manually, its hard to get it cruising as efficient.

 

I've been waiting all week to run this tank out and post my over 63mpg tank. It was a rank worthy tank until yesterday.

I posted it over there anyways, rank worthy or not.

 

It's a great list/idea but maybe we should create our own list with tips for C drivers Getting a tank over 500miles isnt easy for me without good timing on my 90 mile round trip commute
Actually yours and codyroo appear to be the most impressive as both of you have high avg mph. I'm in the 37-44 avg mph range and typically in the 60-63 mpg range for a full tank (with good weather and some concentration).

 

I got 79 MPG today over a distance of 49km.. but average MPG since last fill up is only 56MPG, was running late this morning and travelled 200km without MPG concerns, even topped out at 182kmh (110MPH) on some stretches. Yet, the combined MPG is 56MPG, and remaining cruising range is 370km, with 334km already done for the last tank. Need to wait for the next fill up to get good MPG. I can see 70 ish MPG very possible huhuhu, tried the gliding technique, a bit tricky because speed bounce from 65 -80 kmh a lot.

 

No, just pull over out of the way. Moving traffic pylons aren't tolerated.

 

Yeah, 110kmh (70mph) is the most reasonable cruising speed I could do.. People here drive like mad, even in the slow lane they are doing over 65. Only in urban and back roads i could cruise at a slower 40-50mph,

 

Best on the display for a tank so far was 34.2 km/l (80.4 mpg), But I've done a few 200 km trips that were over 37 km/l that could put me square in first place. May be time to take up the challenge!

 

Tailgated by a Suzuki Swift, end up racing him speeding over 100mph most of the time and even hitting over 110 a few places. Trip FC sux at 22km/l for 50km and tank average dropped tu 23KM/L with only 4 bar left of fuel.... have to skip this tank for MPG challenge

 

Moving traffic pylons get nothing but distain; show me real numbers like 48 mpg at an average spoeed of 65 mph for 450 miles. Multiply average speed by mpg to get your score value and then see how good your score compares. 3120 versus 2320 makes 86 mpg look positively worthless.
