Default What's your AWD avg MPG ? Mine is terrible

Hey guys,

So i just got a 2014 GS AWD F sport and what i realized over the few tanks i have gone through is my terrible MPG.

My car has about 2200 miles
I drive 60% HWY 40% City

I avg about 16 mpg
I just did a small 30 mile journey in 40 minutes see screenshots and it said after fueling i would get 22.7 but thats the highest i ever see and I'm still on a full tank

So on a full tank i get about 250 miles

Now i do see one of my tires is off by 4 psi but would it cause such a big difference?

Also I'm on Eco mode 98% of the time


Please look at screenshots for referrals.

What are you guys getting?

18 mpg average highway with traffic. City 15-16 mpg.

I rarely see 20+ unless I'm cruising on a flat highway at a steady speed.

I'm averaging 10.8 l/100km or 21.8 US miles/ gal with the GS 350 AWD - not great, but better than I averaged with my 2008 IS 250 AWD.

This is my third AWD GS in six years and MPG has been pretty constant averaging almost 22 MPG. I do about 25,000 mile per year of which two thirds is highway miles.

I had Audi A 6's before and that MPG was similar, you don't buy a GS to save on gas.

My average is 22.8 according to the computer from day 1. This is after 15K miles and mostly highway driving.

I get between 19 and 23MPG. Driving mostly city or in traffic, it goes closer to 19 and if I do more expressway, I can get 23MPG+.

24k on my 2013 AWD GS, average around 21-22 all around, have gotten 27 highway once with cruise set at 65 for around an 80 mile trip. I have a round trip commute of 55 miles with a combination of back roads and highway, some stop and go. 16 sounds too low to me.
YMMV

I a averaging 18-20 mixed driving AWD. It has been a shocker for me coming from a TL with similar engine size that I could get 22-26 ave mixed.
