My 2016 NX200T with OEM crossbar and AEM intake and Toms Racing Powerbox was at 31.2mpg after about a 25 mile drive at about 60mph last night. And that's driving on normal mode. Wow.
Wow nice! FWD? AWD? I saw this post this morning and I tried driving 60mph to work (terrible feeling going so slow by the way!!). 18 mile commute, 8 miles surface road. Best I hit was 25.8 MPG. I have a Yakima roof basket too, so that may have created unnecessary wind resistance which decreases MPG.

its a awd. I also have the OEM crossbars installed too
i live in NYC. Hard to drive anywhere over 60mph. Lol
I drive about 60/40 highway/city and I'm averaging 25 mpg with just under 3k miles on the car. NX 200t F-Sport.
Recently drove about 420 miles round-trip on the interstate at about 60-70 mph with 5 people in teh car and averaged 30 mpg.
I just did a 120 mile trip over the weekend with cruise set to 65mph and i was getting just a hair shy of 30 mpg, actual was 29.9, it was very hot and humid outside close to 90 degrees.
I've had my NX200T for almost 6 weeks. Currently averaging 9 litres per 100km (26.135 miles per gallon) driving mainly in normal and sport mode with a little bit of Eco. This is using 95 RON premium fuel.
I used ECO for the first time, the last two days and must say noticed no throttle difference than from Normal. Surprised by that, pleasantly. Also noted that it stays in ECO on each start up but won't t for Sport+. I'm sure others have noted that but I find that a bit odd.

I believe that's about meeting emissions regulations? Ie less fuel consumption and emissions if the car can only start on Eco and Normal by default
Eco is doable but really difficult to keep up with normal street traffic.
Highway driving ok until I need to speed up to change lanes.
Used eco last night and next couple of days to see affect on mpg.
Distance
Average tank: 562,6 km (349,6 miles)
Longest: 661 km (410 miles)
Thanks for sharing that. I check every tank at fill up, but I don't log it so I can't compare a lifetime average. I recently downloaded the Fuelly app but I'm just not that "dedicated" to tracking my mileage. That said, I do think/feel my average is a little better than yours. My last tank was 33.8 MPG in all city/summer driving. To the best of my recollection, my best tank was just over 35 and our worst tank was last winter (when we had a foot of snow on the ground and below zero temperatures for several weeks) and right around 28 mpg. I am quite sure I've never been down to 24 or up to 37.
Mileage varies by driving style , terrain and weather........winter blend my CT200h loses 2-3 mpg.......My NX seems like 25mpg is the norm but we only use it for trips. So it's mostly HW driving. You live in say Florida vs NH your mileage will be different. Fuelly is great to see what the average everyone gets in all types of situations.
Highly disappointed with fuel economy and range thus far: (2017, base, AWD)
Around town (Colorado Springs) average is about 22 MPG (about the same as our 2015 MDX)....not horrible.
More disappointing was a recent trip to OKC. Speed was between 80 and 85, with factory rails, under 20MPG. Same trip in MDX - 24MPG.
Range is horrible at just over 300 miles (gas light makes wife nervous).
Need to compare with a trip to Denver International....for some reason that trip always yields outrageous economy (34 MP in 2006 Maxima, 38 in 09 TSX, 34 in 15 MDX).
Drop your speed down to 65 and you'll get approximately 30 mpg. These cars do not like high speeds as far as mileage is concerned. 72 to 75 will get you 24 to 25 mpg. These figures are using premium fuel, I've not tried other fuel grades.
