Range Approximate is very low.
I have a 09 gs350 awd. After I fill up the tank with premium gas, I get a range approximate of only 227 miles. On a full tank of gas, I get less than the range approximate. I'm interested in knowing what others who owns 3rd gen GSs get on their Range Approximate after fill up. Thanks. Any info is appreciated.

Idk but I do reset the trip A every time I fill up and the last few fill ups the range approximate was 227 miles. I lose 30-40 miles from full to empty.

I don't even get 200 miles from full to empty. And I always top off. I mostly do city/street driving. I want at least 300 miles on a full tank. Is that too much to ask for from a Lexus? Maybe it's the quality of gas I put use. I only use shell 93 octane

My range approximate is currently at 197 and my trip A is at 14.7 Started at 227 range approximate when I filled the tank. That puts me at 211.7. I already lost 15.3 miles

I even got an oil change last week thinking/ hoping it will help but still getting the same results. I have to fill up every week even tho I drive less than 200 miles a week. This sucks.

don't run heater at all, works for me,
heater BURN **** ton of gas, i didn't know until i start driving an EV, i end up only 60miles on a BMW i3, then i test it on my GS450h, the engine won't stop running, that's when i know heater is what causing the low MPG.
what i do is, turn heater on and heat seat all the way when you need. when your butt are warm, your interior are warm enough, turn off heater and leave heat seat running. your body heat will now generate heat for the whole duration of your trip.
