Default Fuel range comparison

Hello everyone,

Let's compare our fuel range readings at full.

IS350F AWD: 320KM range on full tank

I feel like this is pretty bad. What are your readings?
And other than driving style, what could be the cause of increased consumption?

Normal tire pressure 35-36 psi front, 36-38 back

Thanks to all

That hybrid!!! I think that number is higher since it seems like the display cannot go higher than 99.9 km/L. I wonder what the real values are once you drive the car drives a while.

if u do a reset and drive a very tiny amount you'll get 99.9 km/l
once you start driving more and it's calculating in real time you'll get back realistic numbers

99.9 km/l Thats because it runs on electric only when pulling out of the station. I always reset the odometer at fill up to see mileage covered. Low fuel warning comes on around 850-900 kms.

Oh yes, I'm fully aware of that since I have a Camry Hybrid and have made 99.9 show up in a parking lot. I was just saying that because I was under the impression an image was going to show a combined average on a tank of gas, which is what I meant by realistic values. For instance, my tank average is about 14.88 km/l on that car.

Nice!! I always knew the IS Hybrid had better mileage, but was not sure how much. Unfortunately Lexus did not bring the IS Hybrid to North America.

Is the range accurate? I remember when I first got the IS in May it used to be 400 miles to high 300s and now it's about 340 miles when I fill up.
