Angry What's your Range after fill up?

I own a 16' NX awd, non fsport. Everytime I finished fill up my tank, my range are in the 240's. Is that the avg range u guys get? I drive city most of the time, so my mpg is only 13-15 mpg. My avg miles per tank don't even reach 200 miles. I live in NYC and city driving is the most and traffic are terrible on highways. I used the medium grade Premium gas which is 89, cause NY mainly have 87, 89, & 93. My tires are set at 34 as per the sticker on the door.

Any info or changes will be gladly appreciated.

That's LOW. My range is normally in the 350's for warmer months....up to date average is 25.2 mpg. This is on 2017 NX200T FSport AND with 10k miles.

Try few tanks of 93 to see. Good luck.

I thought 93 octane was recommended for the turbo engines? That said, I cannot imagine it would make more than a couple of mpg difference - at the very most. But I would think you would want to try the recommended grade if you are trying to achieve the manufacturer's rated mileage? I have the hybrid with a recommended fuel of 87 octane and my last tank of city driving calculated at 33.4 MPG. The hybrid shouldn't account for 20 MPG difference though, so it sounds like something is definitely wrong.

Ditto!
I run 92/93 octane, tires at 36 (cold) on my 2017 F-Sport AWD and average just under 25 mpg mostly in town with very little highway driving. When on the highway the mileage is close to 30 mpg except in the mountains where it is lower.

I honestly don't track my mileage very often, it's not why I bought the car, but I've found that when in bumper-to-bumper/stop-and-go traffic, setting the transmission to the "ECO" mode can be a big help, but using the "Sport" mode at other times does not decrease the mileage much at all.

Try resetting the computer trip data - in the menu and not just from the odo trip button. My used to say the same mpg no matter what type of driving for 6 months so one day I dig into the menu and found the place to reset all trip data and now the mpg I feel is accurate.

My mileage and range are about inline with yours. AWD but non F-Sport.

We have about 8500 miles on the nx, my wife drives only city miles in pretty heavy traffic and we are averaging 19mpg. The last highway trip we took,a few hours away,, we were able to hit 30mpg on the highway.

First 2 images are after a 89' fill up (247 & 246 range). Last image with range at 240 is at 87' fill up. I'm gonna try a few 93' and see if I get better range & mpg.
I'm at about 12k miles owning the car for about 14 months.

Are you driving City streets ONLY?

When light is on it takes about 12 gal so you are averaging about 20 mpg. considering you are running lower gas grade and if you are in Stop-N-Go traffic then it is fine.

I'm also in NYC. I've had the car since April and showing 20.8 as my average. Mostly stop and go traffic with some highway on the weekends where the traffic opens up a bit. Have used Premium fuel on fill ups so far. I'll have to check the range on my next fill up.
