Who's Getting 20 MPG or Better?
 
For the last 3-4 weeks I've been driving in ECO mode for the most part to/from work (60 miles total) 5 days a week and have managed to break 20mpg. Normally however I drive in Sport Mode and average 18.3mpg on average. I'm running 91 octane, averaging between 65-80mph on the highway.

At the end of the day though I didn't buy this car for good MPG, but I thought I'd try not driving like an a$$hole for a few weeks to see what kind of mileage I could get.

Whats everyone else averaging, curious to see.

My average is 26.3mpg mostly in normal mode driving at 55-65mpg.

Before I got the ECU reflash in eco mode going at 70mph in relatively flat terrain with cruise on I got about 32 mpg!!! After the ECU reflash now in eco mode I get only 26 to 28.

In Sports +, IDK as I don't really look anymore in SPORTS +........I think it is around 18 mpg?

Ditto. When I go on long trips at night and just cruising, nice to have the ECO to get the 26-28...it was at 29-31 before re-flash. But normally, I just care about enjoying the ride, not the MPG. Higher MPG = no fun...Lower MPG = more fun :driving:

How the hell are you guys getting 26 MPG or better in normal mode?

it really depends on the mix of driving. I think some folks have commutes where majority is highway cruising. I can't break 19. My commute is nearly half city half highway.

I get 14-15 in city (99%). I drive the F out of the rc-F

on highway if im somewhat cruising, around 25-26. Then i get bored as a result the mpg drops to 19

lexusrus Dec 1, 2016 05:20 PM

Haha, I know the feeling. I just can't resist hearing the sound in Sports + above 4k rpm, even if it us artificial 😊😊😊

I had a tailwind driving across Oklahoma the other week and got 26 mpg @ 70 mph. Heading back I got 19.
