MPG for RX350?
Not sure why I don't get that kind of mileage. I have a new 2024 RX350 AWD. I drove from Orange County to Las Vegas and back in "ECO" with 91 octane fuel, 70/75mph for a total of 490 miles highway. I got 21.9mpg. My 2016 RX on 86 octane always got 24mpg or better on same trip. I now have 1100 miles on the car. Now I have to use gas that is 30 cents more per gallon and a 4 cylinder car that gets a minimum of 2mpg less. Anyone have any ideas?

The 2024 rx 350 and 2016 rx350 have similarly rated fuel economy.
The 2024 RX 350 is explicitly rated and published to use premium gas tough.
The only 2024 RX that uses regular gas is RX 350h now.
I’m getting 16-17 combine on ECO mode
QUOTE=OCRaider;11515592]I have a non-hybrid AWD. It is supposed to get 21 MPG in city / 24 MPG combined (https://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/Find...n=sbs&id=46233). However, I have been getting about 18-19 MPG combined. Does anyone else have a non-hybrid AWD and if so what is your MPG?
Can't tell why my MPG is low. Perhaps the car is still "new" (700 miles on it) and needs to break in? Note that I have the 21" wheels with correct air pressure, have been using premium fuel, and driving in normal (not Eco mode). I haven't been driving all that aggressively either.[/QUOTE]

24 non-hybrid. Normal mode city around 20-22 mag. On interstate, 27-30mpg. Average. I used eco mode for a long time, didn't like how the car drove. So now I just leave it in normal mode. Can't really say there's a difference, maybe 1 or so mpg.
It took a couple thousand to break in & give consistent MPG.

What’s your current mileage on the car. Ppl saying sometimes mpg improving after 2000. I’m still under.

Give it at least to 2,000 miles. I didn't even measure mine until it got above that. Likely still breaking in with 700 miles. I do 70/30 city/highway and am getting 24 mpg. Just what I expected.
