Everyone will be too busy putting the foot into it, haha. 3 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/43910-fuel-consumption-merged-topic/page/80/#findComment-701781 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAXR6T Member 187 Member For: 22y 7m 2d Location: Melbourne Posted 04/07/08 08:27 AM Share Posted 04/07/08 08:27 AM Well I do a mix of both Highway & city and I did do a fuel test. I got 484km to the tank. Trip computer said 20km to empty...I don't really like letting it get down that low. I returned figures of 12.4lt per 100km. It wasn't babied either. So far this tank it's looking even better. When these things are run in I reckon I will be getting mid to high 10's. Absolutely fantastic for such a fast car.Greg Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/43910-fuel-consumption-merged-topic/page/80/#findComment-701792 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taken it to work twice into ipswich and down the coast. I have gave it a few good kicks and the first tank full the computer said it averaged 9.4 ltr/100 klms. The range function says that I still have another 125 klms left. On another note I have a ba none turbo ute for work. I average 8.4l/100klms 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/43910-fuel-consumption-merged-topic/page/80/#findComment-701817 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kojihama Member 12 Member For: 16y 11m 7d Posted 05/07/08 12:04 PM Share Posted 05/07/08 12:04 PM (edited) Thanks guys.. fairly similar to mine.. I drove up from Brissy to the Eumundi markets today and managed to drop mine down to 14.2L/100kms from my 18.4L/100km... I made sure I reset my fuel used counter and only did 24L for the 200k return trip.. which is quite good. I think it'll probably settle around the 14-16L mark within the city with stop / starts.

I was hoping they'd return ~10 on the freeway at 110km?I understand the higher figures due to 'running in' period 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/43910-fuel-consumption-merged-topic/page/80/#findComment-702257 Share on other sites More sharing options...
