Fuel Consumption - How's THAT going ?

[Baz 55]

My average speed is 41km. As I said I drive mostly outer suburban. My run to the golf course is 1 traffic light and 6 roundabouts - probs would only come to a full stop once or twice. The drive is 15km each way. Others is more traffic lights and stop start.
Just filled up with 98 Ron - this time. Done 80 km and its sitting on 5.1l per 100km. BUT I do drive in economy mode, use coasting mode where possible.
I have a Drivers Assitance package which others may not have access too. This is a very fuel efficient mode. Normally I would be in 7th gear at 60km/h

ive seen quite a few people in the forum have the DA package. in terms of fuel efficiency, DA package have eco driving mode and thats about it. i havent done any test to compare the fuel consumption between different driving modes, especially interested in normal and eco, if any one has done it please post the results here!

I wonder what is the average speed you guys are doing, because it can give a general idea of how much traffic/HWY you guys do as well.

I have the base model, 90TSi.
The long term average speed is about 30km/h
It is 7.4L/100Km based on 1534km

Mainly city drive, pretty heavy traffic.

Mines pretty much identical:
90TSI Comfortline
Since owning 7.5L/100km based from about 950km. Average speed is 30km/h
Driving is mainly short local trips.

average speed?

[Baz 55]

90TSI with DSG and DA pack
Filled up with 98 RON this tank instead of 95. 2800km on Odometer
300km in, getting average of 5.15 L per 100 km.
So have reached the 1000km mark from a tank. This has been a mix of urban and outer urban.
Economy mode.

Just refueled the TDI 110.
6.2L/100km, 43km/h average.

15 mins one way travel to and from work, Mon to Fri. All travel below 60km/h suburban streets.

TSI 103, 6.8L/100km, 34km/h average, mainly in Eco mode (otherwise Sport). Commute from outskirts of Melbourne to inner city. Regularly see 4.5-5L/100km instantaneous on the freeway. Doing a rural run this weekend, so will be interested in the difference.

57 kph

and I got the long term average consumption incorrect, it is 5.5 l/100km
