Not too sure what my mpg is but on a full tank I get around 300miles and that's before the red as I don't like to run it too low

14l /100km = 3.08 gallons /62m. Just over 20.1 mpg.

15mpg if I drive normally with a few blasts . On a trip to ND whilst 'running in' managed 23mpg & i asked Mark had he mapped for Power or Economy . Lowest was during Topspeed testing when 4mpg was recorded.
