2018 Toyota 86 Fuel milage
 

I can't complain, at the moment, and I never reset anything on dash, with just hitting 3,000 Miles, 31.9 mpg, and everything posted, 29 something,
And that's with 225s on front 8" wheels 255 rear on 9" ,
I think the lower stance helps, I have tein z flex ciolovers,
Let's hear what your getting,

Your car is looking gooood!

Is it a slow day in Ohio?

My stock 2013 FR-S gets about 28 around town and about 33 on the highway.

I can easily average low 30s if I'm taking care of it on the interstate on cruise control. My average with a lot of city driving is currently sitting at 25.9.

How do you guys do that? Mine is around 21 mpg driving around town and about 26 mpg driving on country roads and highways. I am amazed at people who claim to always drive at 4000 rpm. If I did that, the fuel consumption would be in the teens. I know it's because I drive like I am always late, that's why I do not get good gas mileage, and I accept that. It's good to know that if I restrain myself, I can achieve the numbers that you guys are getting.

Drive like a grandma and keep the revs low = get the best gas mileage
Drive like a hooligan and keep the revs up = gas hogging

I drive like I'm always late and I average combined 31 MPG. Don't drive crazy in town and hit a 78 MPH cruise. I do, however have a decent stretch of back road I drive in a "spirited" manner twice daily on my commute.

How do you calculate the consumption anyway?

Distance travelled (use trip odo) divided by the amount of your next fillup.

The MPG average display in my car reads about 26, so I figure I'm getting 28-30 on the highway and 24 or so city. Obviously rough numbers since I haven't done the real math.

Thanks

Mine varies from 23.6 to 26.9 mpg in that case. Only one tank it touched 27 mpg.

Petro Canada 94

15 mpg, E90.

about 24 on gas, and about 14 on E85.

DD = 29mpg avg. Best full tank mpg on a road trip, 38.6

503 miles divided by 38.6 = 13.031 gallons. This is the only time a tank has lasted me 500 miles.

Usually high 25s. I have to really restrain myself to get low 27s.

I'm guessing you have the manual as well? The switch to a shorter final drive doesn't seem to greatly hit fuel mileage. I'd bet over a similar road in identical conditions, the slightly taller 4.1 ratio would net a minor improvement overall, but likely not a good enough trade off to loose the slightly better acceleration.

I'm terrible about remembering to use Fuelio, so I can only go off of my dash which I always assume is 10% over. I typically see 28 lifetime with a 50:50 mix of highway and city. So probably 26 at worst and maybe 30 at best. If I'm going easy, I shift at 2.5~3k. I don't know how anyone drives around at 4K or higher; I'm patient enough to just use the taller get and get there slower while also saving a little more on gas.

Also, after turning 30, I'm not feeling as aggressive from behind the wheel. I've calmed down a lot. I still corner fast, but I don't feel like redlining it as much.

My last tank was 25MPG.

I converted from KM. 431km on 39 liters. My best tank was just over 600km driving with cruise set to 110km from Toronto to Ottawa.

I also have 4.3 F.D which probably knocks a bit off from the older cars.

Just hitting 5700 miles on my 2018 86 GT manual bone stock and my daily commute is about 90% highway bumper-to-bumper traffic. I drive very casually and have never hit the reset button, averaging about 30.7mpg

53 miles on my commute...50 of them highway...73mph and a 10 mile section at 78mph


32mpg on the nose.

What's your mileage?
Have you swapped out your spark plugs, transmission/diff fluids, tires?

When we had a 13 fr-s we consistently got 32, with our 17 86 we get 30. Probably the change in the final drive reflected here.

21 avg mpg here but I drive 100% in short trips that are within a few minutes and always faster than the surrounding traffic. It's very rare that I am the one getting passed.
Sometimes I just drive around aimlessly to really heat everything up properly. On longer trips getting mid 30s MPG is easily done though.

:lol: answering your own questions lmao

Probably, but what about also the change in the intake manifold / header ? More free flow there, could this net a bit less mpg ?

Those who get higher than 32mpg...do you live in a areas of the country that is flat?

My last few fill-ups, 99% suburban stop & go, drive like a hoonigan/hooligan:

10-24-18; miles: 178.7, gallons: 7.701, mpg: 23.204
10-16-18; miles: 181.5, gallons: 7.907, mpg: 22.954
10-05-18; miles: 167.1, gallons: 7.139, mpg: 23.406
09-26-18; miles: 172.8, gallons: 7.441, mpg: 23.222

The "computer" in my 2013 BRZ manual indicates 20.5

So, worse than that.

I drive according to why this car was engineered, manufactured and marketed. And it's lots of fun.

Later on we'll have our autonomous cars and government mandated meds. "It's for your safety"

Until then, I'll goose the accelerator, twirl the wheel and have a blast and a half.

I just think that the higher rpm reflected from the 4.3 over the 4.1 is the only change here; where doing 3,000 in the fr-s it is more like 3,150 in the 86 at the same speed.

2018 limited 6spd that just ticked over 5000 miles today, but I've been getting around 30.5 mpg, last tank was the best near 32mpg. Computer shows 32.3 most of the time, I guess they are starting to match up now.

But that's the whole point. I did not buy this car for fuel economy. As I stated earlier, I am fine with 20 mpg for having fun. To each his or her own, of course. Still I don't see myself cruising at 4000 rpm constantly simply because I don't find necessary or even enjoyable. Again every person enjoys this car his or her own way.
Peace

18.8mpg

Ahhhh the semi annual mileage duck measuring contest.

When everybody drives exactly the same way, over identical terrain and conditions then we can get together and see how the cars vary. Other than that any comparison is just pissing into the wind.

Getting up to speed faster, getting into 4th/ 5th gear yields better MPG then doing so slower (for any vehicle), however if what you say is true ( which sounds right, seems correct) then the FRS over say 5+ miles in 6th gear (same gear) should yield slightly better MPG then a '17+ 86. Same aero, same tires …. etc.

I was mainly thinking since there is more free flow of air (intake manifold / header) in the '17+ , I suppose it depends how it's tuned from the factory buy that in itself could go either way in helping/ hurting MPG.

BTW, better efficiency will always trump better higher HP/torque (in my book). You cannot have your cake and eat it to, and car manufactures know this. Buy a Chevy Bolt, all electric, potentially low energy costs…. but how is it to drive ? A Corvette, great HP/ torque , but will most likely never be over 25mpg city (maybe if they come out with a V6 version). Handling is also important to me, some cars do it better then others (Saturn = sad-turn). It's good to look at the big picture of what a vehicle has to offer (MPG, versatility, reliability, over cost, etc). There are compromises to be made.

Is there a real difference in mpg between the manual or automatic brz/gt86?

The automatic gets slightly better MPG -- it's not drastically better. Mostly because the A/T is geared taller and that the transmission drops you into the highest gear as fast as possible. However, if you're driving it hard -- it's about the same.

I’m getting 7.8 l/100km (from the display on the dash) - that’s apparently 30 mpg. My driving is a mix of maybe 25% around town and 75% country roads at 110.

Back in 2015 I drove from vegas to twinfall idaho 100% stock........i feel like i got nearly 35 mpg?.....

but thats 8 hours of driving on a 1 lane road with cruise set on like 80-85miles...with almost zero traffic. :D


fast forward to today, I get like 21mpg combine on e85 according to my car. O.o

14.2 last fill, E-95. My goal this summer is to get to 10 MPG at least once. without getting in trouble.

2017 Toyota 86 ,I average 27 to 28 city, 30 to 31 on the freeway. I am not lite on the gas eithe.:thumbup:

You drive on the highways slower than everyone else. Or live in an area warmer than everyone else. Cold effects gas mileage worse than most other things. When I was commuting 120 miles a day on half country roads and half highway, my mileage varied from just over 40 mpg to around 35 with the weather. This was from September to January, and the cold really killed the gas mileage.

Oh come on, you know you win.

People always say accelerating faster gets better gas mileage but that is just totally wrong. Accelerating slower and shifting as low in the rpm band as possible gets better gas mileage.

yes, if you choose to use it auto will get better gas mileage.

2017 NA manual

25.57 US MPG (google converter)

9.2 ltrs per 100km, average taken over 20k km.

As a daily driver, lots of Hwy, lots of thrashing.
