Who says the FR-S is not fuel efficent
20 Miles on the freeway with about 2-3 miles city driving from the Evasive Mostorsports meet. It dropped while I was at a long light from 40.8 to 40.6
Tree hungers, Prius owners and other hybrid owners ear your hearts out. :burnrubber: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/109760/gas_Milage.jpg |
I don't think i ever heard anyone say this car wasn't fuel efficient...?
|
That's pretty impressive if accurate.
|
Well mine is no where near that bahaahah!
But my 2011 silverado got 30+ mpg on a 100 trip once! |
This was just after I filled up and did a reset. Over the life of the tank, it will continue to fall. But I had not seen my MT 6PD FR-S ever show above 40 MPG so I thought it was kind of cool and decided to share. But it was about 25 miles of total driving :)
|
Not so sure how accurate those things are. Once I had 75/mpg, then switched to 50, then lesser, then back up.

The price and the MPGs are what pulled me into this ride
|
The frs gets double the mpg my old car got.
|
I think it averages 25-30+ mpg
|
If you had the OEM spoiler, you wouldve gotten 40.8 mpg instead. :scared0012:

I averaged this on a 160 mike trip, mostly flatland, with a slight tailwind, sustaining a constant 70mph.

You must have been driving mega slow!
Tonight, I drafted an SUV at 6 carlengths back at 60mph for 10 miles, flat highway, and couldn't break the 38mpg indicated mark. I'd assume if I ditched the break-in oil and drove 55mph, it would get up there. |
I'm averaging 26, but that's with a lot of city driving. I think I'm in the mid 30s for highways, and that's averaging 75mph.
|
It's easy to get good gas mileage as long as you can stay out of the pedal (it is just too much damned fun to wind the car up to redline).
|
I did 600km with one and a half fueltank, I don't mind about how much fuel my car drink, but I think It's little high, but again as I said, I don't give a f***. haha
|
The car gets amazing highway mpg (35-40 with a MT), but as soon as you make a few stops it goes down to low 30's. Something about the transition area between mostly port to mostly direct fuel injection eats a lot of gas.
|
My life average is 25.2 mpg - best of 30.2. I'm happy with it. :burnrubber:
|
I've been driving like I stole it and still getting over 26mpg.. mostly city and with snow tires fitted. Back to summers and I'm sure I'd be back up around 28-29 again without issue. More highway I'll be over 30mgp easy.
|
i drove over 1500 miles this weekend on a roadtrip, boston to miami. full cruise control drving between 70-80mph and got 31mpg. i think it could do better considering its only a 2.0
35-36 HWY wouldve been awesome, just my opinion |

lol.. sarcasm?
|
coming from my rx-7's which were running at about 7mpg highway... this car is more than 100% increase!

On winter tires and winter gas I'm averaging between 27 and 28 MPG. It was 29-30 on summer tires and gas. I would expect the MT to do a bit better. C&D averaged 24 AT and 29 MT on summer tires.
|
I think the primary reason the AT cars do better is the taller trans ratios. .. regardless a MT car should be capable of 30mgp easy.
