Average Gas Mileage - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Weird. I'm still in break-in period right now. ~250 miles. and I'm averaging less than 20. My first fill up not that long ago was at ~200 miles. This is mostly city. When I'm on the freeway, it does really shine in mpg. Averaging around ~40-45 (just by looking at the constant changing mpg on the cluster) on 6th gear going ~60-65.

23,000 miles hard driving mostly highway and I'm getting 29.9 mpg 93octane fuel

Kamakanani0 · 03-04-2013, 06:46 PM

24mpg here

tokiokun717 · 03-04-2013, 07:08 PM

Getting around 31mpg mostly highway though. I did have a couple times where I had a lot of city miles/ sitting in traffic and got around 26.

I forgot to add - a few people I told didn't know this.

Through the display function you can add a notification that shows an up arrow at the optimum time to upshift for best MPG practices. (opposite function of the shift light indicator lol)

That upshift light is around 3k rpm. I've noticed it next to my gear indicator.

Normally around 27-28 mpg. Mixture of HWY / city, short trips.

Got about 19mpg driving HWY 9 and Skyline Blvd this past weekend

Burrcold · 03-04-2013, 10:24 PM

26 mpg. That's about 50/50 city/hwy driving.

JackPack · 03-04-2013, 10:37 PM

odometer reads ~4k mi, indicator says avg is 30.9 for me. Mostly highway driving.

It's different for each gear for some strange reason. I think 2-3rd is 2.5k

Maybe something is wrong with your car? Everyone in this thread is getting pretty similar results. I've never heard of anyone getting that far on your end - and some of the dudes I've talked to have some really heavy foots for sure...and are easily doing 25.

I'm pretty light footed on the pedal... I have no idea... Maybe on the next tank of gas it should be fixed.

How are you calculating your mpg? Are you using fuely? Doing the math yourself? Or relying on the car's computer?

Wes · 03-05-2013, 02:39 AM

I get about 31 mpg now, it seemed to have increased since I got my exhaust. I calculate with (how many miles I drive)/(gallons filled up), not so much with the mpg readings from the car.
