20 mpg in a Wildtrak

[monkeyboy1317]

Not sure where to post this, I was just wondering what kind of mpg other Wildtrak owners were getting. 20 mpg on the last tank, over 19 since I've had it.

And for those asking:
Tires- 40 psi
Fuel- 87 octane (regular)
Mode- Normal
99% around town & highway. Week long trip to beach, Saint Augustine, FL.
Almost no off-road (yet).
Live in southeast Georgia, fairly flat terrain.
Weather- Delivered back in May. Our weather is very hot, very humid, and it has rained all summer.

most recently I'm about 18.5-18.9 ish. I was like 22-23 coming home from Colorado a few weeks ago. I've been experimenting with tire pressure, currently running about 36 psi warm. Houston is pretty much about 100 ft above sea level, hot and HUMID ever since I bought it in April.

I haven't gotten any better than 15.2mpg lol. What driving mode are you in getting these numbers?

What is it when you actually hand calculate it?

I’m about 1100 miles into my Wildtrak and at 17.9 haha

Exactly, the consensus from other threads seems to be that the computer is always overestimating. I would tend to believe a real world 20 mpg from a base, BB, or OB but doubtful from a Black Diamond, Badlands, and especially Wildtrak.

I average around 19.5-20mpg, in normal drive mode. Also I only use shell 93 in the tank. I live in NY, so there’s little elevation changes for me

I have a 2 door. I have 19k on the odometer and have averaged 19.2 mpg.

I've been keeping tabs on the actual fuel consumption numbers around Houston, and I'm right at 17.4 mpg average over the last ten fuel-ups. The on-board mileage calculator hovers around 19.

EDIT: All on 93 octane, since my local gas station doesn't mark up the higher grades too badly
