What gas mileage are you getting with 2.7 and SAS?

[Skott]

Below are my calculated MPG rates (amongst other metrics I'm tracking) for the first ~1,500 miles of ownership, and light driving on paved roads and highways only, and always in ECO mode, so perhaps take all of my numbers with a grain.

My overall MPG on my WildTrak is: 18.2 (my calculation), and 19.3 (internal calculation), and if you average those, I'd guess I'm somewhere close to 18.7MPG really.

I just can’t believe there is so much difference in what we are getting. I’m pegged at 16.1 on 93 octane 2u 4dr Wildtrak.

WTF? The best I can get is like 15.5 MPG. I must be doing something wrong.

I'm at

Just curious. Mine is rated for 17mph but I'm getting 19.5 on normal mode which surprised me. Wondering if I can break 20 with eco mode.

I'm at 15.3 with a lot of highway. I may have a little bit of heavy foot but even when I lighten up a bit the best I'm getting is 15.5. How in the world are others getting 19?

I'm actually getting 20.9 average now. Looking forward to breaking to 21 barrier.

For the people getting 17 or better, what gas are you using? I'm getting 16.5 on regular.

With my 21.6 average I am using 89 octane. High humid, almost no wind conditions, flat roads no hills. Driving anywhere from 50-65 MPH with a few stops for red lights. Mostly just me or me and my wife in it. I tend to drive with a light foot but don't baby it too much either. Mostly I drive at steady speeds and use CC a lot- even on the straight back roads.

I'm only half way through my second tank of gas, and I assume it was filled with regular when I picked it up, but I'm averaging 19.4 with regular 87, maybe 1/3 of it highway 65mph+ speed.

21 4DR OBX 2.7 Sasquatch. 3500 miles. Typically driven 20 miles round trip to work, no highway. Turn off the start-stop feature as it is useless if you are running heat or a/c.

18.4 MPG currently, according to the dash.

I have a 4 door badsquash and I average 14 mpg in town with or without the top on. I didn't think that was bad at all until I saw the higher numbers some of you guys are getting. I must be doing something wrong....but oh well I can live with it. Ive tried 93 octane fuel but didn't see any difference in mileage.

The best I got driving highways on vacation through Arkansas highways was 21 mpg on Eco mode setting and 91 octane on 4dr BD

8500 miles and recording each fill up and millage. I drive in eco mode most of the time and use
premium gas 17.4 mile per gal. I drive about 50 / 50 and while on the interstate 75 mile per hr. would probably be my average. I like eco mode mostly for the smother shifts and turbo lag isn't something I notice as much as standard or sport modes.

Averaging 15-17 around the city, but man is this big heavy brick efficient coasting down a mountain!

This was during 30 min downhill from Big Bear Lake down to the I-10 on the way back to Phoenix. Daughter took the pic.

Without SAS, I'm getting an average of 15.9 on a Badlands with around 9000 miles. Looking at Fuelly, my BEST mileage was 18.4 on what was likely a 100% highway fill-up.

15.9 is the highest I have gotten. That one year review video the guy was saying that he was getting 19+ with an FE.

Drove back from the OBX in the SAS OBX last Wednesday night and with no one on the roads and staying in the flats along the coast I got a calculated 22.6 MPG over the 300 miles. Cruised right around 60 MPH.
