This weekend I've a 500 km trip, let's see what the fuel consumption says after the trip

Awesome pictures!

The fuel consumption was at the highest peak on mine as well for the first 300KM then slowly dropped, and now after 1000 it's kind-off leveling out to very acceptable levels. I do get the impression that it might be good for our wallet when tanking it half full each time, as with a full tank your back at higher consumption levels... +-2.5L

doesn't change a thing friend.

For me it changed nothing. As the fuel consumption is an estimation of the daily drive.
So it'll change every time you start the car.

And you don't buy this car for the fuel consumption, right ? ;)

A bit of weight :lol:

Dunno, I just notice that it drops when the tank is about half full. It's most likely due to the less weight. But indeed it's different every time you start the car.

A bit of weight :lol:

True, but hardly noticeable on a car that weighs +/- 1.600 kg.

Well done

Mine went upto 15 l/100km when i tried the power (270 km/h)....

Seriously though, that is very good!

Mine said at 17.2l/100km when I picked it up and that's an Ecoboost! After driving it for a weekend it's now sitting at an average 9.2l/100km and still dropping with every drive. (The green bar is mostly below the white line when I drive normally and don't have a bout of "leadfoot")

 

[John577]

270 km/h :eyebulge:
Damn, that's good !


I also hit 230 km/h this weekend on an unlimited German highway

And wow, the car wants even more

9,2 l/100km is pretty good.

As I picked up my car it was on 24 l/100km :lol:

Normally i drive a A6 BiTdi (313 PS) that is seriously quick, but the Mustang is brutal! :love:

I have done 267 km/h in the A6 when i finally hit the limiter but the Mustang is something else. Gets there much quicker and after the 260 was passed, the needle just kept going until i hit the limiter. Its seriously quick and would probably manage 280 or so.

The A6 feels more stable at those kinds of speeds though and to be honest, i think of the Mustang as more of a Grand Tourer, cruising along than driving like a luny....
