buy a Prius. Though you can get an Ecoboost kit-motor for $6000.
Run 38PSI in the tires. Swap rear diff from 3.73 to 3.31.
buy gas instead of daily Starbucks

Buy a MY24 with it's auto-start/stop and cylinder-deactivation

You're getting pretty much what you are supposed to be getting for a 470HP sports car. Either take your foot off the gas or get something a little less powerful.

You are doing better than me (I’m also on U.K. gallons).

It’s all about smiles per gallon … :wink:

They’ve dropped around here a bit.

£1.46 per L when I bought it.
£2.12 per L is the highest I got to.
£1.79 per L on it’s last fill.

That’s all based on shell v power from the same local station :like:

When gas here in the States went over $5.00 per US gallon a lot of folks just parked their cars. There is little else to do. It sucks but it it a downside of having such a powerful car. If it is a daily driver maybe it best to get something else for the time being.

And no cleaners will not help.

Stay off the gas hard. Make sure plenty of pressure in the tires. Drop your motorway speeds down to the lowest safe speed yiu can travel. Make sure your air filter is clean.

‘’’I’ve gotten 30mpg on the highway when keeping speeds around 105-110 kmh, and some very careful application of the go pedal.

Check tire pressure, drive like grandma. Shift early. No junk in the trunk.
Its a Mustang, your numbers are actually ok.

I’ll never understand people that buy cars with big engines and then start crying about gas…
OP’s not crying. He’s in a position worse than we were in during the Spring. He bought the car three years ago before any of the crap started. Have a heart.
