Ive been as low as 26 for town driving and up to 35 for motorway journeys sticking to "around" 70.

i'm currently averaging 36.2mpg

Depends on the state of tuning really, and style of driving.

When its getting towards the end of the month... payday, I can get about 35 round town, cruising at 75 I average around 45-47. Pretty pleased with that really...

 

[laurieh1987]

Alex, those figures are impressive. Is it mapped for economy?

 

[cus]

how the hell do you get that MPG! i'd keep my car if i got that MPG!!

 

[fcuknafe]

Mines more or less standard , i was gettin 40-46.5mpg on the m4 yest at around 80mph but around town its like 25 lol

Its got a jabbasport map on it, not mapped for economy as far as I know.

I have to drive with a seriously light foot though.
I think it may be to do with the slightly bigger turbo not spooling up as much when pootling about?
I dont rev over 2k either when Im driving eco.

Totally pointless having a cupra if your guna drive it economical

I dont drive it like that all the time... only when it starts getting towards the end of the month

 

[ian_cupra]

best i've had 460 miles to a tank, 46mpg
worst is 85 miles to a tank, 8.5mpg

totally depends how you drive, but like myki says, why buy a cupra if your bothered about fuel economy? get a diesel if your after economy

Thats alrite then, try an do it at night aswel so not many people see a cupra goin slow lol.

Good man

 

[ian_cupra]

o and i hope no one trusts the trip computer, because its a load of arse! especially on mapped ones running 4bar fpr or bigger injectors etc...

as apparently i get 56mpg and over 60mpg on the motorway! hahaha i wish

 

[sparkie1984]

i got 45 average according to the on board jobbie!! and ive got a stage 1 mapped cupra

that was on a 108 mile trip. in total i covered 290 miles and i averaged 42 mpg!

im well chuffed although before that trip i was averaging 27mpg

 

[Myki da Pyki]

Best of just working out what your mpg is by the amount of miles you do per tank anyway. Mine was 200 miles per tank

 

[turbo009]

mines on 26.3 town driving tho. Last week i was averaging 38mpg on a 60ish mile drive and that's booting it sometimes too

 

[sparkie1984]

ive gotta say i was well chuffed with my mpg!

not bad for a 200 bhp car
