hello everyone,
I average around 160-180 miles per tank on my MY19 Cupra 290, i was just wondering if this is normal or not?

Srs that’s quite low in my mind. But I don’t own a cupra. But I know I’d drive it like I stole it on a regular.
But in my 1.4 petrol prob about 300 maybe 350. But I think that’s low. I’d expect 400-450

1.2 TSI gets me 450-500 per tank.
30 mile round trip to work 5 days a week and 28 of that is motorway sitting at 70.
Then have my weekend driving which is a mixed lot.

Your car is broken or you must drive everywhere like you are on a trackday.
You are averaging at about 14mpg judging by your miles per tank.

I average around 17mpg per tank, I usually do city driving as i hardly ever touch motorways

Seems a bit low. I get 14-20mpg in my MK2 (around town). I thought the MK3 engines were more efficient. Or at least 8 years less wear than mine!
 
That does seem really low to me! I've a MY19 Cupra as well and a normal tank gets me between 280 - 320 , most of that is short trips of around 15 miles to work through the week.

Had a little trip to Edinburgh recently and got around 430 out of a full tank.

Don't particularly hang about so I was pretty pleased with that kind of mpg

Last 2 tanks have been 300 & 320 miles. Usually fill up on Momentum 99, roughly £62 or 1.29 a litre. Works out roughly 29mph average across a tank.

That's 15 miles each way to work, and an occasional blast.. law permitting :cool:

I only get around that too from my 1.4 ACT, and that's if I drive like Miss Daisy, seems low to me too.
 
I tried to be economical last tank (even user eco mode) and I made 400 miles with 49 litres of fue used, normally it’s around 350-380 and I enjoy my car :) travel to work is around 10 miles.

280 manual cupra

Just over 400 from a tank in my 1.4 ACT with mixed driving
Weird thing is I had a newer lease car previously with the same engine that seemed to return less MPG?
