How can you get 400 from a tank I have 2017 model bought in December and work out maximum I get from it is 270 in economy mode but normal driving sport mode 200/220 from tank?
I have 2017 model too and I get close to 400m per fill up (range shows 425m usually when fully topped up) and average 23mpg over 15k miles now... I do not drive economy but i'd say 85% of my driving is fast flowing Mway. Quite happy really :bigblink:

I’ve gone from a GTD to the RS6, though prior to the GTD I had a GTR, so anything above 20mpg is good to me! Having owned an E60 M5 where I got 11mpg I can’t moan to much.

But, my drive to work yesterday the car said I got 9mpg, so today I cycled in ha. I don’t expect to see above 24/25mpg if i’m honest. These cars are brought to be enjoyed and measured by smiles per gallon :D

I'm getting around 200-220 from the (75l) tank, so c.10mpg, give or take. By comparison, my old B7 RS4 with it's slightly smaller tank managed 180-190 miles to a tank... so on my comparison, the C7 is far better value on a BHP per MPG basis :)

I'm also still in the honeymoon stage w/ the RS6, so i'd imagine that MPG will creep up (it will only be marginal) over the longer term.

I just filled up in Brussels and it was €107 for a tank of V Power! Think I’ll be cycling to work more often haha.

310 miles to a tank for me and I'm running on fumes at that point - can't ever get it above 17 mpg - even in comfort mode - was hoping because it's still tight at 6kmiles. My 2015 with 30k on it would average 24-26mpg with same style of driving and even 33mpg on a motorway run. Am on first names terms with the petrol attendants at Tesco with Momentum. :)

Best I have seen is approx 375 miles to a tank with mostly motorway miles. Worked at about 5 miles per litre. If I'm doing stop / start driving then it is normally lower 300's that I'm getting. For town driving it is less efficient than the RS4 but for motorway miles it is definitely more efficient. I'm trying to avoid the little journeys in it and just do the big ones...

I bought mine for that purpose too but I'm still in the honeymoon period where I will take it absolutely everywhere! MPG for the size and performance of the car i think is fantastic! obviously absolutely hammering it you should expect low teens (probably less).

Since a remap with MRC, de cat, exhaust and air filter I actually get about 6mpg more on average than before!

Makes me feel so much better about justifying it now!

I used that excuse when I updated the ECUtek to V5 on my R35, wife said it was a lame excuse. Might try it again ha

I only average 25.8mpg in my 375bhp S3... so the 6 isnt that bad really for the type of car it is
