Fuel range - Can it be increased?

Hi,

I don't have my Cayenne since long and know it uses quite a bit of fuel, which is OK.

Nevertheless, I mainly drive on German highways (unlimited) or downtown and therefore only have a fuel autonomy of approx. 550 km , which is not a lot!

Is there any possibility to increase the fuel range (without driving slower)? Additinal tank where the spare wheel is?

Thanks

what is the reason for an additional tank? why do you need such a thing? carrying more fuel with you will decrease your mpg as you are driving a heavier vehicle..

I agree with your point!

The reason is that when I fill my tank at Total, I don't pay the fuel (I've a fuel card paid by my employer only valid at Total) and there are no Total close to my house so not practical
