What kind of fuel economy
What kind of fuel economy
I'm curious to know, in my 12' base model I'm getting about 336 miles of in town driving before the fuel light comes on and I'd like to know if that's about average???
there are at least a couple of different fuel tank sizes for these cars. It makes a lot more sense to talk about miles per gallon on a tank, in my opinion.
With cruise control at around 65 - 75mph, in moderate traffic, I can get 19 - 21mpg (US) for a commute, in comfort. My actual average over thousands of miles is 15mpg though. But this is a Turbo S.

My '13 GTS gets 26-27 mpg cruising on the freeway, maybe 28 if I keep the speed down. With a 26 gallon tank that's around 650 miles per tank.
I live in the lowlands of South Carolina (one of the flattest places in the US) and there are stretches on the highway with cruise control on 65 mph I get 37 mpg. That is with a 2010 turbo modded to over 600 hp. Around town with stop and go traffic I average 16 mpg.
Even at higher speeds and getting on the throttle a lot, I still get 24-28 mpg on the highway.

Thats what the car is telling me. I recalculated my best and it was 30 Mpg (not 35) At one point of a long trip my dash said I could do 1000 km after I filled up.
I can do a trip to the wine country or as far as Pismo to the south, drive around for a few days and get back home on one tank. That's from the silicon valley area.
I drove my PTT over 670 miles, had tad under quarter left.
So assume az bout 750 miles on 26.4 gal tank.
Works out to about 28mpg, which is what I saw on trip meter.
This was mix of normal (qbout 3/4 of it), sport, sport plus (maybe 30 mins of it).
Super impressed. My CTT about 15mpg on lucky day.
