Panamera E-hybrid real world mpg expectations?

Hey guys,
I'm shopping for a 2014-2016 Panamera E-hybrid, but having trouble seeing what people in the real world are getting MPG wise from normal driving. I know you can run on full battery for 11 miles or so, but just normal everyday life what's to be expected? 30? 40? I'd love to hear some real world feedback.

I think this would a great daily for me, and drive the 911's when i'm ready to have some fun. Thanks in advance!

GratefulMed is infamous around these parts
my experience

I have a 2016. I run full electric to and from work whenever possible, a 12 mile commute each way. In warm months, I get 11-15 miles on a full charge. In cold months, it's more like 9-12 miles. It's either on electric (e-power mode) or on one of the gas modes (hybrid or sport). There's no "part electric" mode so there's no 30-40 mile range that you seem to be seeking. I find the hybrid mode intolerably weak, so when I'm not running electric (going beyond 15 miles or just unwilling to tolerate the weakness of the 95 hp electric engine), I always drive in Sport mode which is fine. Since my commute is essentially within the range of the electric battery and since I charge it to full while I'm at work, I wind up usually going around 1000 miles between gas fill-ups. Hope that helps.

Thanks Man!
I picked one up over the weekend, and while I wish it would go a bit further in e-power mode, i'm still happy with it.

Have you done any testing as to what gets the best MPG? For example driving all in e-power, then switching to e-charge , and back and forth? on my 4 hour drive home I got 32mpg which is impressive for 4700 pounds.

Also, do you know if you can preset the airbag suspension height, or is it automatic in sport / pasm II mode?

Thanks again!!
