Just Bought a 370Z

DJ370 · 09-29-2012, 06:42 AM

Hey guys, first time forum user. What sort of fuel economy can i expect out of this car? Kms till empty on average around town driving. Im useto my 5.7 SS that has a mafless tune and full system and gets 430kms to a tank. high way 600kms. mind you that is a riche tune. But the Z will be far better around town yes?

You can be lucky and get my first post

IF US Gallon
18 Miles / 1 Gallon
28.9674 Km / 1 Gallon
28.9674 Km / 3.78541 Litre
3.7841 Litre per 28.9674 Km
0.130633 Litre per 1 KM
13.0633L / 100km

IF UK Gallon
18 Miles / 1 Gallon
28.9674 Km / 1 Gallon
28.9674 Km / 4.54609 Litre
4.54609 Litre per 28.9674 Km
0.156938 Litre per 1 Km
15.6938L / 100km

Capacity 72 Litres
If US Gallon: 551.1624 Km
If UK Gallon: 458.7799 Km

According to the 10.5L / Km combined Nissan advertised: 685.71Km

Following the 23mpg which people claim to have on freeway / highway
If US Gallon: 10.2L / 100Km and 704km to empty
If UK Gallon: 12.0L / 100Km and 600km to empty

I don't know whether they use UK or US (I'd guess US) Gallon.

I Just quickly worked this out for you, so while I think it's right, it could be wrong.

Does it really matter?..... This car was never intended to be an economy car, fuel efficient, or conservative in any manner! Drive it and enjoy it!

DJ370 · 10-04-2012, 08:15 AM

Thanks mate thats pretty much right! awesome

DJ370 · 10-04-2012, 08:21 AM

I think it comes down to why you buy the car in the first place. And for me it is a daily driver so yeah fuel economy kinda does matter. But sure, i enjoy driving it, its like being in a little go kart haha. so quick around corners for a road car, for the price.
