Ok. Let's all be nice as 'globalization' is here to stay:) Just google conversion programs.


I average 21 MPG.

One man's nice is another man's humor. Or something like that.

I find "L/100km" (Liters per 100 kilometers) to be a pretty unnatural unit of measure, really. Wouldn't it make more sense to just call it cL/km (centi-liters per kilometer) and avoid the extra factor which can't be compounded as a standard SI prefix? Either way the number in question remains the same (e.g. 13 L/100km is equal to 13 cL/km).

average MPG
 
19.3 average MPH per the Nissan gauge with less than 800 miles on my 370Z.

city/freeay = 26mpg

FlashBazbo 06-08-2009 09:06 PM

Like most, it seems, about 21 mpg overall. That's without any thought given to fuel mileage.

CBRich 06-08-2009 11:37 PM

Also around 21 overall and also not trying at all to conserve gas.

ive been averaging between 17-19 majority street
one time i had majority freeway and i averaged 21-22
these are after my mods and a slight heavy foot shifting at about 4k

A little over 22 with around a 60/40 split between freeway and city driving. My driving style is relatively reasonable. I've got the 6MT and I try to get it into 6th quickly in general, but do enjoy punching it from time to time....

But then again, I've only got about 4,300 miles on the car. As I remember, my 350 managed about 21-22 mpg for the first few thousand miles, but creeped up to 24 mpg as time went on. I don't think I made any changes to my driving style so I chalk it up to the computer optimization over time.

About 8.5km/L.

I just did 29 MPG on my road trip from Buffalo to here. Overall average aruond the city tends to be 22 I believe.

Just checked this tank of gas....13.8 mpg with an average speed for 20.2 mph. So as you can see, my car has a hard life of stop and go...light to light traffic. I hardly ever hit 4th gear on my commute.

theDreamer 06-09-2009 10:43 AM

I am at around 18-18.5, not sure of the average MPH.

If I'm not mistaken, this means this user gets roughly 18.0934 miles per gallon.

13L = 13L (0.264172052gal / 1L)
100KM = 100KM (0.621371192mi / 1KM)
62.1371192mi / 3.434236676gal = 18.09342950 mi/gal


Yeah. Don't ask me why I know all of the unit conversions. Too many science classes FTL.
