Gas Mileage

Pappy1 · 10-01-2012, 11:40 AM

Had My Z for 2 weeks now....city/highway driving

1st week 388 miles...15 gallons....25 mpg
2nd week 375 miles...14 gallons....26 mpg

These were hand calculated and Note I have not been putting my foot in it...well only a few times.....

Seems about right, should get better as you pack on the miles.

Right now I am getting 19mpg in the city and I can 29mpg on the highway if i keep it ~75mph.

Funny, I do not get that kind of mileage when I drive 75 around town.

Same here, all city with a few mountain twisties thrown in. Still under a 1,000 miles on my 13.

I'm getting an average of 21, by the computer's record. For 75% city driving, I think I'm doing OK.

Pappy1 · 10-01-2012, 12:18 PM

Yea I am Happy wit it so far...like you said it will get better once I get some more miles on it.....

So true............LOL

I do about 70% highway and get 23mpg.

enkei2k · 10-01-2012, 12:40 PM

computer is showing that I'm getting something like 11.5 MPG (or was it 11.5 MPH?). Regardless, it's a low number. Just this past weekend, I drove maybe 20 miles, and it went down 3 dots. 100% city.

Funny thing is, it's been the same every since I took delivery of the car. I have never reset the thing before.

17.6 is the average that's read on my dash. I've been wondering:
Keeping the car in higher gear = Lower revs = higher gas mileage?

RandyD · 10-01-2012, 01:26 PM

lifetime average - 21.8
lots of hard driving
