Right, as there have been LOADS of guessing going on I thought I'd just post up a screen shot of the incontrol info and see what you make of it. I'll be doing the return trip later today so as I will be driving some would say " normally " I will also post another screen shot of that trip to show what the difference is. So here goes, don't all laugh at once

Ok, so just to update, return trip shorter distance and time due to stopping at services but still had to go through the 50mph avg speed section, this time driving my normal style for m ways which is nearer the unofficial speed limit at times + some,

So guys, with the mpg that the car is showing, do I assume right that I would need to at least take off 10 mpg ?

My thoughts are that it is a completely useless software application What on earth is the point of it when the readings are way out of kilter? |

So, can it be recalibrated? Can a dealer do this? Regards

I cant see what all the fuss is about. The only true reading you need is fuel gauge. When its getting low fill it up. I was always told if you have to worry about how much MPG it does. You cant afford it itisme Last edited by harrygh60 on Fri Feb 13 2015 8:31am. Edited 1 time in total |

That's exactly what I do, it gets low so I fill it up it's because of the incontrol I can now look at things on the sofa, and when I saw some fairly high mpg readings for a SDV6, I decided to see what I could get it up to as I was in no hurry so thought why not. Just out of interest what are you getting out of your supercharged 2015 HSE SDV6 Scotia Grey, ebony / lunar, colour coded, deployable steps, TV, sliding pano and a few other bits. Now gone

Come on guys you aren't even trying.................... according to the InControl in my Evoque 9 speed auto my best trip average so far is 90.2mpg. I use the Fuelly website to monitor every tankful of fuel though and that gives a more realistic figure. In almost 12 months and 7300 miles Fuelly reckons my Evqoue has achieved an average of 39.3mpg with a tankful best average of 43mpg.

So what did the feully site say your average was ? On my evoque I didn't reset the dash trip for over 10,000 miles (it zeros itself at 10k) and that said 29.2, so I was likely getting less than that , you must of been when you saw 90.2, unless of course you knew about that really BIG hill you were coasting down 2015 HSE SDV6 Scotia Grey, ebony / lunar, colour coded, deployable steps, TV, sliding pano and a few other bits. Now gone
