It's the traffic that kills the consumption. Mind you, would you prefer the diesel? Evoque HSE Dynamic

Roughly 17mpg over a tank of mixed driving. I'm not light with him. It's quite hilly around here which hurts consumption too. I reckon it's about 2 mpg better than my old 4.2 and quite a lot quicker. What a motor  Cheers,

4.2 s/c 17mpg lucky I only use it on a weekend as I have a works pick up in the week, use to have a diesel but just love the power of the s/c

Those figures are not bad at all, when you consider I,m getting around 25 from my 3ltr diesel.
I,m getting a SC next for sure. SVR 2018 in Santorini Black.

Was that achieved in Sport mode or had you been using D and thus letting the gear box shift up to 6th? IIRC if you use Sport mode then 6th is locked out unless you use the paddles to shift up 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Using paddles in S mode, like you say, to get 6th and also more engaging drive. Evoque HSE Dynamic

24mpg sounds pretty impressive! How long a run was that over?? Thinking of swapping my TDV8 for an SC...... Wondering if I am having crazy thoughts  TDV8 Java Black, Overfinch 22s

Anywhere between 9 and 19 usually get around 200 mls. to the tank. Drive it like it's meant to be driven, just like you stole it.

I get 25 MPG average in my 3.0 TDV6. Shocking, really. I reckon I would get 15 MPG if I went 5.0 SC... very tempting given my low mileage. But I honestly don't think I need the extra performance (don't laugh!) as I am used to the 3.0 now. When I first changed from my XKR it was a shock initially, but the 3.0 has plenty of oomph for the few seconds you need it before it wheezes to 4500 rpm and hunts around for the next gear. I'd probably most want a 5.0 for the soundtrack. L405 P400e Autobiography (MY2020)... Silicon Silver / Espresso

I got 24 with a set of ideal conditions really, steady 40mph and slight decline for 20 minutes or so. I drive to station every day and back (2 miles) starting from cold normally get 14-15 on this shuttle. Overall I'm probably getting about 16-17mpg 70/30 town/dual carriageway.
I think if you drive it with a light foot, reading road well and keeping within spreed limits, with the odd blat off the lights then you should see about 16-19mpg. If you drive it heavy right foot everywhere - All gas and brakes, it will be low teens easy. I'm starting to drive it a bit slower now and saving the savage acceleration for occasional use.

I can only dream of 24mpg

My 4.2 averages 10-12mpg and only hits the heady heights of 16mpg on long motorway runs.

I also use Shell Nitro VPN+ (never use anything else) but with all Gizmos on and lit up like a Christmas tree

I also average 12MPG in my 4.2 SC . I unfortunately only drive short distances to work and dont tend to drive looking at the MPG figures. I cant wait to upgrade to the 5.0 SC in a year or two. Seems crazy that it seems slightly more frugal than the 4.2
