Room to Improve!

Ha. My BMW app is telling me off for having a very low MPG. 🤣

I drive mostly city and always fully manual, so yeah, I want to hear the engine… which doesn’t always mean I’m driving in high gear.

On the interstate I get in the 30s, but as I’m only filling up every two weeks, and I didn’t get this car for economy, I’ll drive it as I want to, thank you very much!

Viva la manual (mode)!

I’ll see if I can get the MPG even lower next month. 😏😈

You’re not trying nearly hard enough. Around town, in full auto comfort, I get 19mpg….that’s Imperial gallons!

I’m not proud of it lol.
Luckily my cruising mpg brings that right up.

Just wish the tank was bigger.

I'm not winning, but on the flip side I can't complain about the mileage. I routinely saw 15 US MPG in my 5.0 Mustang GT and even my 2012 Kia Sportage SX (turbo). To have basically the power of my Mustang (with better 0-60), and this fuel economy, I can't complain. Just need a louder exhaust...

Also, don't ask my why I read fuel in liters and fuel economy in MPG. It's what I do. I also sim race in MPH...LOL.
