[Alan1234]

Hi everyone I've just completed a real world fuel economy test on my avensis 2 adult passengers two heavy suitcases filled up with Shell vpower . Trip was reading to Doncaster 70 % motorway 30% A roads total round trip 413 miles I have 3 fuel bars left it dropped to 3 bars at the 21 miles from home mark . I have taken photos from the dash when I pulled up for all to see I averaged 50-75 on the motorway due to road works and 0-50 on A roads lots of roundabout s I was driving at a calm pace as I wasn't in s rush and using cruise control in the road works.

it's doable on long motorway/dual carriageway trips - I've even once broken into the 70s!

I forgot to mention I was driving the wife around up in Doncaster visiting family mostly in traffic about 20 miles worth between the family and back and forth via the hotel and the course she was on .
