MPG / Citroen C5X / 1.2

Unread post by GmanC »

After the initial hiccup with the fuel pump earlier, took the car for it's first decent run yesterday to the outskirts of Edinburgh which was a total of 67.5 miles. I've got the app which is a novelty at the moment and how accurate it is probably up for debate. However had a look last night and it's recorded 54 mpg 😲. Does this sniff of baloney or could this be in fact reasonably accurate? Obviously well chuffed if it is 👍 Av speed was 58 mph (mix of A, B and dual roads) and run in Eco mode.

It's probably not far off, but the only way you will really know is if you do a run then refill again, and in reality, 67 miles is not really enough to get a real idea.
