Civil GPS isn't *that* accurate anyway... Well I had a *cough* friend check it for me with a certified and calibrated device was pretty spot on with the Snoopers!

I don't check the mpg numbers, but when I fill up with petrol the gauge shows a range of around 415 miles, so that's pretty good I think. To be honest, I'm generally quite light on the accelerator most of the time, so I'd guess my mpg figure might be slightly higher than most of you crazy kids, with your "pedal to the metal" antics and tyre smoking 4 wheel drifting shenanigans... I can't believe nobody has picked up on the fact that a thread has been started on a Porsche forum with the title "Fuel Economy..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the reasons I changed my previous mint 987 Tip. The low top gear, and fussy motorway cruise. My current 987.2 S PDK is much more relaxed on the motorway (due to a much higher top gear), and gives better MPG there, despite the larger engine.

mat1 Posted January 15, 2020 Report Share Posted January 15, 2020 I get between 12-14 for the most part 😮2.9 Pdk. Not ideal if I'm honest but that's what you get for living in London I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 3.4 PDK is more like 16 in London, but then I don't do much rush hour driving now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
