James Rosier Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Hey guys I got a 2013 1.0 ecoboost (125) titanium and I was wondering what MPG people are getting and how many miles to a tank, mine seems to be drinking fuel, no idea why, had It 9 days and already had to fill up twice.. I am driving like a granny so not revving the nuts out of it. Hope anyone can help Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minnis Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Honest john's real mpg for the 1.0 125 is about 40 mpg. This is what other owners have been getting. What Car's true mpg service is customisable, so take a look for yourself, but it says about 40 mpg driving economically. What sort of mpg are you getting? Also bear in mind that your car will not be as economical until it is run in, typically a few thousand miles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FordFocusman Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 i heard some people saying that the 1.0 ecoboost is not that economic .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Rosier Posted March 9, 2013 Author Share Posted March 9, 2013 I'm getting around 37 at the moment at 500 odd miles, so hopefully will get better... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loz Cheung Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 jmbrown91 has the same engine, have a search for his posts! You'll be a bit more reassured :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSussex Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 That's poor MPG, hopefully it will get better when it's run in, my 1.8 petrol 125ps gets 37mpg average and 40mpg on a long run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Preee Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 It's a small engine pulling a lot of car , Ford's MPG is always far from actual MPG , i'm down to 28.3 on a 1.6 ecoboost , i may as well have an St. lmao Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Rosier Posted March 9, 2013 Author Share Posted March 9, 2013 Well I'm going for a long drive next week to longleat centre parks! So 125 miles each way! Hopefully that will be a nice break in drive for her! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmbrown91 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I'm averaging around 40.8mpg atm, cars done just about 3200 miles...I reckon after a few thousand miles more it will start to rise. This weather doesn't help things! Bring on the summer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artscot79 Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 The 1.6 ti vct was claimed to improve mpg but in reality its no different to the 1.8 i had unless you drive the same route as someone else there mpg isnt valid as traffic inclines distance air temperature etc all effect a cars mpg The actual mpg for the car from owners is 35-47mpg average being 40mpg my ti vct was claimed to have better mpg than the standard 1.6 standard it was 42-44mpg but gave 36.8 the ti vct should have given a 5% improvement with 42.8-44.8 mpg actual is 35.8 i think the 1.0 was great for the fiesta and ka but the focus being a heavy car needs a bit more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My girlfriend loves it to coz it's so quiet but when you put ya foot down that little 3 cylinder sounds beasty! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I honestly can't wait now, this week can't go fast enough! Think it will be one hell of an upgrade from a 1.25 Fiesta with 82ps to the 1ltr 125ps!! Couldn't believe how quiet it was in the test drive but still with so much power available :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuartr26 Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Yeah that was 70 and sometimes 80 shhh lol After picking up my Focus on Saturday I've done around 100 miles and it is currently averaging 33mpg so not terrible. I have been testing out the acceleration too so once I've had my fun it should go much further per tank! It is such a good drive though, no complaints so far so would recommend to anyone!!

Ewaf88 Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Hi there I've just joined this site so my reply maybe a bit late. However a few months ago I decided to really test the economy. This is what I achieved on an engine with 6k miles on the clock. On a long run (600 miles) to Switzerland cruising at a steady 65 I managed 52 mpg. On the way back holding around 72 I got 49 mpg. On mixed driving I've been getting around 43 and on urban only driving 38 mpg. Now we don't all go on long trips everyday but it proved it could handle a long run although a lot of drivers wouldn't want to stay at 65 for too long. For your information I didn't take these figures from the display but simply took note of the miles driven and how many litres it took to fill up again. It hasn't achieved the official figures but I can forgive it as it's so great to drive (especially through the mountain passes) plus the refinement was light years ahead of my old Mark 1. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artscot79 Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 it never will achieve the figures thats a fact all buyers guides now tell you ignore fords optimistic mpg figures its a good car if you can get past that point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewaf88 Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 To be honest I was delighted by its long distance economy and never expected to reach the official figures. My Golf never did either (but the Focus is far better to drive) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artscot79 Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 i just dont look at the mpg anymore i know its about 39mpg driving short distance back roads just enjoy the drive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgess79 Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Just received my 1.0T last week while I was off work, spent a lot of time in town average dropped to 32.8 mpg :-s. Now back to my daily routine today it has started to climb already at 34 mpg hopefully will it will keep on climbing. Such an easy car to drive smooth & can't wait till I've run it in, so I use the full beans :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
