What sort of real world mpg...

Featured Replies

I have a Mondeo 2.0 petrol '09' plate and I'm getting roughly 34mpg and that's a mix of motorway and town. 

Can any owners of the same car comment what you achieve and the style of driving you do please. 

 

Thanks guys. Great forum



Guessing you have a manual?

I have the 2.0 EcoBoost Auto, and get between 20-25 in town, and around 40 on the motorway.

Yes sorry manual.   I'd have thought the ecoboost would have been better around town

Keep in mind that's pretty much the worst case scenario.

It's winter driving (MPG drops) with VERY short journeys, plus I live in a town where there's traffic lights every few meters, so it's constant acceleration/braking for me.

I have a manual Mondeo Ecoboost 1.6 Sigma Turbo Petrol (2012). I get 39-40 mpg urban and 46-47 mpg motorway when doing 65mph.

It's about keeping the gear change on point with the eco-arrow and also keeping the Revs between 1500 and 2000 Revs to optimise the engine fuel delivery and efficiency. When using the Turbo boost to accelerate quickly in traffic, it drops to around 39-40 mpg on the motorway.

2.0 litre petrol MK4 - 5 door is giving me 37 - 40 mpg on a commuting distance of 55 miles, this is stop start, dual carriageway and B and C roads.  manual box. As a comparison the wifes 1.0 Alto gives 55 - 60mpg on the same trips.
