When i first got my CU2 Auto I said I would post my findings on Fuel consumption after 5,000km. I do believe you need to use several tanks of fuel to get an accurate average. These figures have been obtained using Caltex Vortex 95 RON exclusively. Also I have not included the first tank of fuel as it is very obvious that the dealer did not completely fill the tank. After 3 months here are the accurate figures as per my spreadsheet.
4,756kms - 351.28 Liters - Average = 7.39 l/100km.
I find the fuel consumption displayed on the trip computer reads about 0.4 under the actual consumption.
Low fuel warning light comes on after 800 to 825 kms, however when the light comes on it takes 63 to 64 liters to fill the tank, yet there is supposedly around 7 liters remaining in the tank when the low fuel light comes on. This leads me to believe that the total capacity of the tank is slightly over 70 liters.
Byt who would complain about 800km + per tank in day to day driving. These figures lead mr to believe on a long trip it would be quite easy to exceed 900km + per tank.
