Hypermiling

[rwb]

I was feeling quite smug with this: so I thought I'd share the smugness.



And computer says 51 on my round trip to Manchester today

And I have about three quarters of a tank left

[sirwiggum]

I also get 81 miles.
Per £20 unleaded.

i cant actually read that, my display's different so don't know what i'm looking at - is that 210mph? of course that might be something to do with me lying about 8' away from the monitor, looking at it through magnifier...

and is that 14 degrees? i'm lying here with all the doors open in just my boxers, and we're promised hotter at the weekend

i see your 61mpg and raise you this was fully loaded coming over from the uk a couple of years ago

[Bailes1992]

Makes me cry, even on a 56mph cruise from Yorkshire I only got 50mpg. f*cking petrols

Discopol... hurry up and get the gaydon photos up

I'm going to reset my computer while going downhill, take a photo & cane the lot of you with a 99.9mpg.

But not in the C5? Oh ye of the poverty display :p

If the computer is consistently inaccurate, then that's 73mpg at 50mph over 210 miles.

[Doggy]

Oh ye of the poverty display :p

That's the same as mine.

Correction. That's the same as mine, except mine's never been north of about 46 mpg.

dont make me get the camera out in the C5, I will never get that kinda mileage out of that thing but the display is far far far from poverty spec in that

[STALLED]

I win...85.6mpg (in my old work car...)

over 23km??? anybody can find a big hill and just roll down, that doesnt count

[STALLED]

Twas a mix of motorway and inner city traffic - that said, I did run the car in EV mode when in traffic and I was mega super hypermiling when on the motorway. I dont think I have driven so efficiently ever! As for the road being - "down hill" - it's a mix of terrain!

But - it was in real world conditions, free from the "official" MPG figures which they slap on a car's windscreen when new!

It must be the display using all the power

Is that a Toyota stalled? My bosses have Priuses (or is it Prii?) -- I'd rather pay for diesel than drive a Toyota
