New R56 owner here. After less than a week and about 1/2 city/highway driving i am seeing 26mpg and dropping. I drive it easily and wondering if this is normal?


Thanks,
Kaine

 

That's what I'm getting

 

27 mpg, 100% city driving.

 

2012 R56 MCS with automatic transmission. Get around 36 hiway, 32 city. Have never seen under 30.

 

38mpg mostly hwy, but when mixed 35mpg. Have never seen below that except during winter fuel mix.

 

My 2010 S got 29.x 99% of the time, I'm seeing similar with my new 2013 S. 29.4 ish... I'm not a race car driver but I do hit the pedal. 90% highway driving.

 

I have a 2008 non-S and with my daily spirited driving everywhere I go, I tend to get 29-31 city and around 34-36 highway.

 

I get a combined 30-31mpg with My 2007 MCS(auto). I'm pretty sure I can get better, but I am a spirited driver, I "gun it" every chance I get.

 

Usually 30 mpg on the highway, but when I'm squirreling around in sport mode, it has gone as low as 25 mpg.

JCW GP, 35 highway/29-30 city.

 

34-36

 

2009 non s mini cooper with K&N cone Filter and running 93 octane non ethanol fuel. spirited driving with sport mode- 32mpg-34mpg around town. driving like a senior citizen mode on the highway (58mph-63mph) - 43mpg-45mpg. Average driving highway (75mph) and in town (35mph-45mph) combined driving is about 36mpg-38mpg. I drive 76 miles round trip daily for work and on weekends I may drive 300 miles to 450 miles for weekend road trips. I bought my justa cooper back in April with 37,000 miles on it and currently have 57,000 miles on it. I love the little car.

 

2013 JCW GP mixed driving, mostly highway 34 mpg according to computer.

Gas mileage dips a bit during track or autocross events to 9 mpg.

 

When it was new in 2009 My JCW got 33-34 MPG combined. Now driving the same route I get about 30-31. I wonder if they are using more ethanol than before or is it just carbon buildup? Top speed is down too. It used to zing up to 149. Now it will only do 140.

 

great, thanks for all the feedback. Looks like im a little low. Will head back to the dealer and have them check it out.

 

About 32-33 on highway but when I'm really on it about 24mpg

 

2013 mcs 33-35 hwy

 

Averaging 42 and change. See my Fuelly log in my sig for details.

 

My neighbor (Miss Susan) has a 2012 R56 justa she is getting 43.

 

30.3
mostly 45mpg speed limit surface streets going to work and highway and city mix on weekends

 

33.6 average. With JB+ at 50%. I haven't reset the average for 6 months. When I was reseting at every fuel stop it would range from 29-35. I don't take it easy on the throttle.

 

'10 Justa 6 speed, average about 25-26 mpg, mostly city driving. Better average on the highway - up in to the 30's.

 

without mods I used to get 33 combined and with mods I get 28 combined.

 

 

32 mpg here in the Ozark Mountains.
