    Fuel Efficiency-20171222_132354-jpgOur first decent "out of city" drive. Left Chatswood area and stopped in Albury for lunch and filled up. For the the most part we were showing 7.6 L/100KM to 7.8 L/100KM. This is also achieved sitting on 110 KM/Hr.

    On the whole, I am very impressed. Based on the above, IF we could be focused enough and drive at no more than 80 KM/Hr, I think we could get from Sydney to Melbourne on one tank of petrol. BTW, This Tiguan has the 162TSI motor.
    Ordered: 2017 build date Tiguan 162 TSI Highline with DAP in Tungsten Silver and rear luggage tray. ETA: late April / Early May. I did not have to wait. I took delivery on 11 March 2017.

    What fuel are you using 95 or 98? We did 380km yesterday in Sports mode, averaged 9.4l/per 100km...

    Thought I'd re-ignite this thread. I drive the 2017 Gen2 132 TSI and live in WA. I just came back from a round trip from near Perth to Albany. Had the trip metre reset after re-fueling (ron 98 ) my car to full (63 litres inc reserves) before heading off and on the return trip I partially filled the car with ~29 litres (ron 98 ). Total mileage completed during the trip was 1122 KM with ~ 240 KM of distance remaining. I was the only occupant in the car, was mainly driving in Eco mode with ACC and was carrying about 30 - 40 KG of load.
    I took a non-direct longer route to Albany and the direct shorter route from Albany. Whilst in Albany I was driving into Salmon Hole to and from my accommodation in total 3 times but also drove into town a few times.
    In numerical terms that would be approximately ~14.8 KM/litre or ~ 6.75 L/100KM.

    162tsi I've been averaging under 8 litres per 100km. That's some highway driving with lots of traffic lights. I got to be pretty light on the pedal and coast a lot to get that.

    140tdi and currently sitting on 5.9 l/100k around Sydney, did a trip yesterday western Syd to hurstville rtn and averaged 5.1 L/100k. I can't believe how economical the 140tdi is and it's only done 1000k's. I really expected mid 6's and tbh if the cars running fine don't care how much fuel it uses.

    I doubt there would be much difference between the Tiguan and Passat Alltrack when it comes to fuel economy, very similar weights.

    We managed around 8.4 L / 100km on a trip to Apollo Bay the other weekend. This included a trip up to what’s left of the 12 Apostles & the lighthouse at Cape Otway. This is with around 2000km since new.
    I’m running 98 in our R-Line but would consider running 95 to see if there is any difference.
