January 2017 report

Here's the PCM screen. My pencil and paper mpg calcs generally fall between 22.4 and 22.6.

 

Ive had mine for two days and I average about 21liter/100km or 13MPG according to the dashboard. I drive a GTS and 90% on Sport+ mode, above is for 300miles so far.

 

Live on a hill, average potting about is 14 or so. Much better when on the flat. Long trips at speed 21-23 mpg.

 

I'm getting about 30mpg in my Macan diesel after 1500 miles, mostly city traffic and some highway cruising.
This is even better than my wife's 2.0l 150hp diesel Ford S-Max...

 

Base macan for three months. Half city/half hi-way driving -> 23-25 mph.

 

Macan-S, first 600km or so, I'm getting a pathetic 13.8 mpg (17 l/100km). Almost all city driving, low speed, heavy traffic. Probably it will be better when I turn the Auto-Start/Stop thing back on (after the 3000km mark).

 

My Turbo does between 18 and 26. Mixed driving, about 21. Using 98 fuel here in Switzerland.

 

So this is the first calculated tank on the Macan GTS, 330miles, 17.55 gallons, 18.8mpg.

 

If you own a GTS you should not be participating on this thread. Mileage is of no concern to you. You should be over at the 0-60 thread.

 

So this is the second calculated tank on the Macan GTS, this time mostly in Sport mode, 317miles, 17.519 gallons, 18.1mpg. This was much more spirited driving including trying to run down a 911 turbo, although I imagine myself a relatively tame driver overall. The highway miles help me for sure, although I'm mostly doing 80 on the highway(78 on the GPS). Way better than I expected on the GTS.

 

2015 Macan S delivered early Jan 2015. Currently at a bit more than 14 kmi and 19.57 mpg overall. Location is Conn -- miles are combo of highway and around town, mostly around town. I'd include a graph but don't know how.

Last tank mostly in Sport mode, a little less highway. `
18.15MPG

 

2017 Macan S. Due at dealership end of March. So its probably on a ship right now doing about 15 knots?

 

manila, philippines - base macan.. 14.1 l/ 100 km.. mileage is 362.6 km..

 

15.3 Mpg

 

Almost 30 000 kms on Turbo model.

Avg. 16.8 mpg (or 14 L/100km)... (city mostly)
I'm sure I could get 18-19 mpg if i wasn't so much in sport mode...(20% normal / 70% sport / 10% sport+)

On road trips in normal mode I avg. +22 Mpg

 

April 2017 report

Mileage at 31,716
April miles - 3,533
April MPG - 23.3
April avg speed - 51 mph

 

I took a 400 mile trip today from SF to North Tahoe and back. In normal mode in my 2017 Macan S, here is what I saw....in the flat first part, at 75 to 84 (oops) mph, mpg was a little above 24. After climbing up to 7000 feet for the last 60 miles, average mpg dropped to below 21 mpg. Admittedly I used paddle shifting down 1 or 2 gears to keep things moving!

On the way back, mpg improved back to overall of 23.8 mpg for the trip. This is better than my Subaru Outback used to get on this journey. Speed averaged 68 mph for the day. Starting mileage was 500, so still a new car. I was happy to avoid a ticket, many CHP out today.

For the first 500 miles, most driving was around town so mpg not very good and not monitored.

 

~About 19 (without autostop on) on my commute and ~17 in sport mode on same commute. I guess my wife was right to give me a hard time using sport and wasting gas

 

I have a base. Just finished a 1500 mile trip. 75 Mpg on hwy and some cty driving. My car shows an overall speed of 56 avg.mph and 29.7 mpg ( - 1 mpg for inaccuracy) so almost 29. Mpg. Not too shabby even for a base car

 

2,828 mile road trip all elevations to over 9k feet.

Total Drive time: 45.33 hours
Total Consumption: 26.9
Continuous average speed: 64

Macan 2.0

 

2017 S delivered 2/3/17 with 4900 miles as of today. Mostly smaller town and highway. Not a lot of traffic. Mostly over 7k feet elevation. Mostly hilly.

Hand-calculated average - 19.83 (Fuelio app). That's a pretty typical number for tanks with mixed driving.
- Included are 3 longer trips with ski rack and skis and 2 partial tanks pulling a utility trailer (1300 lbs max) and one full tank with utility trailer (1300 lbs max). Utility trailer generally carries two dirt bikes.

Worst tank - 16.28 mpg with trailer and two dirt bikes, mostly highway/interstate (59 mph avg speed). Tows very well.
Best tanks are hovering at around 22.3 mpg in mixed driving but more highway. I'm surprised that's not higher.

 

2015 Turbo

Semi-rural suburban driving 23-24 mpg
suburbs shopping stop and go driving 19mpg

overall average around 21 mpg; not bad as I expected worse.

used to driving hybrid cars so the technique probably helps. I am not in boost mode and do not drive with a lead foot. Without being in boost, there is still in excess of 300 hp which is enough to motivate the macan.

 

I experience similar mileage in by 2015 Turbo. I also do not drive with a lead foot and rarely use the Sport and Sport Plus modes.

 

2016 S around town 19.5. Two hour trip. 23

 

First tank of gas for me and I'm averaging 23mpg - mostly freeway, but slow speeds with stop and go.

 

2017 Base. About 3 months now. The trip computer consistently over estimates consumption by about 2 mpg (more on this later). I write down the miles since last fill-up on the receipt, then plug the numbers into a spreadsheet (yes, anal, I know).

23.28 mpg Avg
20.92 mpg worst tank
27.15 mpg best tank

There is only ethanol laced fuel in my area (can get non-ethanol fuel when I travel upstate), so I wonder if the ethanol is causing the actual consumption being worse than the trip computer. I observed the same pattern in my Audi. OR... are the gas stations giving less fuel than what they're saying?!?!
