Cant get over how much better these things are on fuel. Using 98 octaine did 200ks on an eighth of a tank. When I hit the 150 k mark range still said I had 540+ks to go.

For a big 6 with a turbo, farking tops!!

380ks for 34 litres :fool:

hey all,

Now that we've had a few XR6T's rolling out, I'm just wondering how people are finding the fuel consumption? Yes yes, I know it's a turbo and I should be expecting high fuel usage.. I'm just curious and want to compare if my driving habits are top heavy or not as this is my first big car, let alone big car with turbo :)

K's done so far: 300

Fuel ave/100: 18.4L

Main type of driving: city, no highways

Koj

I travel from Sunshine Coast to Bris and return each day and am averaging 9.8 lp 100kms...I drive steady but give it some snot when I want that seat press...Split is about 75% highway 25% city which is VERY SLOW...Using 98 octane

n freeway driving and still giving it a boot, ive got down to as low as 8.9L/100km's. On normal city driving and not being shy it sits around 11.8L/100kms. Not bad for over 400rwkw's.

Be interesting to see how much that changes with the new Process West fuel rail and fuel tube being added shortly. Im sure the -8 lines will eat the fuel up.
