Farthest Predicted Range After Fill-up

[Simon Says]

I just did a 694km (434mi) trip and i had 64km (40mi) left of range driving mostly at 115kph (72mph) or a bit slower at times.

If the computer calculations are correct, i would have traveled 758km (474mi) on a single tank.

I averaged 8.5 L/100 (27.7mpg) with my Tremor on that trip.

That's great mileage if it's accurate! If you hand calculate it and it's off you can adjust it easily just follow the instructions in the thread below. Mine was off almost 1.5 mpg and after adjusting it it's dead on now. I started at 944.

Not sure what you are doing- my '21 Tremor with no mods is a rock steady 19.5 mpg- how are you getting 8 mpg more? Did they change something in '22?

No idea. I just drove it normally. Pretty flat, cruise control at 115kph for almost 500km., no head wind, towing nothing but myself and 50 pounds of luggage.

27mpg is probably a bit too optimistic. Realistically it's probably 1-1.5mpg less if i would have hand calculated it but still really good.

is that the diesel? what size fuel tank do guys have over there?

Yes I have the 2.2 Duratec with a 80 liter tank.

I'm jealous of the extra couple gallons. what's the normal actual range for a tank?

Around city and my tad heavy foot I go about 750 kms on a tank. So about 475 miles.

Peter, try easing up on the pedal and staying out of the boost especially from a dead stop. That's where you'll see the the increase in mpg when trying to ease up to speed rather than mashing the pedal. Also if you do a lot of stop and go city driving that just kills it right there and there's not much you can do about that.

Damn. I thought it was the tail gate damper giving me too much drag?.
Funny. Today i went to fill up and it spewed out an estimated 590km. Strange

See it's already improving. lol Gotta make sure your dampers lubed. And people wonder why I lube mine every day. ?

That’s the difference today - I lubed close to the damper (squeaky tailgate). So if I actually put lube on the damper - I will get that much more range. Damn if I knew it was that simple?

Just beat my personal record yesterday. Took a trip down to Indy and back, filled back up with roughly 1/8 tank remaining. Left with roughly 3/4 tank. Cruise control 2mph over limit, probably 70% 67mph with remaining 30% split between 62mph & 72 mph.

The highest I've got 485 was when I went to Boston back to back nights for concerts

I honestly don't even pay attention to it.
