I am curious what others are getting for their fuel consumption? Mainly in a Subaru XV but any SUV would be interesting to hear.
The Subaru specs say to expect to get- extra urban 6 l/100km, urban 8.8 l/100km , combined 7 l/100km
but we are getting between 12.8 and 13.2 Liters
I am unsure what means extra urban and urban but even so our consumption is way off the specs.
We have had it to the dealer 3 times and every time they tell us it is within the company parameters. They seem to do about 10K for the test and reset the fuel meter before and it is always at about 8.3 but when you drive it another 15K plus it just goes up and up till is sits around 13 for us.
We try driving all different ways - fast starts, slow starts, driving over speed limit (heavy foot) and under with little to no change. We do seldom drive more than 5K at a pop.
So what say you?
YMMV.
