It would be interesting to know what average the T5 gives in real time ?
Mine is scheduled for delivery on the 31st March , and was told by my dealer that anything between 25 to 30 miles / gallon .
That is low !

Yeah, I've done about 300 miles so far and getting about 28. About 3/4 motorway, the rest urban. I'm assuming (hoping) it'll get better as the engine wears in!!

Lets hope so . I have read articles online , where a low figure of 22 miles / Gallon , urban driving . That is pretty steep .

So, guessing something like a 350 mile tank range for the T5?

My first full tank looks like it’s taking me 477 miles in the D4. Pretty much a full mix of all sorts of driving conditions.

Best mpg return so far today in the D4. A 20 mile run on country roads, roughly 35 mins in ECO mode. Returned 48.8 mpg. Done 725 miles now.

Hi just wondering what sort of MPG you are getting from those lucky people who have already got their T5's ?

I've done about 100 miles so far, engine of course not run in properly yet, so take my readings with a pinch of salt.

First 70 mile trip achieved 36mpg, 30% dual carriageway, 30% motorway and 40% town.

The remaining 30 miles has been short trips around town, and I'm seeing 26mpg on this trip.

I would imagine It's easy to drink fuel in this car as it's not a bad performer when you need it to be although I reckon I/we could get very reasonable long term averages from this engine if happy to be sensible??

Hope this helps.

That’s not bad. Thanks for posting.

Mine seems to be floating around 26mpg at the moment, highest I've seen is 29, hopeful for better results as it runs in!! Not done a proper long motorway trip yet either.
