HassanZ Posted May 9, 2011 Posted May 9, 2011 Hello everyone, It would be interesting to know what the average 'real world' MPG is for the 350z, looking at member's current MPG readings. A brief explanation of what sort of driving you do would also be great! Let's see who has the highest/lowest MPG figure (no cheating! ) I'll start off with mine. Mine is short inner-city 1-2 mile journeys to and from work, I don't even think my car reaches optimum temperature by the time I've reached my destination! Quote
DoogyRev Posted May 9, 2011 Posted May 9, 2011 Here is mine, it was reset yesterday before going to Westerham and back... mainly motorway and the office and back today. I think it was reading 29.8mpg when I got home yesterday Quote
MLC35 Posted May 9, 2011 Posted May 9, 2011 check out me thread - 'does my Z lie to me......' I reckon i win Quote
brown7758 Posted May 9, 2011 Posted May 9, 2011 This was taking it very easy on the motorway, and then around and about on local 'shopping runs.' during, and after the motorway it was around 30mpg - 34mpg, also bedding in the clutch so not really the realtime tbh.. ill repost after some more miles Will Quote
Neilp Posted May 9, 2011 Posted May 9, 2011 This is mine reset 2 tanks ago, so around 400 miles ago Quote
coldel Posted May 9, 2011 Posted May 9, 2011 Similar MPG, not so similar average speed! Most miles are a 30mph limited run to work and back, with the occasional run round the M25... Quote
HassanZ Posted May 10, 2011 Author Posted May 10, 2011 Mine and Neil's are very similar. I'm guessing you drive more spirited than me seeing as your average speed is higher and your MPG is slightly lower, or could it be your mods? Quote
Adrian@TORQEN Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 Mine after 20 miles of motorway this morning, reset when I left home. What a nice dream to have an average MPG like that after 1000 miles driving the zed Quote
choptop Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 Photo's are a no go for me but averaging 27 mpg on a run. Quote
DP7657 Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 220 miles including: - Work and back 3 times - 45 minutes of driving like lewis hamilton (read into that what you like...) - 2+ hours of near stationary traffic (the MPG's worst enemy) Quote
spursmaddave Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 Can't post any pics at the moment but 11 mile commute on A2 & M25 is averaging 28-30mpg average speed between 40-50... Quote
JetSet Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 I've never reset the reading since I've had the car from new. It reset itself when the battery was changed 3270 miles ago and the previous reading over 6760 miles was pretty similar to the one posted below (26.2 and 28mph). I'm really more interested to see the overall performance over a long period of time (and in any case have no idea how to reset it ) Pete Quote
DP7657 Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 Brilliant! You hold down the bottom button on the left of the dash to reset Quote
Adam rs Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 Had my car 2 weeks,done 500 miles. I re set it when i left the showroom. Its reading an average speed of 29 with 23.9 mpg. Not much traffic around here so im never sat idling. I try to be gentle on my daily commute but its not always easy Im gonna re set it when i leave rs after my uprev on tuesday to get a 500 mile comparison before and after. Quote
