With our first couple of tanks in the cold, we did about 11.5L/100km. Now getting closer to 10L/100km.

MPG means little to me, but that equates to 20.5 and 23.5 MPG.

Doesn't display properly in Firefox. Sorry. I hate IE too.

I was. I guess I shouldn't have? I never use gallons as a measurement, but in Imp. gallons, it works out to 24.6 and 28.3 MPG.

Looking through the thread, I can't make heads or tails of whether everyone else is using US or Imperial gallons. What's it going to take to get everyone on board with simple metric? What if Playboy started listing measurements in centimetres?

Done. Had not revised the profile since I joined, pre-X-Trail.

Be gentle on the throttle. Foot off accelerator far in advance of red lights and stop signs. Keep highway speed close to limit. If you do that for a tank, and still get 1.5L/100km, I'd say you have a problem somewhere. I'm pretty easy on the accelerator in the city, but I drive faster than my wife on the highway. I get 10.5L/100km. She gets below 10.
