Kilotank (and more!)

It wasn't easy getting good mileage on those steep Norwegian mountain roads.
I even climbed Trollstigen, one of the most beautiful roads in the world.

The last two tanks also got #1-spot on the POE-list and into the top 10 on the absolute list! :thumbup:

Yes, I'm a bit tired of P&G now. ;)

Some fantastic numbers for an MX-3!

Thanks!

I can beat 60 MPG on a scolding hot day if I have the road to my self. (No idiots in my way when I'm accelerating, and no maniacs behind me when I'm coasting!)

Going up I was very glad I had the V6 model!

How was the weather amongst the mountains?


Regards, a Finland-Swedish from Österbotten :D

The weather was a bit cloudy, rainy, and cold.

Great numbers and it seems you had fun!!
What mods have you done to the car?Your driving style?Do you switch of the engine when coasting?

jakobnev 06-26-2017 02:53 PM

I have a thread for the mods: http://ecomodder.com/forum/showthrea...ead-26260.html

My driving style is strict Pulse and Glide, always engine off during glides. At nights when I have to use the halogens instead of my LED-DRLs, I keep my engine on for about half my glides in order to not drain my battery.

And of course down steep enough hills, I have to DFCO.

You could say this is a "megatank" since 1000km = 1 megametre :)

Congratulations on your mega tank!
