Lupo 3L 2000k Mile ski trip coming up

I'm taking the Lupo 3L on the annual pilgramage to the French Alps, about 2k miles all in & am looking forward to the mpg results. I'm sure I'll get bored eco`ing it the whole way but I'll try my best

I think it might do from Le Havre (French coast) to Tignes (French Alps) in one tankful or 890ish miles maybe just. thats about 44l or 10 imp g fully brimmed.

Well I gave up eco'ing after about 250m where I'd managed 3.2l 100km up to that point. From there on I hit the French autoroutes & cruised at 85-90mph all the way there & back. The whole trip average was 4.2L (67mpg imp)

Best part is not having to stop for fuel! It pretty much gets to the Alps on a tankful





Mucho fun on this Snow Scooter for a couple of days too
