Recent car owner: hypermiling (p&g) for diesel?
Hi guys
I’m new here and I recently got a Renault Megane 110 dci.
I’m generally a light foot and my average over the last 3 months has been between 40-48 mpg.
I don’t really know all the jargon so I hope for some clarity.
My engine specs show
Max power 110 HP @ 4000rpm
260NM @ 1750rpm
Published consumption
Fuel Consumption - Economy - Combined: 3.7 L/100km
76 mpg UK / 64 mpg US
Fuel Consumption - Economy - Extra Urban: 3.4 L/100km
83 mpg UK / 69 mpg US
Fuel Consumption - Economy - City: 4.2 L/100km
67 mpg UK / 56 mpg US
If I could get to the advertised consumption, I’d be quite happy.
It’s a 6 speed auto as well.
Hope to know how best to adopt p&g (some day not useful for diesel autos?) or other hypermiling techniques.
Thanks everybody
