Yes, that's liters per hour. I believe US cars show gallons per hour when you idle. If you are not moving, then fuel consumption is based on time not mileage. Haven't seen other cars actually show it this way, but makes total sense, since mpg or l/100km makes no sense when the car is stationary. Well, mpg I suppose makes some sense, because it basically is zero miles per gallon. Not very helpful, but at least it doesn't go infinite like l/100km.

Very nice. I get around 22mpg average with mix driving. On the highway, I've been getting 26-27mpg with AC on full blast. I think it's very possible to hit 30mpg or even a bit above that when not using AC or heating. To be honest, I am surprised at how efficient these cars are nowadays.

I am at a 17.8 mpg average over the last 10,000 miles that I have owned the car (virtually all short-distance city driving). Not bad given that it has been stage 1 tuned for 9k of those miles. The mpg is slightly lower for the last few hundred miles since I started running an E30 fuel blend.

@C43HeartBoost ive been tuned since like 15k I have like 60k on the car and so far the cars been reliable and been consistently giving me good mpg, probably because Ive been running 94 octane (ultra 94)ever since I broke in the car/got it at 0 km, broke it in all the way, strictly followed instruction havent even had the need to get a service done from mb only alignments as alignments are only done properly by mb for 4MATIC for the c43. Im honestly so happy with this car if I uploaded my dyno sheet w stage 1 on a c43 2019 I think people will be very happy to see the numbers 😉

I also beat a 2020 m4 competition pack but he was stock, still surprising to see my car gap tf out of a track oriented m4 competition pack and 3000 lbs weight (almost 700-800 lbs) lighter then the c43 which weights I think 3975 lbs or something again dont quote me on that one exactly but ik its roughly 4000 lbs, with just a intake and tune and Factory PE which is a whole another reason why I love the mileage on this car its absolutely brilliant

Idk man. I do mainly city driving with some brief spurts on the highway.. I get about 18 mpg just running around my area and 21-22 if I take a 30min trip or something. It's not very good, but it sounds great!

Cruising at speeds of 130-140 Km at 9th gear w light throttle response you dont have to be a granny driver to get good mileage as long as your below or about at 2k rpms and are not engaging boost or very slightly engaging it
