I am in the market for a CLK soon and not sure what model I want yet. I just wanted to ask the 320 and 430 owners how many miles they get on a tank. MPG is fine too.

I get about 21 MPG or lettle over 300 miles per tank in my stock 430

hmm thats not bad at all.

I usually get 19mpg for CLK 430. But you could easily get 20 or 21 if you don't drive too hard though :-)

You didn't ask about a 55, but here goes anyway (MY01 CLK55):

Best tank to date: 24.8 mpg on a 240 mile all freeway trip, ~ 70mph average speed.

Worst partial tank to date: 9.6 mpg on a 45 minute mountain run - took two weeks to erase the smile

Typical: 20-21 mpg highway, driven aahhemm - "somewhat" aggressively; 14 mpg in town.

Tachini

With full tank I can go up to 270 miles, 50hw/50city. I've CLK 320. Are the tank size between 430 and 320 the same?

Thanks for the 55 info, I couldn't afford one but its nice to know what the Supercharged V8 gets. Sweet car you have there.

stock CLK430 w/about 250 extra pounds of stereo equipment.... on a full tank, 50 street/50 highway, i get about 280 miles.

CLK 2001 Cab

My 2001 CLK430 gets around 19 mpg around town. Haven't take it on a trip yet.

Sleestack

The 55 isn't supercharged... unless it has a Kleemann on it. I was getting about 9- 13 mpg before ths round of tuning, but I was running my car pretty hard. I ran out of gas once. My wife brought me a gallon. I ran out of gas again before I could reach the next gas station.... my wife was not amused.

LOL

WOW Sleestack, that's like Lambo milage... But i guess the performance is onpar with those lambos too right?

What do you think you will be getting milage wise after your current round of mods?

mikeyclk

My 320 has only been getting about 14 mpg in city driving.

Sleestack

6.2 liter supercharged V-8..... not a whole lot. I have to imagine that under aggressive driving conditions I'll get about 6 or 7 mpg.

MBwannabe

LOL oh man. Thats a beastly motor you have there.

rod_cal

I have a '02 CLK320 and get a combination 26 mpg highway/city.

MBwannabe

wow that is excellent gas mileage
