Highest MPG ever
Today i took a trip to Hayward from San Jose, CA. 27 miles one way
On my trip back, the trip computer shows 37.7MPG, which is never head of. (On my way to Hayward I got 30.5 MPG) 37.7MPG almost feels like an error by the trip computer, but I had previously got unusually high MPG on the way back to San Jose too, it was 35MPG.
There should not be much incline/decline between these two places. Tell me I should trust the trip computer....

Wind speed and direction and grade make a huge impact on hwy mpg. This is why you should only consider long term averages when comparing fuel economy. Acute environmental factors affect individual trips all the time. Looking at long term averages helps to exclude the factors that are not car related.

In my GLC43 I hit the limit of the display, so I think you should try hard unless you have the GLC63 already

Hi,
Just cruised into Sydney, freeway driving and the last 40 km to the Harbour Bridge was a rat run through suburbs at 40-70 ! Km....
My 250d, with 25k on the clock...... 867 km, Ave 5.6l/ 100km.
Ave 97 Kph... range left in tank reads 318km. So possible range might be 1185 km , running at 110kph ?
Very impressed, and very happy.
