Road-Tripping and daily MPG?
Hey guys! So I'm about to buy a CLS63 and I got offered an S63 key for key, I'm curious about how the car is for long trips and daily.
I kinda figured it should be roughly the same as W212, this particular one is a 4Matic.
I'm aware it has a big fuel tank but what sort of MPG do you guys have when road-tripping and daily driving?
And if anyone has any info on daily driving it would help as this will be my only car for a while!
I will be around the city quite a bit but I will also travel quite a lot!
Thank you all for your answers!

I own a 2016 S63 4matic. If memory serves the last trip I took I was getting around 24-26mpg on the highway. That was running at speeds over the speed limit, mostly. That was several years ago. It all depends how your driving the car of course. I think around town is around 12-14mpg. It depends on how much I am beating on the car. That was untuned. Recently I got a tune. Hope this helps. There are a lot of factors for these figures.

2019 S63 4Matic+, 2018 E400 Cabrio, wardens car.
Drove from Seattle down to Portland and back this weekend racking up around 350 miles and averaged around 27MPG on the freeway doing between 70-80 most of the time. I keep it in comfort mode and it occasionally goes into cylinder deactivation mode. WIth this car it really depends on how heavy your foot is. It will go as fast as you want but fast speed and fast acceleration have a pretty dramatic effect on MPG.

My 222 S65 gets 19-20 on road trips. Does better when I’m not a savage... but what fun is that!
Cummuting is similar. My 36 mile commute averages 60-70mph from door to door; including time getting to and from the freeway.

Thank you all for the replies! I've also seen the M157 has almost no issues, but do any of you know by any chance what turbos are on them or when they should be replaced?
Can't seem to find anything but the fact they're made by Garret
