Germany 2 UK in a6 Bitdi - poor mpg

[Bitdi power]

Hi all

had a great journey in my newly acquired 2016 a6 avant bitdi.

unfortunately I was rather disappointed in the mpg... even driving at night where I was using cruise control almost the whole way (600 miles) driving at 75-85mph constantly- I only managed 35mpg...

Im gutted that that is best case scenario- as day time driving (stop start) would have been much less..

anyone else have mpg experience with this car?

cheers

Surprised about the low MPG.

I used to regularly drive down to Nurburgring in my Honda CR-V 2.2 cdti and used to achieve over 50mpg at 80mph on a constant run.

Around town and extra urban I would only achieve 40 - 45mpg at best.

Strange that it only produced best mpg at higher speeds but opposite to your A6
