Hi there, you'd expect to get low to mid 20s in mpg I would say. This is due to being petrol and auto. 

Hope iv helped. 

Cheers

Hello Nizam,

Without specific experience of this model, I'm very much with Steve on this and the logic that this vehicle will be petrol, automatic and used for town driving. Never the recipe for good fuel economy! In fact, the recipe for the worse possible fuel consumption.  I'm sure you will appreciate that with the automatics, it is likely that this car will never get into the higher gears with your particular use. Again, it must be appreciated that these cars are far from aerodynamic. 

Since you are moving from diesel, due to the DPF inconvenience, then the trade off will most certainly be an adverse effect on the wallet. I guess the final choice will be influenced by whether you put up with giving a diesel car a weekly blast, or get used to regularly dipping into your wallet to feed a petrol engined car. 

If economy is king then it would have to be a manual diesel engined car. If it isn't, then the exact opposite end of the scale would have to be a petrol automatic. 

Kind regards,

Gareth.
