Seems like the ‘true’ achievable MPG figures are guesses these days. From the Kuga 2.5 PHEV:- Combined Fuel Consumption – PHEV in Operating Mode (WLTP) 201.8 mpg (1.4 L/100 km)* Combined Fuel Consumption (WLTP) 43.5 mpg (6.5 L/100 km)* So you ‘might’ get somewhere between 43.5 and 201.8 mpg.
The Skoda dealer was trying to convince me I will achieve 200 + mpg from the new Skoda Superb PHEV, because it was the WLTP figures, he was completely brain washed.
The new Kuga PHEV is about the same weight as the Outlander PHEV with similar size engines and batteries. The Outlander PHEV long term tests show around the 37 mpg mark in petrol mode only on a depleted battery, on a 100 mile journey starting with a full battery approximately 49 mpg, over a 6 month period average fuel consumption 70 – 80 mpg. I would imagine the Ford Kuga PHEV to be similar.
Unfortunately I have suffered a brain injury and occasionally I get confused and often say the wrong thing.
