Not great Brydo. Our 2 litre X1 will do over 50mpg on a 60-65 mph mainly motorway journey. The last 300 miles of very short journey town driving shows 39.8mpg and an average speed of 29.1. That includes quite a bit of warming the car up for 5 to 10 minutes before setting off.
I would agree. 60mph on a motorway is absolutely optimal speed and conditions for maximum fuel economy and most modern cars would be in the 50-60mpg range in those circumstances I would think. 60mph is also quite slow for a motorway, so if you wanted to drive at the more normal 70-80mph range then it’s likely to be a lot less as well. When all is said and done, the XC40 is a relatively small car, and this model is only 2WD, so even with a fairly pokey engine it seems like terrible fuel economy. Out of interest, does anyone know what sort of mpg those with the T3 version are getting?
