    Emerging from lockdown, have racked up 1100 miles in the Allspace SEL  1.5 dsg. Longer trips @ 36 mpg @ 75 mph ish cruise. Eco mode helps plus 2 cylinder deactivation. Drops to 27-30 mpg on short local trips. The Touran SEL 1.4 dsg was about 5 mpg better. Heavier Allspace has different dsg programming at town speeds. @30 mph, 1500 rpm in 4th vs 1200 rpm in 5th in the Touran. It is a big car, so I think quite acceptable and also very refined. Extremely happy with the Allspace and its excellent standard equipment.
