VF SS Max Fuel Consumption

[Middlestump]

Hi guys

I have a stock 2013 VF SS auto and notice that the maximum instantaneous fuel consumption I get when putting the boot down is 39.9l/100km.

I'm interested if others are getting higher?

Cheers

Thats sounds right, I have a 2013 VF SSV and 39.9l/100 is as high as it goes.
Holden have probaly limited it to that on purpose so it doesnt scare the crap out of you!
I only do city driving and I average about 18l/100.........not great figures I know, but who cares it so much fun!

Yep. It's a random figure for them to cap it at. I personally would like it to go to 100 or 99.9. Maybe possible in the future?

Yeah. My VZ would show 99.9l/100 briefly if ya gave it the beans from standstill and that was only the v6...
A v8...

You know you aren't on a tree hugging green hybrid car forum, when threads about people wanting to attain maximum fuel consumption exist

I like the delay on the instantaneous figure as well. Pretty sure it's so the fuel consumption looks less than it actually is.

.. my VE SSv wagon shows 99.9 when accelerating hard with the race car out back on a trailer

99.9 = Now we're gettin' somewhere!

39.9 = Are we there yet?
