    I just did a search on "How many kms do you get out of a tank?" I found more than 30 threads with the same subject/question. This is a well covered topic.

    Well, guess this is 31 lol.

    I get around 12L as a mix of open country roads and a little bit of city driving.

    Highway around 9-10L/100km and 15L/100km in the city, it's a V6 VT. Just bear in mind it has a quite a few km's on it.

    I find on average if I drained the tank dry, 650km.
