VF Series 2 V8 Fuel Consumption

[houndogss]

Since the 6.2 has been around for a few months now, it would be interesting to see what fuel consumption figures people are getting.

 

[OzTurtle]

Average for mine as a daily, mostly highway and occasional peak hour is 12.6L per 100K (auto).

 

[houndogss]

Are you using 98 octane?

 

[_Jay_]

450-500 k's per tank, but I do have a heavy foot

 

[Wannabe Nomads]

Our best is just over 12L /100..mix of new car fun but a fair percentage of that was some slow - yawn yawn- Adelaide hills) "driving"..95 fuel. 16 LS3 Redline..auto
"Around town, as a daily driver"...more ..as you would expect.
Just did our last fill up with 98...wait and see...we think it will be a waste of money though.

For the average person living in the suburbs, I would be surprised if anyone got under 13L. If they do then they live in the sticks, or just plain lying.

Redline wagon...60% highway driving....17L/100KM

I should probably add that I've owned the car for only 5 days now and drinking the free fuel it came with

With mine, it has 4000k's on her with the W375 fitted pre-delivery. Average of 12.6 could be due to the better tune and only using BP98.

 

[Jarp]

14.1l/100km around town. W375 (auto) driven mainly with the paddles. Think mine runs a bit rich down low with 5600kms on clock and tune touch up due at 10000km.
