No surprise the MPG decreases as average speed increases ;)

We often drive to / from Trebon in the Czech Republic, which is 840miles or so. Both SD and Turbo have eaten up that trip with aplom.
Really planted at high Autobahn (120-130mph) speeds and super comfy too :)

We share the driving, but have both driven the trip solo (Semerka many times) with just fluids/food pit stops.

Not necessarily. Eg a largely non motorway cross country romp :twisted: on the way home. Image

No long journeys in the Macan yet but i managed 900 miles in one day in the 928 taking my daughter around universities.

She slept while i drove and i slept while she did interviews; successful day as she was accepted for Fine Art (Sculpture) at Brighton.

Last time i drove to Paris the road was clear and i was within a whisker of 20mpg at 120mph on cruise. Wouldn't dare do that now as i'd probably end up walking home carless.

That's a very impressive average speed over a 9 hour drive ;)

That was at around 75mph most of the way. No traffic, M4 M5 and A30. I took advantage of the coasting function on the long hilly bits of the A30.

The fuel economy soon drops over 80mph and you can forget Sport or Sport+. :lol:

Cornwall to Yorkshire on Xmas Day this year in petrol Macan S. Average 75mph :D
My average was 57mph over 690 miles so I can guess that you were certainly 'pressing on' and hoping the local Plod were enjoying their Turkey dinner at home :D

Brighton to Weston Super Mare to Scotland and back! :shock:
That must've been when you were young and brave(stupid). Having owned an Italian car the first thing I did was renew my AA membership. You should ring Fiat and tell them that one of their engines lasted 900 miles without at least two stints on a hard shoulder :D
