@hootintoothin that truly amazes me! May be the xtronic version. With my mt6 it is, for me anyway, close to Impossible to get 50 mpg!... I have tried though.
So much the better.

Although I don't pay that much attention to the fuel consumption of the updated best mpg catches my eye, like it did yesterday, then I will set it as the highest. I've had late 40s without a problem but was surprised by the 50.8 or whatever it was especially with the terrain I was driving through.

The xtronic gearbox is one of the best I've driven

@hootintoothin.
On my J12 MT6 digital dashboard I have 63 (!) MPG or 4.5 l/100 km as the best Drive I ever did.
FWIW this surely can't be right because at that time I was driving around town and it should
have been something more like ... 25 MPG or so !
There is a glitch / bug in that firmware ... I have no other explanation.
Most of the time I get 35 MPG on average.
63 MPG should, IMHO, even be better MPG than the future Nissan e-power QQ !?

Just been to the local shops and selected ‘Sport’ mode. Car averaged 38mpg on the 2 mile round trip.

Same journey, in winter time, and it would be around 23mpg using ‘Standard’ mode.

You need to leave that 'sport mode' button alone QaiFan!!

Indeed xaote, I should have added that I am, indeed, a true addict of the QQ Sport Mode !
Never tried to stick to ECO, not even Normal mode for that matter.
This means I have no idea if that would make much of a difference, but going by the MPG other drivers are reporting here ... it sure might !
:idea:

These are my figures after running-in. 70% freeway at 90 km/h (56 mph), 15% highway at 120km/h (75 mph), 15% city. ECO mode and normal cruise ON most of the time.
Quite happy and I think it can improve.

Congratz xavpiq !
To get that kind of MPG over such a distance is near perfection.
Of course in 'sport' mode (instead of 'ECO') it might be not have been that great, but still ... !
I truly question whether the new e-power QQ could improve these results by a big enough margin to justify the extra cost (a price that, AFAIK, we still don't know).

There is a glitch. I’ve had the same instance twice whereby it ‘sticks’ at 99mpg then shots down and back to that
