What's your real life mileage? I find it odd that the allroad has such a worse mileage than the A4 or even the new S4. I had a B9 A4 loaner and got 24 mpg in morning commute, and 32 with cruise control set to 80. In comparison my B8 S4 gets 13/20 in the same regimen.

Do you have any real life numbers you care to share? I searched but didn't find any threads or other information on that topic.

Thanks!

13/20? Thats awful. I had way better milage in my Macan S. I average about 25 mixed and close to 30 IIRC, on steady highway driving in my 2017 AR.

I'm averaging right around 24mpg with approximately a 70/30 split. 70% around town, 30% highway.

stanj,

I can't imagine something is not wrong; either in your measurements or in your car. That mileage is way, way off.

I'm getting 22-23 mpg in mixed driving with more of that in town/city. I have a lead foot though and always drive in "S" mode. I generally get 30+ on extended highway runs at 70-75 mph

What could be wrong is the driver I am not known for gentle driving. At the same time, I am also known for my love of adaptive cruise control, so when I drive on the freeway without traffic, I set it to 77.5 and just let it go. At that speed I get 20 or 21 mpg on a good day in the B8 S4. So getting this under control with the next car is one of the desires. And since the B9 S4 has better gas mileage on paper than the Allroad, I'm confused. Realistically it seems that the B9 S4 can match the B9 Allroad in long distance freeway driving.

In the city, this means for me basically stop & go on 85 around here - it's worse than "city" because usually in the city you move. I have 30 minutes for 6 miles. Even so, when opportunity comes, I do hand shift the car, which brings me down to 13mpg. My friend borrowed the car for a while and got 16 in the same cycle. So it may be the driver

My Allroad sees about 20-22mpg in the city due to my heavy right foot. I do let it shift for itself. Highway mileage is a different story. 30-40mpg is easy to achieve at a steady speed on a flat road.

I did 350 miles of mostly highway with about 2000 miles on the odometer last week. Measured MPG was 33.3. (The MMI mileage seems to be systematically high in its calculations of MPG so it is only a relative guide for me.) An earlier longer, but mostly highway trip was 29.5 MPG. My highway driving is primarily in D at steady speeds. 22-24 is about right for overall for me as well. FWIW, the car seems to have a bit more punch as miles accumulate and it also has developed a pleasing exhaust note on acceleration.

I've gotten an average of 28.9 MPG based on refill data over the first 12k miles. I have about a 50/50 split on highway vs in-town, but I've gotten in the low 30's on long road trips. My most recent fill was 28.7 MPG with an average speed of 33 mph.
