Default 850 owners...

Just wondering about how many miles you all usually get out of a tank of gas. I am going to be taking a long road trip and I have not went through a full tank yet since I just got this car and it has not been driven much. I just want to know about how much gas I will be using so I can somewhat plan on where I will need to get gas.

Thanks!

na 10 valve auto wgn, 9.2 ltrs per 100 klms.
So on a 70 ltr tank that gives me about 750klms from full to dry.

Question you should be asking, is, what is YOUR consumption ????

I took the trip and I think it did pretty good with gas mileage. It is at the six on the gas gauge and it is at around 340 miles. I didn't have to baby it to get that either.
