Hi all,

I'm about to pull the trigger and order an XE. I was wondering what everyone's real world mileage per gallon was looking like, as that's something I'm taking into account as premium gas has been creeping back up again.

Thanks!

Which engine? In the 177KW XE we are getting about 10 litres/100km in mainly city driving. In the 280KW F type I get about 11.5l 100km, driven fairly enthusiastically. Both cars are relatively new, it has been my experience that the economy improves as time goes on though I dont know whether that is more that I driver them harder when I first get them.

 

I'm looking at the 35XE with the 3.0 liter 340hp V6 gasoline engine.

 

That should then be pretty much the same as my f type, which is running at just on 20mpg after about 2,000 miles, mainly city driving.

 

Not much data on Fuelly.
Jaguar XE Mileage | Fuelly
(For cars from UK, divide by 1.2 because of imperial gallon.)

 

I have the 340hp engine. CITY driving with a very heavy foot:16 mpg. I usually have the car in Dynamic and Sport modes. I can see the fuel gage dropping. I've only had the car less than a month, so the novelty of hammering the accelerator may wear off (maybe not). Highway MPG 29-32. I did not buy this car for fuel economy

 

True. I ordered mine for the fun. Thanks for the feedback.

 

25t here. I do about 70% highway, 30% city a day. Averaging around 30 mpg. A bit better than I was expecting, but I don't hit a lot of traffic on my daily driving.

 

I have had my car for 5 months now. XE 35T AWD

I never use start-stop and drive in regular mode.

I get 17-19mpg in city with regular driving in traffic, lights and stop signs.
I get 30mpg on a highway. I just drove from NYC to Boston @ 70-80mpg and averaged 32mpg

 

On my trips from NYC to Boston and from NYC to Baltimore, I averaged 26 mpg, driving in regular mode.

In city driving, I'm averaging about 14 mpg.

 

Highest MPG I have seen in my car so far

Coming down from White Mountains (coasting)

Overall I have been very satisfied with the fuel economy. In the city, very heavy traffic I get 14-15mpg but regular driving is 19-20.

But highway economy is amazing. Often see 32mpg which is crazy for a car of this type.

 

Haven't actually calculated mileage, but it seems like it gets great mileage. I don't go to the pump often.

How do you reset trip A and trip B? I can't figure it out!

 

Just display any item from trip A or B on the dashboard (as in avg. MPG or MPH) using the button on the end of the indcator stalk and then keep that button pressed down for a few secs until the readout initialises (it will re-initialise all of A/B's counters, not just the one displayed).

 

Has anyone tried using the 91-grade gas?

I see that the manual recommends 91 octane. I always use 93. Has anyone done any tests which one gets better economy?

 

Damn that is good, my 35T only got a best of 27MPG on a very long straight 2 hour highway trip and I was in ECO mode trying my best for the MPG. Even coasted down hills where I could lol.

 

If you keep your speed below 75 mph, you should be getting around 29-30mpg. I think the sweet spot is 65-70mph. That's when the engine revs are around 1600-1800rpms.

 

In heavy city traffic, with the 340hp engine and ECO setting, 13-14 mpg. On suburban streets and roads, 21-22 mpg.

 

I've got the RWD 35t R-sport. I usually get 12-15 mpg in city traffic. City driving, without traffic will get me 17-22 mpg (mixed freeway/some stop lights). On long road trips and empty freeway driving I have seen 27-30 mpg.

A trip from Austin to Houston will get me about 29 mpg, and I've done it with 30 mpg.

Interestingly I have a 2012 Toyota Camry (I4 engine) and the XE isn't too far off despite the supercharger, extra cylinders, and making double the power. Of course the Camry easily beats the XE by 20-50% in city driving scenarios but on the freeway they are comparable. Technology has come a long way.

cheers

 

I've had the 3.0 liter 340hp V6 for about a week now. Just breaking 400 miles and getting 27 highway on a pretty regular basis. Hoping for a slight improvement when it finally breaks in

 

Resurrecting this quiet thread!

My previous ride was an Acura TSX that also required 91 octane. I used to alternate between 91 and 93, and never noticed a difference in mileage. I will be mostly using 91 with my new XE.

As for mpg - my TSX was a 4-cylinder and got about the same mpg as the XE is advertised to get, even with a 340 hp engine versus 205 in the TSX... However, while I miss the Acura's manual transmission (this is my first auto car), the handling of the XE makes my foot a little more lead-like, so will have to see just what mpg I get...
