I use 100 octane fuel 100% of the time.
Everytime I drive my car, I really dont worry about the MPG. I never got these cars for MPG. I did have a prius back in the day and regretted every minute of the day getting 50 mpg.
I had a Taycan Turbo S and regretted charging it every minute of the day.
I get 17-25 MPG on my TTS and call it my modern day Prius on NOS and Coke, times 10. yeah............

I'm not overly worried about it, but the fact that it gets comparable daily driver stats to my ex-991.1 C2 is pretty amazing. TT/TS don't get the love they deserve!

I get about 150 miles per tank lol. Full e85, car makes over 1100whp. Basically 6-8mpg at the most.

I log every fill up (actual miles and actual gallons at the pump) on all my vehicles. In nearly 20,000 on my 991.1 Turbo S I have a lifetime average of 17.4 mpg. I have done a couple tanks that were 25+ on mostly highway. I did one track day (~100 miles) and got 9 mpg. In the mountains I get 11~15. Around town I get 15~17. The car was stage 3 for the first 8,000 miles and has been stage 4 for the last 12,000 miles.

The car was pretty good on fuel.

About what I see, stock...

You may have more power, but patience will prevail as you have to fill up three times for ever one time I do...

I've looked at the milage on the screen a few times, but in reality I never check it and don't care. I didn't buy this car for milage unless you're measuring smiles per mile.

We're very much still WIP re tuning here but ~15ish over a tank of e85 on a 12 injector 4L setup while doing some spirited driving over desolate highways and mountain back roads. I think it's skewed by the amount of pavement i'm scrunching up like folds on a mastiff as i go though - treadmill effect adds up over all those miles
