Real world tank range

Hi all - genuinely interested - what range are you getting (generally) on a full tank?
I'm in the UK and I think we get a smaller fuel tank (due to RHD?) than is available in Europe - not sure what size you guys get in US.
I sold my Panamera in the summer in preparation for a 992, and I know I'm going to sorely miss the ability to run 600 miles (or so) on a tank when doing a lot of business travelling!

If you let the PDK do it's automatic thing and utilize all 8 gears, you could get about 400 miles to the tank, but lets get real, enjoying a 911 as it is meant to be enjoyed, you will see substantially less. This is especially true if you are in manual mode.
It does vary pretty wildly. For example, I've seen as low as 11.8mpg and has high as 21.8mpg per my Porsche Connect app trip data.

Thanks, @detansinn - that's helpful. Absolutely - the car is for driving and enjoying, but I regularly do 2 particular 200-250 mile round trips between offices, and it's very helpful to be able to do these without having to stop for fuel.
Nevertheless, I still fancy trying to empty the tank in the shortest distance possible every now and again

In normal city driving, I generally get 16 - 18 miles per gallon.

I'm getting 270-320 miles per tank (extrapolating as I usually fill up when I get down to around 25%). Have done multiple day-trips of over 200 miles.

I got my C2 on Fri with 90l tank and did about 1000mls since then, mainly on German autobahn.
I got about 500km / 300mls until the tank reserve light went on (80km range left).
67l tank is standard, 90l is optional, but only for RWD. AWD / C4 is 67l only. I think this is the same spec worldwide.

Thank you everyone- this is very helpful. It looks like, that on a good run, something around 300 miles is realistic with the 67L tank.
I was looking out for a larger tank option when building the car (C2S) but could never see one on the configurator so I thought it was because it was RHD/UK?
I may have dreamed it, but there was something in the back of my head saying because the fuel tank and steering column/pedals were on the same side of the car, larger tanks weren't available.
Still, it looks like I can do my regular round trips without stopping, so that is all good.
