I get 12-13 MPG...been this way over 32,000 km. It's normal for a car driven moderately aggressively. Cruising on the highway it gets 25+ MPG so long as I'm not caning it on a 2-lane road with frequent passing.

I'll admit I can be a bit OCD about keeping records on my cars. So-o-o-o-o-o it is true, I have a spreadsheet for all fuel I purchase for each car and motorcycle. Over a year and 8,084 miles I've averaged 20.97 mpg with my 2021 C2S. I've had as low as 16 mpg and as high as 25 mpg on a fill up. Around town, the fuel economy really drops, but on the highway at 72+mph or 50+mph backroads, it'll easily exceed 25 mpg.

I have driven over 2000 km so far. Range has been 9 litres / 100km to 14.5 litres / 100km (25mpg to 16mpg). Cruising in highway I usually get to 10.5 L/100km or so.

A side comment, my understanding is that as the car is not fully broken in as I am still under 3k km, fuel and oil usage will vary over longer term averages.

I get anywhere from 26-29mpg highway, it just depends on weather and traffic conditions.

We took delivery of our car at PEC Atlanta and drove it 2,000 miles back home to Boston.
I averaged 27 mpg over two tank fulls, and saw 31 mpg on the gauge.

Highest that I ever saw in my C4S was a sustained 28MPG on the highway. More typically 22-24MPG on the highway. 18MPG on general runabouts. 12MPG or less attacking backroads.

My C2S has over 9K miles now and I drive it almost always in Sport mode. I average about 23-25 mpg and the highest I've had is 31 mpg. However, I live in a more rural area so my drives are rarely interrupted by other cars, traffic lights, etc. which is key. Although I take a lot of spirited drives on the multitude of back roads in the area, I *may* hit 2-3 lights at the start of my drive, don't see another for 20+ minutes, hit 1 or 2 more lights, and then go another 20-25 minutes without any, and then finally the 2-3 lights I mentioned at the beginning. It helps a lot that I'm retired and typically drive the 992 when others are at work and use my other vehicle for "in-town" usage.

I sure am glad I specced the extended range tank! Sounds like my C63 is about as good on gas as the 911 for city usage — 13-16mpg. I’m impressed by the highway mileage you’re all getting though! I can’t get better than 22 in the AMG.

I get anything from 11.5 MPG on a brisk Saturday morning drive when no one is around to 14-15 MPG on spirited drives but with a mix of open roads and starts and stops. On the highway at lets say higher than the "Suggested speed limit" I get 17-18 MPG. Once I was worried about my consumption and put the car into regular mode, drove at 60 MPH on the highway and got around 30+ MPG. OMG that was the worst 10 miles I have ever driven and never wish to to do that again.

Although I would love to be using a little less gas the reality is that is why I bought a Porsche and a 911 and the day I start getting 21-25 MPG as a routine is the day I trade the car in and buy myself a Mercedes or BMW cruiser - just saying.

To OP take your car out on a low acceleration drive in regular mode on a highway at 60-65 MPH, prove to yourself your car is not defective and then enjoy your 12 MPG because you are obviously having fun !!!!!

I only have 1400 miles on the car, overall, my M.P.G. is like 19 mpg. It seems the less I use the car the lower the fuel consumption. If I do a lot of short trips I get about 12-13 if I do highway trips 28-29.

My fuel economy in my 2021 Carrera S manual is noticeably worse than my previous 991.1 and 991.2 911s. My 2013 Carrera S manual coupe, I got around 22 mpg in average and 28 mpg on the highway. I used to be able to hit 30 mpg on the highway in the summer in my 2018 4S manual coupe and averaged closer to 23-24 mpg. My 2019 Carrera GTS manual coupe, I got about 22 mpg average and 28 mpg on the highway. My 2021, I get mileage of 16-18 mpg around town, average around 20-21 mpg, and have yet to hit higher than 26 mpg on the highway over multiple hour cruises. I’ve got 11k miles on my car. I drove from South Shore MA to Provincetown yesterday and back, averaging about 50 mph over the trip. Highest recorded fuel economy was 24.5 mpg.

Over 8,000 miles, in Sport Manual mode PDK. I average 17 to 18 miles a gallon with 60% highway and 40% local.

In Normal on a long highway cruise I average about 28mpg. With the Extended Range tank that’s 600+ miles!
