I know we usually don't care that much about gas consumption here on RL but I have to report the most recent stellar performance by the Macan 2.0 during last weekend's family trip to upstate NY. By the calculator (not the trip computer) we did 517 miles on 17.3 gallons. The Macan turned 20k miles while we were on the trip so it is "broken in" at this point. 90% highway. I'm very pleased with the vehicle and thought I would share.

I can do that, too, without sacrificing much. Enjoying my Base.

I did a long road trip back in April when my 2016 Turbo had about 8k miles. My average cruising speed was 80-85 mph, and I averaged ~26 mpg. I was fairly happy with that, but I'm sure it can do significantly better if I were to slow down a bit...

I'd love to see if I can get 30 mpg like you, but it's so very hard!

Thanks for sharing!

With the turbo it is a different animal.

Also impressive is the 500+ mile range on a single tank of gas.

great vehicles.

500 miles is quite amazing!

I double checked, and I WISH I could get 26 mpg in my 3.6 Turbo, but I was mistaken! It was actually only 23 mpg!

Love mine, too. Unfortunately, today, an in-attentive driver jumped 2 lanes from a side-street and smashed my front fender/headlight/22 in. wheel! Police citationed her, but crap! I'm now looking for the 'right' Atlanta area body shop

That sucks. Just prepare yourself for a bigger number than you can imagine. I misjudged the turn into my garage -- just a scrape on the front fender area at 3-4mph and by the time all the damage was located it was $4500. Lots of brackets under the front fascia got bent it seems even at that low speed. So much for accident forgiveness...

Thanks for the sympathies...

...as long as she's put back just the way she was, and quickly, I don't care what it costs... although I'm sure the driver's insurance company (Progressive) cares!
