I'm currently getting over 50mpg!*

* Sadly, this is in my Alfa Giulieta Diesel and my GTS is tucked away waiting for spring!

I couldn't get 50mpg out of mine coming down the Stelvio. In neutral. With the engine off.

I suppose we could have done when we were doing 160+ in France, get to that and go in to neutral with engine off in straight line, maybe just do it with a tail wind..??

What is this MPG you are all talking about, I fill it up and drive, when it's empty I repeat the process.

Perhaps forum dB are like human / dog years and must be multiplied by 7 to align with more usual expectations.

Merely highlighting that Maserati's stated MPG is not far off real life :)

120 mile round trip, I averaged 28 MPG, with a 90kg passenger and some luggage. Not bad for a GTS :)

Despite the speed reference, I actually managed 50-60 most of the way.

How on earth can you get 28mpg out of a QP? On a careful run mine wouldn't get anywhere near that. Low 20's is as good as it gets, usually the consumption figure starts with a '1'.

haha all in the technique. Drive auto, not exceeding 2k rev on uphill climbs, coast where possible and stick to 55-60mph.

I average (with giving her the beans occassionally) 17-18 mpg.

Ah, I see. Never tried to maximise economy like that, even with an aged aunt in the rear seats.

Funny, I'm kinda glad the old girl does not have the ability to display mpg........add to that I'm too **** lazy or thick to work it out and I'm a happy bunny!
