Hello,

 

here's my result after 70.000km (43.500mil):

 

average: 12l/100km (19.6mpg) - 30% city at 55km/h (34mph) and 70% hwy at 120km/h (75mph)

worst: 17l/100km (13.8mpg) - 7 hours pedal to the metal ride

best: 8l/100km (29.4mpg) - cruising at 90km/h (56mph) over German Autobahn (interstate)

what speed are you driving? uphill? mileage? You have the Ecoboost or 3.5 V6 Engine? AWD/FWD?

 

They all have an effect.

most time driving around 100km/hr on highway. Mine is 2011 limited, 3.5 V6 AWD. It does not have ecoboost. It costs more gas than the 2001 Chev venture minivan I had for last 10 years. Why 10 years new vehicle need more gas even it has lot new tech?

I get 10 l/100km with a mix of city and highway (2011 Limited AWD). On the highway cruising at 110 km/hr, I get 8.5 l/100k. I have seen mileage in the 7.8 range with a strong tailwind!

 

My driving style is "smooth" and I use cruise control a lot. Running synthetic oil too, might help a bit. New air filter every 30 k or so.

Well I am new to this site and was searching for a mileage thread. I have a 2014 Eddge SEL AWD with 3400 km yup we bought it 2 months ago it is rated at 11.1 city and 7.7 hwy I think I know our engine is just broken in may even need a few more km under the belt to see better mileage. We are getting 12.5-13.2 in all stop go traffic and hwy only we did get 8.9 these numbers blow away the old 2004 Explorer XLT so I am already happy. There are not to many responses on this thread so I am hoping to see more results from others. I know the window sticker mileage is perfect conditions but I would think this vehicle should get at least 12.5L/100 all city and I would think 8-8.7L/100 all hwy a combined that would be nice is 10-11.5L/100 would these be realistics numbers? By the way we Love the Edge ever since it came out, our Explorer died after 10.5 years (owed us nothing) so we jumped at the great pricing of the edge. it's my wife's vehicle I drive a 2008 Mustang Bullitt but have no problems driving the Edge it's quite nice. We have the appearance package White grill and 20 In Black/Brushed aluminum rims with push button start and auto liftgate. The sunroof takes up to much headroom and no interest in the Nav as we have a GARMIN. Bluetooth is awesome SD card holds all our music and the backup camera is my wife new favorite item on a vehicle. I know alot of this should go in the welcom area I figure I would add all this in this thread. Oh yeah we tinted the front windows to 23% to almost match the rear door tint but still keep the visibility relatively light.
