Kuga fuel consumption / Miles Per Gallon

If u want ur street cred to drop even further... tow a caravan!!!  ... I'm gonna lay low for a while now until the Kuga Caravan Club people fizz down!!

Getting around 38mpg avg - however have had 41.3 out of it on a run (@ about 75mph). It's only done 700 miles so should improve slightly as it loosens up.

I'm such a bad boy..... gettting about 34 mpg in the countryside - far too impatient to run in.  Anyway, was told they run better if you do give them some abuse in the early days..........believe that, you'll believe anything I suppose....  Still i've got one of those two year deals so I give it back in 23 and a half months anyway.  I left a beamer boy racer standing at the traffic lights in the damp yesterday.......  You're not meant to have this much fun in town in a 4x4!  I was going to grow up, but the Kuga has been a bit of an elixir... 

Maybe we should take a look at wheel size here to see if there's a pattern? The Focus Econetic has skinny wheels to help its MPG figures. Personnally I would not sacrifice cornering and braking performance for fuel economy!!! Spose they'd be good in the snow tho!

Picked mine up from Jennings 3 weeks ago and the first tank gave me 33mpg, Last Sunday I took it to scotland with 4 adults in and 4 mountain bikes on the back, it averaged 34mpg. Its now got 2000 miles on the clock and fuel consumption has decreased to about 37mpg, not quite the 44 quoted by ford but its still running in.

Give us a flash if you see a silver zetec flying about.
