#1 of 16 Mercedes-Benz C-Class: MPG-Real World Numbers by pf_flyer HOST Jun 12, 2006 (8:17 am)
With the price of fuel being what it is, the mileage you're getting is becoming more important. This is the place to discuss the mileage performance you're getting out in the real world.

#3 of 16 Gas mileage by soldaustin Jun 12, 2006 (6:16 pm)
I have a 2006 C230 Sport with about 2,700 miles on it now. I do strictly around town driving and no highway or at least so far. I clocked it 3 times. First time 20.5. The 2nd time, 20.43. Third time 19.2. The stopping and starting is a killer.The computer will show up over 25 mpg at times and then before it is over, it will be showing 18 or lower with all of the start and stop traffic. I think this is what Mercedes says it will do so am pleased as that was what I was expecting. I will take it on a long trip at the end of the year and hopefully will see it get closer to 30 mpg. I am keeping up with it with the current tank so will see if it holds the pattern. It seems to be getting slightly better but it might be my imagination.

I'm getting 19-20 regularly in city/suburban driving. I'm getting 27ish on the highway
#5 of 16 2001 C240 by jerryhiggins Jun 30, 2006 (2:42 pm)
Mixed 25.0 Lowest ever 23.0   Computer (it's accurate)   City (21 to 22) Hwy 75mph all interstate - 27.5 Hwy 60 mph around 30   All better than I hoped for when I bought it and better than EPA ratings of 20/25.
#6 of 16 06 230 sport mileage by muttbenz Oct 29, 2006 (7:57 am)
My 06 has 37,500 miles. With 60% highway driving I average 26-28 mpg. I haven't reset the overall mpg setting on the computer. It indicates 27.4 mpg since new. On all-highway trips the mpg has been 30-31.5.

Replying to: pf_flyer (Jun 12, 2006 8:17 am) I just got a 2002 C230K SportCoupe, and I'm averaging about 27 hwy, 16 city. I'm no leadfoot - any ideas why my city mileage is so low? The car only has 41.5k on it, so no way it could need new plugs yet.
#8 of 16 Mid-Grade Gas by bowgar Feb 16, 2007 (4:12 pm)
I just purchased a 2001 C320. Has anyone tried regular or midgrade gas? I talked to a local owner of a 2003 and he said he used mid-grade with no problems, and even regular worked O<, but mpg was reduced.

I live downtown and mostly drive downtown. I see on average 20.4 or so.

i have an 04 C32, and about 75% highway miles. I avg about 21 mpg. The best I got on the freeway was 27.0.   I'm not bragging or complaining
