#2 of 55 LR2 gas mileage by jeyhoe Jul 17, 2007 (12:09 pm)
I was able to see, sit in and look carefully at an LR2 over the weekend. The vehicle looks like a winner to me. I like the style, the interior is nice and comfy and it has everything but actual low range 4WD   Even so, it is on my most wanted list. But, at 16/23 gas mileage is a concern to me. SO I'm wondering if it is a concern to other LR2 owners?   If anyone has gathered the data, can u post your gas mileage results? Thanks.

my LR2 is averaging 21 mpg using 93 octane, hasn't gone below 20 in a few weeks. It's a pretty even split between city and hwy driving.

Replying to: roberto6 (Jul 17, 2007 4:00 pm) I have been averaging 10.2 L per 100 Km   Let's see, that's 10.2L*4.3l/g caarry the 1, subtract the ... DOH! what's that in mpg? :>)   Anyway, thanks for the prompt responses. North of 21 mpg sounds reasonable. Better than my, ahem, Navigator for sure.   93 octane though - best I can get here in California is 91 and it costs $3.57 gallon right now. DOH!

Replying to: jeyhoe (Jul 17, 2007 6:42 pm) You need to write that as 100 km/ 10.2 L first then multiply by the appropriate conversion factors. Or, just look it up here:   See more Car Pictures at CarSpace.com   tidester, host SUVs and Smart Shopper

Replying to: 08lr3 (Jul 17, 2007 8:39 pm) Thanks for data. Certainly I would expect that sport mode would not be used when u want best mpg?

Replying to: jeyhoe (Jul 17, 2007 12:09 pm) I'm at 9 weeks and roughly 3000 miles with my LR2. Over the past few weeks I have averaged 17.8 mpg which includes a mix of 70-80 mph I85 travel to dead crawl Atlanta traffic. I do a fair amount of city driving as I live in midtown Atlanta. I've see 24 mpg with just interstate travel. Always normal mode using 93 octane gas ($3.17 lately). Replies to this message: 08lr3 (Jul 18, 2007 8:14 am)
