Fuel consumption for W204 FL C180k

[Guest garrytjhin]

Hey bros, I just got my ride 2 wks ago and I'm wondering how's the FC like for normal driving? I noticed tt my on-board computer states tt I'm doing 12-13 L / 100km which is only around 7+km/L when I'm not a heavy footer!

Is tt normal?

Hello garry,

got my c180k 5 weeks ago, During my first two weeks it was 13+L/100km. Now after doing 1500km, driving almost the same route, it is now about 12L/100km. 80% driving kids to and from school. 20% on the HW.

Not heavy footed at all, but because of the start stop traffic to school, this car revs 2.5k - 3k rpm at "take-off", consuming alot of juice. And at red ligh it drinks alot too.

I drove 20km on HW and returned 8L/100KM. But stuck on very slow road after the HW for 5 mins, quickly becomes 9L/100KM. ie 1L/100KM more within 5mins.
