Yo guys, I just got my x50 flagship on Christmas Eve. Went up to penang for the new year week. Filled up full tank at Georgetown and after 5 days of city drive, tank was blinking. Is this normal? At about 20l/100km, it’s a lil bit too high no? I’m getting 250km max on a full tank of city drive (on eco mode) ????!!
Anybody else experiencing this? It’s crazy high yo.. I think can challenge F1 FC at this rate zzz

Question, between the range topping X50 and the range topping City RS Hybrid, what decisions made you to own the X50?

I am in the same dilemma as well. Looking for a new car maybe half a year from now

Can safe fuel but at constant highway speed. That the cons having small displacement turbo engine. Some manufacturers combo it with CVT to get a bettee fc.

You are considering City RS Hybrid meaning that you are concerning about FC, go for City RS Hybrid for sure

Your Current FC looks reasonable at 1st gear of 19.9L even at Eco Mode (as petrol cars are very inefficient at lower gears). You will need to get to 7th gear at 90-115km/hr on straights to achieve around 5.5L-6.8L/100km if you are light footed. Personally I did not experience any fuel improvement even when driving long distance hovering around 6.6L/100km. My current drive is around 6.6L-6.8L/100km (99% on eco mode) and usually for a full tank the trip computer shows me a total distance of around 650km-711km (max). Try learning by getting used to your car and how you could maximize your daily commute I am sure you could do better. (Also I did notice FC improvements after over 4000km mark)

Probably this is not normal. Actually I did almost the same after recieving the car. Driving up to Penang, then 3 days around the Georgetown area (absolutely hell meanwhile, traffic jam at ANYTIME, unbelivable they still have not LRT up there), then back. Had about 10l/100 km overall. But for citydrive only it is surely much higher. So check the total trip.

Have you test drive both car? City engine is underpower. Once you've driven X50 you'll know which car to get for sure. Unless FC is a concern, else X50 beats City inside out.

I drive back from Melaka and then balance in KL...I got around 530km (filled the tank absolutely to the full, and when I refuel there was around 50km range left). In KL I'm lucky don't drive during jam. My FC based on meter was 13.6km/L (7.35L/100km) for that tank, but in reality my calculation says I only got around 12.8km/L (7.81L/100km).

How is this? I consider myself light footed, but I will slowly build up to 100-120km/h whenever possible then maintain. On the highway, on the way back from Melaka, it was 120-140km/h.

EDIT: No eco mode (I don't see any significant difference w/ and w/o eco mode to be honest). Exec variant. Mileage around 2k.
