Also conducted a similar fuel efficiency experiment on my SUV under highway conditions.

Hello fellow BHPians,
To cut a long story short, I wanted to extract the best mileage out of my Tata Nexon petrol under city driving conditions so I refilled the petrol tank upto auto cut and drove with a very light foot and made sure that the tires have the correct air pressure (30 psi). Here are other parameters of my car:
- Car Model and make: Tata Nexon XZ+ Petrol, June 2022
- Service history of the car: Only 2 free services done to date. No oil changes.
- Full tank of Petrol: 44 Litres, filled till auto-cut at the station).
- Tire pressure: 30 psi in all 4 tires as recommended by Tata.
- Trip meter B: reset.
- AC: OFF
- Driving mode: City
Here are the results:
- Total km driven: 441.2 km
- Total fuel added before auto-cut: 33 Litres
- Mileage on MID: 15.7 km/l
- Tank-to-tank mileage: 13.36 km/l
I’ve conducted a similar experiment for best mileage under highway conditions for my Tata Nexon. You can find it here.
Would love to hear your opinions on the same.
