Verified gas consumption on highway

[zim]

Hi all !

I'm nearly ready (within 2 months) to buy an nsx, after all that time spent to dream about it..

However, I would like to have a feedback from you all about gas consumption. I spend nearly all my driving time on highway so I would like you to tell me what about your consumption (if you are in the same case as me). hummm.. maybe in liters/km? it would be more readable for me but otherwise it's ok anyway :smile:

Thanx a lot !

If you drive with the legal highway speed in Switzerland plus some city commuting and don't drive too wild you can go with 12 liters/100 km. If you drive on the autobahn on our side of the border it can exceed 20 liters, if you drive on a track you need more than 30

OTOH if you baby your car even 10 liters may be reachable.

On my trip from Louisianna to Virginia 18 hour drive... i was estimating about 11.5 litres/km

(hope my math is good)

1 gallon = 3.78542 litres
1 mile = 1.60934 km

ALL highway the whole way...

wow..

it's far more than the 9l/100km that I expected..
but ok, it's about the same (~11l/100km) as my current car.. a... hum.. i prefer to not reveal the model :wink:

I'll try to not drive too fast.. should be easy as i'm not a 'fangio'. problem is that I drive 'nervously' !

Hi

This is what my NSX has consumed since I bought it. I think it should be representative.

The lowest I had was on my way on vacation (just above the "two" in 28). Then I entered Germany and you see the consum went up, but the speed also trippled

The highest consum is when I drive only within the city and also when I had the car on the track.

The cost of fuel is not correct.

Regards

Hi Zim!

Fuel consumption is a neglecting part of owing an NSX. Depending on your driving style you can reach 9 to 20 liters/100 km overall. At 120 km/h in 5th it wouldn't exceed 9-10 l/100 km on the autobahn for sure unless you like to drive in 4th or 3rd. It's mainly the driver who affects fuel consumption not the car itself. If you like low end torquing and early shifting like me you can get less than 9 l/100 km overall. The rear tire 'consumption' is much worse.
There's quite a good number of NSX for sale in CH at the moment. But be careful. You can pm me if you like.

Greetings,
Thomas
