Jaguar UK tweeted this promotional message on twitter on June 19th:

Weighing in at just 1665kg, #FPACE feels nimble behind the wheel. Enjoy the feeling for 762 miles on a full tank.

. . together with a dramatic picture of an FE in Caesium Blue, racing towards the viewer.

Just wondering, has anyone actually managed to achieve that distance on a full tank yet?
. . . or anywhere near??

 

[Jags cat]

That weight is for a RWD manual only, and although I am getting nearly 50 mpg on a new engine...(on short trips to and from work 8 miles). I think as we all know 762 aian't going to happen in the real world we live in, maybe 600 is achievable on a steady run. If Jag want to pay my wages and fuel to Scotland... I would be willing to try... :? However if they wouldn't stretch to a set of splash guards for the cat I can't see that happing either :lol:
And of course the FE you mention being pictured, only came with the bigger engine / auto box , and a number of extras....DOH!!! Don't mention the FE extras Jags Cat :roll: Oops think I got away with it... Just :?

52mpg overall from Barmouth to Stafford yesterday. Well chuffed. Not quite sure how that would calculate out as full tank range?

686.31 miles on a full tank...... not bad at all!

Now don't be expecting that in your SC!

 

[Ruski]

Well I assumed that for getting 52mpg it just has to be a 2.0 deisel and probably a manual. These have a 60 litre tank, the SC has a 66 litre so I will have a slight chance of getting maybe half that distance!!

Pretty sure the 3.0d is not 1665 kg, but more close to 1800.
I am guessing you can do that if you roll with 120km/h on a fine day on a straight road with no obstructions.

762 miles , i wish....
Ive had my car almost 4 weeks now and
week 1 was just over 400 miles
week 2 .....420
week 3 ......438 with 30 miles in reserve
overal average at the mo around 41-44 mpg

hoping as the engine loosens up it gets better

Had to do a double take .. I read that as 30 miles in reverse :shock:

No lol Reserve as when the fuel warning comes on, the warning actually comes on when you have approx 50 miles left i had done about 20 of those when i refilled

23.5 mpg at the moment - yeah great can't believe it's so economical for the size of car - for our American friends that's called irony.

If you vote to remain you will get better mpg, and your rear springs won't creak.

I'll get my coat.

That's the best argument I've heard!
