I get just under 20l/100km with about 70% highway driving. Stock with no roof rack.

I get 16.5 per 100km loaded with roofrack full of Camping stuff.
Stock wheels and tyres.

But I drive at 90kmh to save fuel

When I drove across the US and back this summer ~12,000km over three weeks I averaged 13.8 l/100km.

Lt 265/75-16 AT tires, TJM front bumper, sliders, stock under armor, no roof rack, 2 people, about 300 lbs of cargo on the Seattle to Montreal leg of trip.

What speed did you typically sit on on the open road?

I recently did a 2000 mile road trip and I got the followings: 6.7 KmpL (14.5 L/100 Km) at 115 KmpH. Stock with 265 75 16 AT tires. This is low due to winter fuel. Summer I usually get about 7.2 KmpL (13.88L / 100 Km) at 122 KmpH

Wtf is winter fuel?? Ignorant Australian asking

 

[nissanh]

Also note we have upto 10% ethanol in gasoline:
Winter fuel: Some additives are added to keep gasoline from coagulating.

Cruise was set to 65 mph (105 km/h) pretty religiously; anything over that and consumption went up dramatically.

 

[malisurat]

If you have to question fuel economy, perhaps the Land Cruiser isn't the ideal vehicle for you.

 

[D21FJ60]

best in mine with no modifications, 32" tires, old fluids plugs and coils was 13.07 l/km, but my average with those same specs is 18.82 l/km with suburban driving.

 

[MountaineerLC]

285/75r16 KO2's with ARB and winch, I'm averaging about 13mpg or 18L/100km.

 

[excessive]

i average 13 freedom liquid measurement units per freedom distance measurement unit

w/ winch, bumper, sliders, 1" lift, 33" tires

Fair enough! For what it's worth, I am completely stock on 285/75/16 with 400k and still averaging 16.8L/100km per tank.

Good Morning,
I found this discussion after observing the excessive consumption of my LC100.

Current consumption is 25l/100km.
I'm trying my best to drive economically.

Something is not right with this car.

Some facts about the car:

- AT 275 70/R18 tires.
- Prospeed roofrack
- Ac always on
- Recently fixed the O2 sensors

Any idea what could be causing this consumption above normal?
