Since owning my 3008 (1.6l Petrol auto) I have averaged 7.2l/100km (39.2 BMPG) over the life of the car. I've never reset trip meter no.2 and this is what it shows. I always reset trip meter no.1 when I fill up and it is generally also reading 7.2l/100km.

I do an equal mix of freeway and urban driving on my daily commute (40km round trip). Car was purchased in March this year.

Interestingly my old 2l petrol (manual) 307 got pretty much the same figures, but my wife's Hyundai i30 (petrol auto) can't get anywhere near this.

Given that the 3008 is larger and heavier than the 307, and also has a smaller motor and is auto, I guess that 15yrs of technological advancement has afforded me some additional comfort and convenience, but not much for the environment.
