Yesterday I needed to refuel (again, something that always appears to come back, perhaps we should invent vehicles that do not use something that depletes at all :-). The km statistics were the record for my all-time Volkswagen Golf 5 so far. I drove 970km on one tank. The onboard computer calculated that I could easily drive another 130km still. The “need refuel” icon didn’t light up yet as well. So, I did a very nice job I think :). The last 2000km I drove around 1:20,2 l/km which is my best global statistic so far. I also have the record of 1:28 l/km for a single travel (Rotterdam to The Hague, passing two 80km zones, driving ~95-105 (on the dashboard, not GPS) for the remaining track.
I am proud on that! I was one of the first 5 cars in the Netherlands that was a Volkswagen Golf 5 Bluemotion, and I already have the Dutch record with that car (or at least Van Udenhout didn’t hear about these statistics before :-)), so I would like to remain driving in line with other cars, not breaking the speed limits, and driving as economical as possible ![]()
