2024 BS 1.5 T.

I would love to know what others are getting in fuel mpg. We just bought ours had 2000 miles on it . Was a loaner . But if we hit the highway keep it at 65ish at the end of the trip ours said we got 40.something and it's not hybrid. I did have it in eco mode

21 OB with 1.5

On long highway trips, when using Eco mode, I am in the low 30s.

Still not bad at 30 I tried to post a pic

The 1.5l uses cylinder deactivation at cruising speeds to improve fuel economy. Instant fuel economy on my '25 is between 38-40 MPG when using ACC on open highways. On contested highways, fuel economy will be much less as ACC is constantly adjusting vehicle speed to maintain speed and distance from the vehicle in front of you.

That is only for 44 miles.

We like the room. We looked at so many makes and really like size of this. Then with the extended warranty they offered us we would have been nuts not to get it

It’s surprising what you can fit in this thing. Almost 600lbs of flooring I ripped out over the weekend and took to the dump

Welcome!

Average is 33 on the highway in eco or normal mode., always using the cruise control. In town probably around 25, I’ve never calculated that, but it goes way down and I don’t usually remember to change to eco. Idling seems to use a lot of gas.

I like the roominess too, but have never sat in the back. They are pretty cool vehicles.

This was on the way home. When we got to beach it said 40.8 I drive easy.

Computer-indicated fuel economy is notoriously inaccurate, especially over short distances. Factors such as wind, temperature, vehicle weight, when the pump clicks off, etc. can all have significant impact on computed fuel economy. The only way to get an accurate fuel economy figure is to hand-compute fuel use over several tanks--Ford says at least three.

I would like more information, straight road no stops or hills, traffic or congestion, octane of fuel. All are factors of mpg.
I would like you to give us information on the new MHC and other performance indicators. I have a BB and use 93 octane fuel . 50% of time with 10% ethanol and 50% ethanol free and experience in heavy traffic 27 and highway 31. Thanks And enjoy the ride.

2023 Big Bend, 1.5L, 61000 miles. 90+% highway travel on ACC. Normal mode.
Low: 27.27
Avg: 31.78
High: 37.64
These are calculated numbers. I use an Android App called FillUp.

Will try that also

Mine has 87oct, the road was hilly very small ones. From coast of miss to coast of Florida stayed about 65 so traffic went passed like I was sitting still but me and 3 other cars fell in together and cruised I 10 over to beach. When we stopped at beach car said 40.8. The way home it was hot afternoon so milage made it to 40 but was about 37 when made it back to miss.

The display will probably be around 1. MPG higher than actual. Calculate it at fill up to get an accurate figure.

Still impressive.
