On a full tank one click, I get about 480 To 500km on average depending on my driving. Once I got about 350 on a full tank, a few months back. My driving style is usually rolling everywhere or driving like an idiot and thats how I roll. My car has never been on a long drive anywhere except the jhb highway.
