    We were in no hurry, we tried to maintain 90-95kph where practical. Fast enough for us.

    In my 86k driving the SDV6 I averaged ~9 on a combined cycle of inner city Brisbane and the M1/Bruce Highway. Never towed but always had the Rhino HD roof racks on.

    Actual consumption after we went through receipts on return, my partner kept a cost of every penny we spent. I must admit the figures were not all that different to the readout. I think because I didn’t reset after every fill. Only reset was after 9999 Kim’s as readout stopped there.

    My MY2013 SDV6 HSE typically gets 10 litres/100km around town and 14 l/100km towing 2.5 tonne full height off-road caravan. Best ever average figures for a trip are 7.4 (Melbourne to Seymour - tug only) and worst ever 18 towing into a stiff headwind down the West coast. Tyres are Maxxis AT980 255/55R19 at 40psi front and 45psi rear.

    Incidentally, I've got 60k out of the tyres (desperately need replacing now) and have not had any trouble at all from them over the roughest roads. Probably should put 50psi in the rear tyres when towing going by the wear pattern.
