Default How many miles/kilometers for every tank on average?

Hi,

I am doing some research on the HCH. The threads here have been very informative. I have been keeping track of the the FE on my '98 Accord for years now. The easiest way for me to do this is to keep a record of how the distance I travel on each tank of gas. On average, I get about 310 miles/tank (500 km/tank).

I know there is a thread here on the best mileage/tank. I am interested in what people are getting just with average day to day driving, not being obsessed with FE all the time.

Thanks!

I get around 700 km in the winter and 800 km in the summer. But I don't go all the way to no bars!

hi Dave, Not the same car but may be useful to you, check out my best distance here=>http://www.thespoils.8m.com/photo2.html for the NAH. Just remember the NAH has a 20 gal tank and involved some respect towards the accelerator. Good Luck

Looking at the data for my car, an HCH-I, in normal driving I averaged approximately 475 miles per tank. I averaged the data from all the full-tanks and excluded any "half-tank" data. This included my all-time worst winter tanks and my better warm-weather tanks. I never let the tank run all the way down; the fill-ups ranged from 10.9 gallons to 12.1 gallons to refill (The tank holds 13.? gallons; can't remember the exact decimal.)

Do you have a HCH I or HCH II?

Thanks.

I average about 800 kms per tank. I just pulled off an 1150 km tank. It was all highway and going the speed limit.

I only had the car since the end of June, I am getting around 900-950KM per tank. I noticed that once the low fuel light comes on, I can get around another 150-200KM on the car.
