I just fished this picture out from my archives, taken during a trip from Detroit to Ottawa in Easter. My car is a `97 Passat TDI. Car was fuelled with Amoco Premier (winterized), vent trick but not brimmed. There were 3 passengers averaging 170 lbs. in weight and a full trunkload of cargo; cruise control set between 115-120 km/h (72-75 mph) indicated with occassional bursts faster.
Picture shows nearly 800 kilometers (499 miles) travelled and well over half a tank of fuel left. If the accuracy of the gauge is anything to go by, I'd guess about 34 litres consumed to give 4.25 litres/100km or 55.4 U.S. MILES PER GALLON
