Hmm, curious about how different people's results seem to be.
Have had my 2010 Jetta since 2011, over 100 k now, and on a long highway trip can still regularly get 46-48mpg. Hand calculated tank. These being trips starting below Los Angeles, driving a couple hours of late morning traffic thru LA, up and over the Grapevine pass, then on the flat od the San Jaouquin Valley whch would be 80, 90, 100deg in the summer... with AC on full blast... 75-85mph... till I'm in the Gold country, or San Francisco, 400-450 mi later. Turn around after the convention or visit, drive till I need a refil, check my milage. Maybe it's the manual, I dont know. Always had stock sized tires/wheels, so no inaccurate mileage changing things.
Longest tank I've had was a bit over 635 mi, and I could have gone longer. Good price on GasBuddy lured me off early. Now, I used to have a commute 25mi one way, getting right on the fwy in a direction that had almost no traffic. 80-20% fast fwy. Got 40 a tank, regularly.
Nowadays, with a very short commute and more like 80% city, I get 30-32 tanks. It all depends. FWIW, my display has always been pretty close.
