Dear stallion,
The range of an LR4 is about 325 miles. The capacity of the tank is 22 gallons. I get 16.8 mpg on avg.

wow, thats pretty good. I have been getting 13-14/gallon. I am in the first 1000 miles. Does it improve as the engine is broken in?

Also, I guess I am chicken and fill it up too soon. I have not been able to put more than 17.5 gallons in it.

If I'm good when taking a trip, I get about the same at 325 per tank. I have never pumped more than 17.8 gallons in at a fill up even when the computer said zero till empty. The manual says it has a 3 gallon reserve and I guess it must. I have never been brave enough to run her down more than that.

My numbers on the road are better than 17mpg. I just turned 11,000 miles last night after my run at a local state park.

I have 1700 miles on mine and no matter what I do I cannot get better than 14.7 mpg. I drive almost exclusively within our little town, maximum of 40 miles an hour...not sure if I'd show better numbers with highway miles.

2500 miles in and I am getting 18.0 avg....much better than I expected to be honest...

We average about 14MPG and seem to have to fill up every 250 miles or so

I have about 7500 miles on my '11 and the range for a full tank runs from about 300-325 miles. My driving includes mostly highway or roads with limited stops. I average a little over 16mpg.

There seems to be a sweet spot around 50-65 mph that you can get really good gas mileage. That is where my truck is most of the time on the roads around my area. If I drive faster than 75mph on the interstate, all bets are off for what kind of mileage I will get. Around town at 30-45 I don't get that great of mileage.

I wish i had all of your numbers. I have 18K on mine..i live in New York where my average speed is 30-40 and the BEST i can get out of my baby is 13mph when i am running around the gridlock of Gotham City. I had to change my brake pads at 11,500K as well from all of that stop and go driving (10 months after purchasing the vehicle off the floor). I just came back from a roadtrip upstate where i drove over 400 miles one way and i reset my fuel trip odometer and compared it with an outside GPS FUEL device and i registered 18.1 MPG which did make me smile. ALL was not lost...just my region.

I also got 380 miles out of a full tank as well. I did let it get it down to the empty warning signal of less than 10 miles to empty as i knew i had a gas station less than 5 miles away. Rest assured i will be one of the first to get the Range_e (Hybrid Diesel) model next year if it releases as planned. They are projecting 690 miles on a full tank of gas and 85MPG. I am usually not a first year model purchaser but i took a chance with the LR4 and i am absolutely in love with this truck and so far no major issues at all. With gas approaching $5 a gallon now...i know they say if you own a Rover, gas was never a worry but that statement will start to charge if something is not done.
