Good vid as usual. Watched all your vids before my new 2017 S3 arrived, and you had me worried re the mpg. Anyways, i just did 188 miles around suffolk a and b roads using only Economy setting and got 39 mpg, so im happy that it can do hi mileage if you dont mind a boring ride for a while.

I have the exact same S3 and covered nearly 6000 miles. I drive 500 miles on motorway every month and I get between 35-38 mph. That's keeping within the speed limit with some aggressive acceleration. Agree the faster you drive the car the more fuel it will drink. I mainly drive in comfort mode.

I get like 380 miles a tank (40L) in my 1.2TSI Ibiza FR from 70% motorway driving, the rest mixed/urban. I was debating an S3 but with my annual mileage it's just not feasible, especially after watching this!

how much is a full tank and how often do you fill it up :)

My 2014 S3 doesn't sound like that when I start it up. Mine's a lot quieter. Have you had it tuned?

I'm wondering how this compares to the TFSI 2.0 petrol in the A3 with the smaller turbo for economy.

Much different with air conditioning on vs off? My vw does

I get 15 mpg on my S3 and it's got barely 1000 miles on it and I've been driving it in auto or comfort mode most of the times. I wanna take it to the dealership and have them take a look at it. Basically, I get 180 in a full tank driving moderately. Air conditioning can affect on fuel consumption a lot.

Should put it into efficiency mode and then go on a motorway trip, realistic/mature driving, 80mph seems to be the sweet spot I've seen in every car I've driven

Should I change my 335d 16 reg for a Audi S3?

I got the pre-facelift S3 and get on average 550 km from a tank, which is about 340 miles. And I'm not driving slow... You are either doing something horribly wrong or your car has problems... Should look into that!

Sweet video bro

I was going to buy one thank you fir the heads up 18 mpg lol put me off

I have a S3 2010 facelift and I love it. it chows petrol, depending on how I drive.

So, I bought a demo S3 Sportback with 4,5K on the clock. After driving for about 7 weeks it isn't that bad. the best I got on a run was around 46MPG. I can get 360miles per tank (driving normally) P.S does anyone know what the tyre pressures are?

What do you do for a living

I think it's all about driving style and type of driving. I easily get 30+ mpg on motorway journeys in my S3. In London I get about 18 but I do like to put my foot down. If I chilled out and put it in efficiency mode I may get 20. You don't really buy this sort of car for efficiency though, if you're commuting daily then you should definitely not get this car! Also you've got to remember that in the tests they will drive the car at 70 on the dot and avoid any breaking in order to increase mpg stats.

+Anonymouse This is an old video where the car had less miles on it. I now get over 20 driving locally and 40+ if driven on motorways at reasonable pace. But yes driving style is definitely the key thing.

I thought it was only my S3 was terrible on fuel efficiency. I guess it's not just mine then. I get like 25 mpg on average. On a full tank I get around 200 to 250 miles depending on driving. However even in efficiency mode I can't get significantly more the 25mpg. It's a massive drop from my Golf GTD. but hey, it's an S3.

I get 300 + miles out of a tank on my s3

mile on a tank are not great, I'm looking at trading my S1 in for an S3 in December but now not so sure as my S1 does roughly 250-260 miles on a tank (Always driving in Dynamic mode)

I drive on dual carriage everyday 14miles aday. Been thinking of a S3 but wondering about fuel mostly. My current car for last 8 years is a 320d (tuned 226bhp) 14miles a day on duel carriage 50 to 90. Full tank £75 last upto 3weeks 3days. Motorway full tank gives me 680miles. So.....now i am hesitating if can make the sacrifice to get a S3, i dont do much local driving

18 miles/imperial gallon is terrible. For reference, that's 15 miles/US gallon. My 2017 s3 gets almost exactly the sticker estimate. My commute is 70/30 city/highway and I average 24 miles/gallon which is 28.8 miles/imperial gallon. That's mixed spirited driving.

You say 5k a year, do you drive other vehicles? Or work from home or? New sub bro.

I get up to about 45 mpg on a good run on motorway 30 odd running round town and near 400 miles to a tank I got the 1.4 tfsi a3

Hello TR. I'm getting about 27 mpg around town with mine - your foot's too heavy mate!!! :-D. On a motorway run recently I got 42.3 mpg - but that was with the cruise control on and set to 60 mph - I know, not fast but I wanted to see how efficient it could be. Come the warmer weather and these figures should improve anyway....I hope. But anyway, it's an S3 and I've spent too long driving 'efficient' cars, now's the time to party!!! All the best, mate.

I'm averaging 28 mpg (US gallons) with my 2018 S3. :D

Sorry, but if you’re driving it like a hot hatch, you’re going to get low MPG. I have a 2014 Audi S3 with an APR Stage 1 tune in Australia...and I get approx 8.5Liters per 100km urban driving, and gets down to 6.7 liters per 100km on highway driving. It’s more economical than my old 2011 Hyundai Elantra 1.8 N/A 😂😂.

The European test cycle is so off, its not the manufactures fault they have to use it to benchmark against other cars. The "urban" cycle is something like accelerate to a constant speed of 60km/h, then brake. Then repeat 3 times. That is not way near what it should be. The best thing is to check US EPA figures and it will pretty much be that give or take.

+TR Hamza How are the financial costs in terms of payments if you didn't get it cash. I mean what was the deposit and how much are you paying monthly. Also are you on a PCP or HP.
