Driving on the highway at 110-120 km/h felt comfortable and one can get a fuel economy of 20 km/l if the car is driven at 80 km/h.
BHPian akhilshenay recently shared this with other enthusiasts.
I recently completed a road trip from Trivandrum to Chennai and back in the Elevate. ODO is now ~6500.
- Route: Trivandrum – Nagercoil – Tirunelveli – Madurai – Vilupuram – Chennai
- The route has 4/6 lane highway except for a 40km stretch between Parassala & Nagercoil
- Distance: 765km One way
- Tolls: ~1200 one way
- Travel duration: ~13 hrs
- Mileage: 15.6 kmpl
Can easily get 20 kmpl if driven at 80kmph. I was cruising mainly at 110 kmph.
The range of 110-120 kmph felt comfortable, and I occasionally reached up to 130 kmph. However, I became less confident beyond that speed, especially considering I was travelling with a toddler.
Attaching some of the pictures from the trip.
