For the record, I drove it 332 miles, including a round trip from Los Angeles to Palm Springs, and got a respectable 51.7 mpg. |
Fuel economy is excellent on a long run, up to 70 mpg, and even in the city you will get upwards of 43 mpg. |
The motorway figure of 47 mpg shows the potential on long runs, so most owners should end up on the right side of 40 mpg. |
Thus, an 8-passenger minivan that gets 25 mpg must not be considered a gas-guzzler. |
The slippery shape also helps towards the claimed 50 mpg on motorway runs. |
Aircon, a six-CD changer, six airbags and sunlight sensors come as standard,and the diesel is a real stormer, returning over 50 mpg in exchange for a vigorous 110 bhp. |
