M25 had a 50 limit some of the way, between 70-80 on A1m and M11, then speed limits on A406 and in town.I was looking up at the sky through the glass roof to see if I could see any pigs flying

Well so far having only done 93 miles my 1.5dci shows 37mpg average and a best of 53!, I think that was on the way back from picking it up going up the A1. The rest of my trips have been fairly short 3 to 6 miles each way.One thing I can't see is the ECO option?, I thought there was a button (according to the manual there is) to switch on the Eco Mode driving system?, no button that I can find.

The Mercs and other cars have a button marked ECO to turn off the Stop/Start..I don't think the QQ has that option...it's just always on.The Eco driving scores is an App. It rates things like cruising performance, braking etc...it rates those elements and then gives you an overall ECO score.You need to go in to the apps to see it, it's not displayed by default after every drive.

[quote="Donkey"]this is my concerni think these will love 50-60 driving 80-90 i think its going to burn bad[/QUOTE]
I doubt it, certainly will not be as great as driving at 70 but I bet if you stick to over 80 the mpg will still be impressive.

Its a small engine so I cant expect great economy but then all smaller engine cars drop at over 80mph its the only place larger engines kick in and take over but I can live with that after all its my choice the speed i throw fuel awayanyone found a way yet to reset the eco app? this is going to get me into trouble lol

[quote="Donkey"]anyone found a way yet to reset the eco app? this is going to get me into trouble lol[/QUOTE]I thought there was a really clear option that just says reset history or something on the ECO app. I know I reset it really easily when mine arrived so it monitored my driving and not that of the delivery driver.
