Before COVID I was getting the high 40s. As I am now doing about 10 miles a month, I get the very low 30s.

Yes the front page shows an average go to second page and tap on average, then at top left you can see different months, years etc. My auto average around 40 each month urban travel only due to covid restrictions since new.

Hmmm well I don't use the App, but I'm not very impressed so far. With my previous 138 BHP C5 I was getting a guaranteed 43 MPG and it is 1:10 hills were I live in the Country, no motorways, no dual carriageways, so just windy country roads.

However on the C3 Aircross 1.5 HDi 100, I'm not seeing anything like I expected to be honest. I know it went in for an engine ECU update before I received it in December, so whether this has adversely impacted it I don't know, but I would of expected it to be far better than what I'm getting.

Our other 2007 C3 1.6 HDi 5 speed 92 BHP gets 60 MPG on the same journeys, so I'm not sure what is happening.....

These are the New European Driving Cycle Equivalent figures for my C3 Aircross with this engine, which are calculated using an EC correlation tool that converts WLTP figures to NEDC. Figures are litres per 100 km and MPG in brackets: My current MPG is in red so not sure where to put it, but I certainly don't travel at High Speed on rural roads, so not sure where they get this from as a category?

Low: Simulates driving in cities 5.4 - 4.9 (52.3 - 57.1) ?
Medium: Simulates driving in towns 4.8 - 4.2 (59.4 - 67.6) ?
High Speed: Simulates driving on rural roads 4.6 - 3.9 (62.0 - 72.7) 45-47 MPG
Extra High: Simulates driving on motorways 6.0 - 5.1 (47.0 - 55.8) ?
Combined: A mixture of the four above phases 5.2 - 4.5 (54.1 - 62.7) ?

I should add that none of the other cars had Stop Start technology and although the Aircross does have this, it doesn't work at present. So from the above, I'm getting less than city driving, yet we don't have a traffic light in site!

So if there is anyone else with a C3AC 1.5 Blue HDi 100, I would be interested to see what they are getting. I think it will be going in for a check as I can't see this being right somehow.

I would be wary of relying on these figures. From my experience they can be quite inaccurate compared to calculating from fill volumes. On one of our C3s the difference was ~10%. The figures above certainly seem low. My 2 .0 HDi C4 Picasso does better than that, but we are in the middle of winter and we are on lower calorific winter diesel, both of which will increase fuel consumption. If you run with aircon permanently on, that won't help either.
