Look at the thread on this forum called "what fuel economy are you getting?" You'll see what different people are getting. I've got 3200 km on my 2008 tech and have been getting 13.3 l/100km.

for what it's worth, you won't see the best fuel mileage from your vehicle until after a few thousand miles.

for the first 500 miles or so, my RDX was getting 16mpg combined highway/city. Now I'm at 2,100 miles and it's up to 19mpg combined.

I've heard others say that it kept improving until they got to 5-6,000 miles.

when I got mine, I averaged 17.5 L/100km for the first few hundred kilometers but now after 1700 km I'm getting 15L/100km,same driving habits (80% city, 20% highway).
