Because of Cylinder shutdown technology when cruising I am getting 30-36 on longer journeys and an average of about 25 around town, and to be fair I'm not trying to save fuel, so I'm sure it can be bettered. being remapped soon so should increase power/torque but also benefit fuel consumption slightly as well - its an awesome engine and in the A8L is detuned slightly from the S8 plus has longer gearing. It gives out 435 bhp with full torque from 2000 up to 5300 rpm and you cant even feel the cylinder shutdown tcnology cutting in and out (clever computer controlled active engine mounts)
