E10 versus E5 Petrol
Posted: Tue Dec 21, 2021 4:35 pm
I have a 2017 hybrid and I first used E10 petrol early in December on a long return trip from Scotland to Liverpool. To my surprise I only averaged 44mpg in both directions. This was with three up and light luggage. Recently I completed a return trip from Scotland to Nottingham, but due to my disappointment with E10, used E5 instead. I averaged 51mpg with four up and a very full boot. It worked out it was cheaper for me to pay the premium price and use E5 petrol. I use to get high 50s to low 60s mpg on my work commute, prior to E10 with only me onboard.
Has anyone else noticed their fuel consumption increase with E10?
