Surprised by MPG

[noby76]

so after a quick refuelling and a 20 mile motorway commute between Bedfordshire to Buckinghamshire below is the MPG readout. my speed was alternating between 55-65 mph. this is outstanding considering its a 3 litre V6 non hybrid/ non Diesel.  if i carried on the journey for longer i wouldn't be surprised if its capable of returning over 50MPG...quite impressive.. any GS300 owner beat this mpg?

Was that reset on a warm engine?

i believe the mpg computer auto resets after every refuelling so i don't bother manually resetting it.. to clarify i filled up on my lunch break and the 20 mile trip was after work not sure if being almost 20 degrees outside helped.. or possibly the fuel type..

Me!

Mind you, I've been very impressed an satisfied with the fuel economy of our GS450h - very similar to our previous diesel Volvo, despite significantly more power and performance. 

But it still costs more than 5x as much to fuel as my Tesla will (and my leaf currently does).
