    1. In city you can get average of 11-13 depending on traffic and our driving patterns. I would recommend of driving in City mode. Eco mode would compel you to press on the acceleration more to surge ahead so chuck it. 2. There is a Insta FE meter in the center of the instrument cluster with reading from 0-30. Try to drive by keeping the reading more than half. That means the engine is consuming lesser petrol for that speed. And this applies for highway driving as well. I had been getting average around 12.5 in city and on highway I got 17.7. please note that I have got only first service done till now. Things can improve after 3rd service, when oil gets replaced.3. I read somewhere online that on highway, try to reach above 60km as fast as possible in city or sport mode and then switch to eco mode and try to drive with better insta fe reading on screen. That should help as well.

    I had a very bad feeling in the initial days of purchase, sometime I got ever 8kmpl as average, till 800km I was using only city mode while driving, after reading many articles I got some tips on nexon petrol amt driving 1). Use Eco mode always, I am getting average 13-14 in my place that is like semi city like traffic (within 1 month of purchase)2). Highway also I am using Eco mode and getting 18.2 in odometer and 17.2 kmpl when I check manually (within 1 month of purchase)many are complaining about Eco mode, but I could not find much difference in eco and city mode so i opt Eco as I my mileage improved a lot Tip for improving1). Never exceed 2000rpm2) in Traffic signal or waiting time Change gear to neutral rather than putting break and gear will be 1 by default3).Always use Eco mode and rare case use city/sports in hill area and put it back to eco mode in 99% of driving conditions4) Reset trip to zero so that it will calculate actual mileage of present trip rather than averaging from beginning** Sure mileage will improve further as my vehicle ran only 1100 km Actually Tata team should educate people to

    I purchased the XZ+ petrol. Here are the stats: City - short distance(upto 5km)- 8-10kmpl. With appropriate gear shifts and less breaking, I get 11.5.In traffic, the mileage drops significantly. Not sure how to handle that bit. City - long distance(10km+) - 10.5-13kmpl. I switch to eco mode once i've crossed 3-4km. Once the car is cool enough, reducing the AC helps in improving the mileage by a fraction Highway- honestly I've stopped using sports mode, unless there is actually an empty road(which is almost never), defeats the purpose of being an SUV. I'm getting 17-21kmpl. Switching to eco mode helps in improving the mileage. In short, appropriate gear shifts helps and less dependency on break and clutch helps too. The 3rd service is due next month. Really hoping the city mileage to improve.
