    That's a pretty mediocre best fill when you consider much more powerful V8 Jaguar was able to achieve a 29.9mpg best. I get the Porsche is a heavier, far less aerodynamic AWD SUV, but still, one would think 22-23 was achievable.

    I agree. The fuel economy on my Macan is terrible. I got less than 10 mpg on my first week with the car. It has since gotten better.

    During my breakin period (1st 2,000 miles driving less than 4k rpm), I averaged 20 mpg. If you drive a lot in the city with stop and go traffic, you will get <15mpg. If you drive on the freeway at 55-65 mph, then you can get 23-25mpg (especially when its mostly flat roads).
