Hello everyone., I hav this lexus es300 2001 model v6. Please help me read the fuel consumption to know if its normal as this my first time wit v6. My previous ride was i4.
The fuel was on reserve tank showing red, I bought 2k fuel (11) litres and the fuel Guage got upto quarter tank. I'v done 18 miles from the odometer and the fuel range at the moment is showing 19 miles.
I don't know if this consumption is much as im not used to v6.

Fill up your tank drive and record the distance it took till it got to reserve do this twice. Then gimme the distance I'd calculate it for you before I advice you.

By the way where you base?

You buy a Lexus and 2.5 gallons of fuel and you are worried about fuel economy already. Seems you are not ready for the extreme cost of owning higher trims of cars

2.5 gallon is not enough to get accurate readings

Fill your tank up zero trip meter drive till needle reaches half way read trip distance and fill up tank again and not how much fuel from middle to full then calculate
