Early days yet, but a couple of hundred miles in:

 

2.0tdi 150 DSG. 

 

Motorway: 55mpg

Work 11 mile commute with no coasting in eco: 45mpg

With coasting in eco: 55mpg

 

Edit: meant to put 51mpg on the commute with coasting 

These are the figures from a trip I made to Klaipeda, Lithuania in September/October as previously reported from Klaipeda under "What did you do to your Superb today?".  As previously mentioned, I did achieve over 62 mpg for a day when the weather was good and no major delays on the road, but it was knocked back by heavy rain, high winds and a car loaded to the roof on the way home.

2017 220TSi L&K Estate

 

Recent fill @32275 Miles Total fuel 4438 l @Ave Consumption - 33.01 MPG

 

Total Cost incl: Fuel, Servicing, 2off Michelin PS4, 4 winter wheels+tyres all in c £6650 or about £0.21 per mile

 

Expected cost in the near term, next inspection, possibly 2 new summer tyres in the spring.

 

All in I am happy with the VFM😁

I thought I'd share what a 280 can achieve with lots of 50mpg restricted motorway running, ACC behind bus/hgv. 

 

I managed15km/L or about 42mpg on the trip computer from Bristol to east London via m25. 2/3 of the journey I was just pootling at 50 or whatever the bus(65mph normally) or hgv(59on speedo) is doing with ACC . The rest just normal 70-75mph and normal driving in eco after getting off the motorway. Not amazing but at least I know if I do this, I can get 550miles easily a tank on a long motorway journey at expense of a bit of time. 

 

 

1.4 tsI 150 Sal. motorway driving restricted to 90 / 100 km/h with traffic results in 64 MPG

With mixed driving it's more 40+ Mpg with dips into the 30's for stop start traffic

64 on motorway is remarkable. 

2019 1.5 TSI DSG Estate enjoying ACC in Eco mode wherever I go is doing 42.8 mpg over the last 1100 miles but could commute from Winchester to Reading 53 miles on A34 /M4 achieving over 54 mpg on a nice sunny day with barely touching the any pedal.

Speed is restricted to -100k/mh and very gentle acceleration, in fact few changes in speed, and 90% of those are predicting traffic in front and using engine breaking.
Not doing anything mental with distance to cars in front though. Also using he "plus" type fuel e.g. https://www.circlek.ie/milesplus/

1.4 TSI dsg. Over three years and 17,700 miles ( yes I know, it doesn't go very far! ) I have a real figure of 38.7 mpg taken from garage receipts.

The mileage is getting better each year as the engine loosens up. I must just check the last year on its own as I think it would be a bit higher then.
