Fuel consumption in a 2013 Polo?

Fuel consumption in a 2013 Polo?

I have a 1.2 tdi diesel 2013 vw polo with 94000 miles on the clock how many miles can I get on a full tank as I’m going on a trip around 200 miles there and back and want to know how much it will cost

Our answer:

Hi Felicity,

When new, the official fuel consumption figure for that car was about 3.3 litres/100km and it has a 45-litre fuel tank. If it achieves that (which is unlikely given the mileage and the fact that such figures are generally quite optimistic), it should do well over 1,300 kilometres on a tank. Even if it uses twice as much as the official number, it would still go nearly 700 kilometres on a tank of fuel. 

All this depends on your driving style and the speed you are driving at of course.
