What is best mode on motorway for mpg ?

Dont think it makes much difference at a steady motorway speed. But for mpg the mode to use is eco at any time.

Hi all, I am looking to buy a used 1.8 chr probably the excel or dynamic, but have a few of questions I would like to ask if anyone can help: What sort of average mpg has anyone got on motorway driving? Aware this will be less than city driving average etc. I have heard the 2017 model has issues? D...

That is about removing the HV battery, not the 12v battery. You do not want to do that.

I will say I have been happy with it (the car and ...

Keeping key in pocket/bag. 2. Put foot on brake pedal 3. Press start 4. Wait a few secs until it beeps. (I usually put sea...

Hope you enjoy it - lucky you. Make sure you get the car explained to you as it is not “just” an automatic, but a hybrid so there are one or two little differences that confuse if you are not aware ( eg startup sequence, need foot on brake to engage drive, when stopping engage P before stopping igni...

Sounds like dealer got screwed op with the rules ;) I am no fan of stealerships, but to be fair it was not the dealer, he was being told by Toyota that the car availability had moved from Jan 7 to end Feb. He was just trying to explain why. Anyway all’s well....now I can get a car in Jan, even with...
