Well just back from about a 2,000 mile round trip from central PA to St. Augustine with a side trip to Silver Springs, FL while there. The 2019 Passat 2.0 liter 4 cylinder engine performed like a champ. Here is a picture of my dash readout on the second day of the trip. When I filled up, I was close to 43 mpg.
And just to show it can be done with a little hyper miling, I present evidence of a 50 mpg dash readout!! You can see from the "Following too closely" symbol that I was behind an 18 wheeler doing a nice bit of drafting.
The car performed flawlessly. No oil consumed (using the VW 508 oil) and everything performed as it should. Car now has about 21,000 miles on it and this was the second trip to Florida for this car.
