at motorways speeds (outside lane) it still returns 45mpg.

the main factor is the right foot - if i use 50% throttle it is still quicker than most small engined ptrol cars with ease, it is when i use all that loud pedel i see the economy drop. Worst i ever saw was 36mpg.

Until i get the issues fixed i am going to limit myself to 75% throttle i think so should still get 40mpg out it
