92% is it actually possible to get any higher?

Eco data,

Doesn’t matter how hard I try 92% is the best result, can get 5 out of 5 on both acceleration and breaking but I assume the speed icon is always 1 or at best 1.1

Anyone have any idea what you are supposed to do to get this figure any higher.

And yes I know it’s all academic as I didn’t buy the car to have a good fuel economy it’s just annoying me that it’s there and I can’t score any higher

Pics or it never happened

And please explain what speed I’m meant to be at to keep it happy as obviously under the speed limit doesn’t work

To be honest I think it was pure fluke

I’ll try and get pictures, it should still be saved in the history. 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue

Can’t you follow the EU manufacturers testing guides ….

Remove mirrors

Tape up all panel gaps

Over inflate tyres

Start at the top of a gradient and then let it roll down

Voila, instant believable real world efficiency test that’s good enough to put into the sales brochure

2015 Defender 110 Puma 2.2 XS CSW Orkney Grey

I used to have a similar score on a Mercedes A Class (great car but the rattles drove me mad).
The way to get 100% was to cruise on a motorway at about 60. Reset the score, then just don't brake or accelerate.

I’m getting 35/36mpg on most runs but still can not get the speed icon to be any better than 1

In fact this morning drove like I was driving miss daisy got 92% and 32mpg
On way back just drove it for fun, 88% and 35mpg

Thing makes no sense to me. L663 90ht

It’s definitely possible - as is good MPG if you drive like Miss Daisy. There is a bug where one of the driving scores is stuck on 1.0, I reckon this is your problem here. Try resetting the Pivi Pro.

ah interesting, as mine is never higher than 1,

is the reset for pivi to simply hold the on off switch for a few seconds? L663 90ht

Yes. Engine running and in park, hold the power button for 20 seconds or so until it resets.
