  • Aston Martin challenged ME to drive as far away from their headquarters as possible on one tank of fuel. The ultimate fuel efficiency challenge. 5.2L V12 Aston Martin DB11, 500 miles north to Scotland. Can I make it?!

    Yeah because everyone buying a V12 Aston Martin is worried about fuel efficiency lol

      @SMU_3L 7 лет назад +14

      DB11 is a GT car, meant for Grand Touring. Grand Touring is long distance, civilised people buy these cars to do long journeys in. Some people may car, probably not the majority of Pauls audience but some people

      +Samuel Wicks leave the ignorant bum, he's "state side" they pay the equivalent of about £6 for a full tank hence have no comprehension of consumption when they need to fill up again 60miles down the road with another measly £6

    Brilliant! Well done and can't wait for the second (fun) half. You've got an amazing channel and I've particularly liked your relationship with AML and all the DB11 related vids you've done. I think it is the most incredible piece of engineering and mechanics as well as being the most strikingly beautiful car I've ever seen...just sucks that I have to wait until May for mine to get over here to the US. I intend lots of GTs where the fuel economy will be a wonderful feature but also plenty of use of the full 600 hp and 516 lb/ft of torque and damn the mpg! Keep up the great work!!

    @Fern34348 7 лет назад

    FYI turning on the engine wastes as much fuel as about 10 seconds of idling, give or take 3 seconds depending on the engine, so at a red light it may save fuel, but in start stop traffic it will waste more probably.

  • @mantzk
    @mantzk 7 лет назад

    to start up an engine during Start/Stop events, it uses about the same fuel as it would burn in 5 seconds at idle. so if you stay stopped for more than 5 to 7 seconds in a traffic jam like the one you encountered, it's worth letting the system do its thing. on the other hand, if you are approaching traffic lights and you see the traffic ahead pulling away, it's better to keep it running.

      Supercars of London I would like to issue an official apology today on behalf of myself and Bruce Wayne.
      We have been foolish to think that idiots such as yourself reading this would understand the automotive industry on our level. We have intricate knowledge of cars and vast experience in automotive engineering, I myself am an expert in Superchargers and Bruce is the brains behind many aftermarket wing mirrors.
      Going forward I intend to dumb down my explanations but if you feel I am being too advanced feel free to reply and I can discuss on a one to one basis.
      For now we appreciate all the support you guys have given and to the haters out there we understand that not all people can be great.
      kindest regards
      Jason Howard Genova & Bruce Wayne (SOG

    Now having spoken to the engine engineer would you be able to tell me what would use more fuel? A naturally aspirated engine being pushed using all the power available for that particular engine or a downsized turbo engine being pushed within its turbo power band using all its peak power available for that particular engine ????
    For example both engines must be relevant for the car it's in e.g. Audi s5 the older 4.2 v8 vs the newer 3.0 v6 turbo

    @UniversityOfTurmoil 7 лет назад

    Whilst I am all in favour of fuel efficiency in daily drivers and Grand Touring cars, I don't think pottering up the motorway at 59mph as shown here is much of a useful test. I'd rather know what the 'real world' MPG figure and range is when you drive at a more realistic (if slightly illegal) speed. Sadly I'm now at an age where bladder range is more of an issue than fuel range :-(
