Hi Forum
Got my Kona n line 1.6 9/7/24 2,000 miles on it now
Very happy with it so far , slightly disappointed with average miles 47 mpg however I do live in North of Scotland.cold and hilly.
First time with an automatic so that may also be a factor.
Is it normal for the DCT to over rev when the engine cuts in at start off? it seems to stay in first gear for longer than necessary ( eco mode )
I haven’t tried it in sport mode yet
Regards
Kingkona

I too have a 1.6 hybrid with 2,000 miles on the clock and I'm averaging 43 mpg. I put this down to the fact that it's a 2.3 miles climb up the ridge to my home. I get 60 mpg down to Hillsborough but less than 40 on the way back.

Otherwise, I'm happy with the car given that my last vehicle was a VW Transporter averaging less than 30 mpg.
