Real consumption when you are in the eco mode on the highway under 130km/h is approx 7 liters. In the city without extensive trafic jams in normal mode you can reach 7,5 liters. Of course, these measures applies only when you are not in the mode - pedal to the metal :) but even for daily commute this is an amazing machine. What else can take away office stress better than a cold start on undergorund parking when the car makes such beautiful noise, or when in sport mode and coming down on revs for red light stop:) great car!

You only need to shift from 1st to 2nd. Second bounces off the rev limiter just above 100kh, that's why a lot of reviewers have awful times.

It's not the camera angle. It's just that most reviewers are sitting too far back, often too laid back. If you attend a driving school, chances are you'll find out you've been sitting wrong behind the wheel all your life. Granted, you have to make do with whatever adjustment is available in a given car, and it is sometimes difficult to find the optimum sitting position, but it's not me too close to the wheel here. I need to be able to turn the steering wheel quickly, and I won't achieve that with my hands stretched out.
