WRX cruising range

I wonder that WRX consumes gas so quickly.

Can WRX travel from LA to Las Vegas without stopping any gas station?

What about Impreza 2.5 RS?

Please respond. Thank you.

Re: WRX cruising range

How many miles is that? I would say "Yes," especially if you keep the speed down to around 65mph and you use the cruise control the whole way. Having your foot on the pedal burns more gas than using the cruise. But I don't know how many miles it is from LA to LV, so I may be either wrong or overly conservative here.

Well on a full tank going anywhere from 65-75 (traffic) I get about 390-400miles. on 15gallons for about $24. This is on a trip from Houston to the boonies in Fort Worth, little over 380 miles.


On avg. day to day driveing I can get about 360-380miles out of 15gallons. Depends on mood, and traffic.

In the summer I get about 350-360 miles cause of the AC usage and more beach, biking, and camping trips.

Oh...I drive a 2.5RS

Re: WRX cruising range

I've done a couple of trips between Las Vegas and LA on a WRX...yes it's doable. I get somewhere around 350 miles on highway on one tank, although it really depends on where in LA you are going to. I generally go to Orange county area, so it's well within the range. If you are going to Santa Monica with traffic...you may not make it.

Re: WRX cruising range

Well, if it's anything less than 300 miles you should easily make it on a tank of gas, so long as you use your cruise control as mentioned and don't 'lead foot' it all the way.
