The posted MPG figures for the 718S on the highway is 26mpg
Fuel Consumption
Manual PDK
City (estimate) 20 mpg 21 mpg
Highway (estimate) 26 mpg 28 mpg
Which is a bit less (28mpg?) than on the 981S.
Interesting....dropping the displacement by nearly a liter you'd expect a drop in consumption in a steady state highway mode but not on this model.
BTW, comparing the prices on the 718S--equipped the same way we have it on our 981S--the price goes from a MSRP of $66K to $75K in 4 model years.
Looking at the standard equipment and options, is it still correct that there is no bluetooth connectivity in the basic radio setup to stream music (Spotify/Pandora)? With the price on this model in the $70K without many options I'd hope that would be included given cars in the $20-25k range have it standard.
