Same here....I had a 2013 TDI wagon from brand new to just under 10k miles and I think the BEST it ever did was around 34, usual average was mid 20's, sometimes dipping lower in winter.

Significantly worse than my GLK250, and it was a far lighter car, manual trans, better aerodynamics, smaller tires, and no 4 wheel drive....and 68 less HP.

It did regens....a LOT...every few hundred miles or so. Way more often than my GLK does....which is probably every 700-900 miles based on what I've noticed.

It was a terrible vehicle, hence my dumping it at a year/10k miles. Thankfully hardly any financial hit because they were a hot commodity at the time and I bought another vehicle from the same dealer to replace it. ('05 C240 Wagon, which was awesome)

Just drove my GLK 158 miles today at 80+mph and it netted 33.7mpg
