Mercedes AMG sport review Autoh magazine issue 3 - Lazy journalism? - geoffken

This is a free magazine that is currently distributed free in NE England.

They have a review?puff piece for this model.

They state "the bonus is an average fuel economy of 68 mpg "

Also "go easily on a long journey and the long legged top gear will beat that figure"

Do you think Mercedes have really found the holy grail or just some sloppy journalism.

Quoting an unattainable official figure presumably, so sloppy journalism. Even sloppier if MB are paying for it and the magazine is pretending it isn't advertising.

A model of the new A class with the Renault derived diesel engine is reputed to be better than the advertised figures of 68mpg.
