Real-world fuel consumption
314 Mercedes-Benz CLE 300 cars registered in Europe in 2024 report their fuel use through the on-board meter. Plug-in hybrids use 5.3 l/100 km against 0.6 l/100 km on paper, with 38% of their distance covered with the engine off.
| Fuel | Cars | On the road | WLTP | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Plug-in hybrid | 314 | 5.3 | 0.6 | +834% |
Litres per 100 km: total fuel used divided by total distance driven, from the car's own fuel consumption meter (OBFCM), collected in 2024 by the manufacturers, mostly remotely, and by national authorities. WLTP figures are the type-approval CO₂ values converted to litres. Hybrids, including mild hybrids, do not plug in; plug-in hybrid figures include the distance driven on electricity.
