    Audi rapped for 'misleading' mpg claim




    Audi has been rapped by advertising chiefs for 'misleading' claims that its Audi A3 TDI model could do 68.9 miles per gallon (mpg). Motoring writer Maria McCarthy takes a look.

    Motorists in the know are aware that there's a difference between the fuel economy rates a car manufacturer might advertise and what you would get in everyday driving.
    This is because official figures are based on EU standard test procedures which don't bear much resemblance to motoring in the real world.
