W12 fuel economy rated 12 city/19 highway mpg EPA

The W12 returns 12 mpg city and 19 mpg highway on the EPA cycle. Real-world use sits lower with heavy throttle. A 90-litre tank supports long runs between fills.
Servicing follows a 12-month or 10,000-mile interval. Minor and major services rotate on a multi-year cycle. Fixed-price dealer plans cover oil, filters and checks once the car ages past four years.
Safety kit includes side airbags for every seat, a driver knee airbag, electronic stability control and permanent all-wheel drive. No independent crash-test star rating appears for this low-volume model.
Ownership means high parts and labour costs. Independent specialists can lower bills while following the factory schedule. The car suits long-distance touring when maintained on time.
