It's across the board, every 2.0 I ever owned made between 22-25 urban and 30-35 being legal on the UK motorway, dropping to 60 might have made a difference but I needed the minutes rather than the mpg at the time.

Others that bettered it were both 1.8's, an Avensis that would return 25-28 urban and a Skoda Superb II dsg which 28 was the urban norm but 45 was the mixed figure, I had a 1.4 Golf as a loaner one time which was also a dsg and that ran the same figures as my diesel Passat at 30 urban.
