As I said originally I was a bit gob smacked at how well the economy ran, as I considered the D4 as the "new kid on the block" so to speak with good power and better economy.

I was expecting about 45mpg so mega delighted. The upshot is I can press the loud pedal more often and still return 40+mpg

Coming from a petrol V70 T5 and a V70 AWD R even that's a 25% improvement.
