I get 370km on one tank on the RS5, which is a 4.2 V8.
The tank size is 61L.
At 250km on one tank of gas, you'll be dinged the "green environmental" fee which is, if I remember correctly, $1,000 to $3,000 depending on the government measured fuel economy rating.

City driving or mixed? I love the RS5. So happy that they kept it N/A.
63s are notoriously thirsty though so I'm not surprised.. My cls was even worse than my m6 despite being less powerful..
I did notice a significant difference in mileage (~30-40 km more per tank) between running on shell V-power (no ethanol) vs Esso 91.
I would replace the air filters and clean the MAFs if the car has more than 50,000 km too.
