In cold weather, it can get as low as 10 mpg, warmer weather over 40 mpg. It's under warranty, 5 years/60,000 miles. I only have 12,000 so far. 
My wife’s recently retired Phaeton - 6L 12cylinder engine - got around 12mpg. If you were going downhill. With a good tail wind.

Your engine HAS to be running way over rich in mixture. It WILL do damage over time - as it will carbon contaminate the oil. If they tell you " it' s normal to get 1/4 the mpg in colder weather" get a lawyer. In some states such fuckaround can end up getting you a brand new car...... I know it does in Michigan...

Don't worry, my daily driver is much better. It gets a whopping 16mpg highway! The Wife wants a Fusion, but we'll have to put it off until a Fusion could get in and out of the property.
