With those 230-gallon tanks, I bet the endurance is almost a full hour (with day VFR reserves).

That's a ~40 gal per hour airplane in cruise. I know a fellow Twin Bonanza owner that has an Excalibur version similar to this (with IO720s), he reports ~36-40GPH at ~180ktas.

That's not bad at all considering the size of the cabin. It doesn't matter how much gas I burn in my living room sofa, it doesn't go anywhere near 180 knots.

Mine does 155-160kts on 26gph. Same cabin, smaller engines.
