Fuel Consumption

Who have collected your ride yet? SE told me FC is about 13-14km/L, anyone got about this range?

visited the showroom on Sat. SE told me 1.6EX FC is 13-14km/L. And 1.6SX FC is 11-12km/L.

Hi Gravin... Huh how come EX's FC is different from SX's FC?

Is it due to the difference in weight? Not very likely if you ask me...

I would only think there will be a diff if it is an auto or manual (Auto sapping more energy and thus drinking more fuel...)

When you were at the showroom, were you looking at the EX?

No la...i tink it is due to the difference in the rims+tyres. EX 15", SX 17" ma. My SX giving me 8.5l/100km most of the time.

so far whats the best fc u guys have recorded?

My best FC was 7.8l/100km...but tat was like 85% highway.

My SX average FC 10L/100Km....only.

finally booked a 1.6SX (A) today! Yippie!!!

Checked with the SE again, she mentioned SX is 11-12km/L. I would say likely due to tyres. 17" will definitely drink more than a 15".

Hi guys, issit the lower FC the better? And what about the FC for honda civic and Toyota vios, cos I want to make a comparison

Mine show 7.8 l/100Km base on the reading=100/7.8=12.8km,
but base on manual calculation the distance i travel 349km/28.0 L fuel i just top-up=12.5km(Before Servicing)
Travel speed @ average 80km/h (still run-in) and 15" rims.
75% highway 25% city driving.


First fuel consumption clock after 1000k servicing.
Last thursday fill to the brim , today also fill to the brim.
mileage 409.7km
Fuel 33.88l
Travel speed "you know lah...no need to tell lah... "
75% highway 25% city driving.
FC 12.1 L/Km

HaHaa..
typo error,same thing happen in MCF.

many of us easily forget that tyre pressure also plays a colossal role in FC...just increase the pressure to a degree thats not too bumpy for you and still within safe manufacturer's limit and FC will definitely be better

Bro, Very good FC.
BTW what's your rims size.

zlement: jus curious, after u pump 39.5L, wad does the trip computer show for ur Distance to Empty??

HAHA. just realised something silly common to many car forums in sg. we list our FC figures without stating whether our rides are AUTO or MANUAL. Enormous diff as all should know.

PLEASE state clearly brudders & sistas

bro, n also 80% highway 20% city is super hard to achieve leh.
For me is normally 60% highway (with jams) 40% city.

Bro, Very good FC.

i'm on original 17" rim. i'm driving a 1.6 SX (A).

zlement: jus curious, after u pump 39.5L, wad does the trip computer show for ur Distance to Empty??

Wow bro, nice.

Paper quote full tank 52L, u used Shell 95 30.5Liters and travel 567km with speed ard 90-100km/hr. Must keep this for reference....

My neighbor is driving an older cerato and he quote the FC is around 9-10km/l only....

Actually im not sure, does it matters? I tot its all about the route and "qin gong" of the paddle foot? hehe

Manual should be able to cough out a better FC but if the driver is a redliner...also no use.

Yes, itz true. Fuel comsumption it all depends on driver. And if you are the type that always like to chiong, even if you have a very energy saving car, you use it like running tap water, so whatz the point.

Best FC is still BMW - Bus Mrt Walk

Agree, but if really want to save petrol to increase FC, can try ever 2k rpm change gear.... then cruise at 80km/hr all the way...

Distance travel since last full fill.

Distance to Empty

Average fuel consumption by meter reading

No photoshop

Yes it does matters bro. for similar style of driving under similar conditions, auto always consume more petrol than manual.
