Latio not as good as mention.....

[car_man]

By your reasoning (our first half used up faster), I'm already getting 400km. And (very slow on the second half), that means I will be getting more than 400km for the next half lor?

Hmm...... or have they installed my tank upside down?

If your first half is 400km, i assume your overall mileage can clock to 700km till empty?correct me iif i'm wrong. .

[baobao]

yo.. my last full tanks usually get 13++km/l le
i will clock about 270-290 at 1/2 tank..
when go pump petrol, i will divide the milage by lit of petrol pump in..
is that correct?? if so, why all the latio got diff readings at 1/2 tank?

different driving patterns, different traffic loads, etc

[capcorn]

i am getting 14 km/L consistently...70% highway and 30% city...

there are a few times when i off the aircon while i was driving alone on the highway
and I get 15++ km/L

I calculate my mileage tat way also....i think this is the best way u can calculate...

For 1/2tank reading...like some of the guys here mentioned, depending on ur driving style and driving conditions....previously, I use to take BKE -> PIE to & fro work...as the traffic at PIE is often heavy, there are many times I have to come to a complete stop and move off again...this consumes more petrol...

Now, I take BKE -> SLE -> TPE-> KPE.....longer distance, but can mantain average speed of 80km/h without braking to a complete stop...and my FC improves...

Even if the FC improves, but you have to travel longer journeys.  So the net effect in terms of money paid for fuel can be about the same.  Time wise can also be about the same (depending on how bad the jam and how far more you trave).

Hi HC,
Longer distance + smooth traffic should be better than shorter distance + jams, depending on how far the distance plus the jams too like what you have mentioned. But I rather take a longer journey to minimise jams plus stress.

Hi Jazz,

I agree with you on the part that it will be less stressful.  I was just trying to highlight that improving FC in the manner as stated has no monetary saving, and also time perhaps.

Hi HC,
Monetary saving and time cause by jams is grey area, depending on the distance and the jams condition.

Totally agreed....on PIE....when it is jammed and super slow traffic...pple tends to change lane here and there at short distance...and if u r tired and not paying attention.....accident can happen...so i rather take a longer distance and drive relaxingly...besides...i get to save on ERP for  now....

I am getting less than 12km/l.

12km/l is considered economical for 1500cc auto car.

Those who get 14km/l probably travel >80% highway driving and are very light footed.

Me too and mine 4A/T and has been like that since day one when I got the car which was incidentally a couple of months back....

I calculated the mileage to litre ratio and it works out to only about 11.5km...my top up indicator lights tends to light up after about 430km of traveling then after I top up about 38 to 39 litres of petrol...really disappointed with this car...even my previous Kia Rio can give me an average of 12.5km/ltr....and mine you it had even achieve 750km to 45L on a 70/30 (Highway/City) route...

have send in for tuning but didn't work too...wonder how many others Latio here faced similar problems

[MadMatty]

Ok guys, my mileage at half tank.



It's true, I can squeeze in another 13 ltrs after pump trigger auto ejects. I ever told the people at TC Ubi service centre about it and asked them to check my fuel tank.

but what is the amount of litre you pump it???? 45L? or 58L which would simply be impossible...

Highly possible is that the needle is faulty causing wrong reading...

My Latio's mileage is same as yours.

Very disappointing considering that Latio uses  a lightweight aluminium engine and its gross body weight is not too heavy at 1110kg for a 1.5l car.

Hi guys! thats my milege at half tank.....looks like its on track to hit 16km per litre

[maxngck]

Hi guys! thats my milege at half tank.....looks like its on track to hit 16km per litre

u guys good lor. this is almost my full tank milage 

[Latiorarri]

Hi guys! thats my milege at half tank.....looks like its on track to hit 16km per litre

Wah this is really good. 

Is your car still stock condition?? What petrol and EO you use??

Can share again your milegae before ur next pump??

[JLHeng]

Hi guys! thats my milege at half tank.....looks like its on track to hit 16km per litre

Hi guys,

Just to share my experience. I just got a used sedan, almost 2yrs old,  a month ago and had gone through 3 tanks so far. Noticed that half tank able to hit 350~380km, but unable to substain on 2nd half tank. So far mileage hit 580km when sign lights up.

Cheers!

I think should also state if it is sedan, if u have zheng anything on ur car tat makes it lighter/heavier and typically how many pple in ur car when travelling and wat is the city/highway ratio travelling....

I realised tat if u consistently drive with rpm (either at cruising or move from a complete stop) at 2500 or less, u can hit 14km/l easily...but this requires a lot of patient in driving and u tempted pple to overtake at short distance to cut infront of u....so beware....

fri13th,

That is very remarkable fuel economy your Latio has.

I think it really puts the Honda Jazz to shame.

Is that mileage of 368.8km just a one-off or do you get it consistently?

Can you share with us your secrets to getting such record breaking fuel economy for Latio?
