Guest Modi Guests Posted 21/05/04 03:29 AM Share Posted 21/05/04 03:29 AM I've only done about 800km in my xr6t and I've been averaging about 13L/100kms. I haven't been babying the car so I can't believe it's so good on fuel. At the moment the car is stock and I do mostly highway driving with some spirited back road action and run BP ultimate. I was expecting 17L/100 or worse for at least the first 5000kms. No one buys a car like this and worries bout fuel economy but this is for sure a pleasant surprise.

Guest dingah Guests Posted 21/05/04 06:12 AM Share Posted 21/05/04 06:12 AM Try some intensive 'round town' work and watch your numbers change - 16 to 17 l/100km. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Modi Guests Posted 21/05/04 11:15 AM Share Posted 21/05/04 11:15 AM Scootre,I have reset the trip metre a couple of times and it always ends up close to the 13L/100. I thought maybe the gauge was bit buggered but it seems bout right for the couple of times ive put petrol in the tank. I've watched it on the setting where it shows what L/100 is being used instantly...and that's up and down like a yo yo. Not too hard to get that sucker over 50L/100 :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
