[Damnjian]

Seems like only the exterior have some changes as compared to the previous model but standard rims now comes in 16" as compared to 15" earlier

 

Gear shift is said to be much smoother

 

Power & other technical stuff remains the same

[Damnjian]

and FC is still equally

[Mzrmazda3]

Duuno leh

 

Heard they say new model is slightly better is consumption but dunno how true

[Damnjian]

yah...very slightly better but very insignificant

[Deathsythe]

U seems to know quite a lot abt the MAzda 3SP. How's much is the fuel consumption?

[Damnjian]

dunno much...SE said 11km/L...but from the infor I gathered,avg 9-10km/L...any m3 sp owners out there would like to share?

Hi,

 

I am getting between 10-12km/l on my SP20, 30% highway 70% city driving. From other SP drivers, some can get as high as 14km/l on their SP.

[Mzrmazda3]

14km/l???

 

So good???

 

Me only manage best at 12.9km/l given that mine is on 17", ICE & modded

Those stats i read from the Mazda forum, but i think stock car and smaller wheels, 16" or 15" kind will give better FC...

 

my stock car can sometimes hit 12km/l i am sure yours can better.

[Ahyoo2002]

Wah,

 

That is very good liao, to me

You are definately right Bro

[Mzrmazda3]

Yup Bro

 

Actually, i'm very happy with my FC liao given my mods, 17" rims & a heavy chassis

 

The worst FC i had is 9.8km/l at the time of running in

 

Now mileage at 45K +++ liao

 

However, there are still a number of people saying Mz3 is a fuel drinker

 

To each of his own lah cos maybe i'm running 80% Highway 20% City

[Billyteng]

Actually the fuel drinking part is not that true lah... My family's Hyundai Matrix then is a real petrol drinker...

 

My mileage now only 2k+ i hope it will be even better by the time it is the same as your mileage. Furthermore, mine is 30% Highway 70% City...

[Mzrmazda3]

After changing to synthetic and running in, your fuel consumption should improve

[Veryfree]

nice consideration at 60k. good handling, sporty look, a little feel of

ford focus. who say FC is bad? those who say may be either driving a

toyota or lightweight cars. two thumbs up.

Cons : there are many jealous sedan drivers on the road.
