Recommended Posts

from your answer, it's high , my current ride can fetch 580-500 approx, so I am really doing my research, the point is I had drove a LPT years back, sold it less than a month, due to high consumption,

 

Im eyeing 9.3 Aero TS, only two cars I have narrow down. PLs advise further on parts availability.

 

2.3L turbocharged car.... don't think the car is for you if you are adverse to high FC

Turbocharged

Im getting avg abt 540km for my full tank of petrol till the low petrol light turned on.

 

That is damn good even for a 2.3L turbo engine

So 9km/L is light footed?

Tot saab got big tank?

hehe i can't remember if 55 or 60litre actually. for long time i never let my think hit the empty level level.

 

but i work backwards i usually pump about $110 fuel (before discount) for about mileage of about 450-480km

 

me about 9.3km/l le........i think i am slightly more towards the heavy footed.

erh i already said i more towards the heavy footed liao. proof is there when i compare the fuel consumption when driving my prevous ford focus and friend's vios. i consistently clocked higher than most people driving the same car. oh yes but my highway mileage is probably high. about 60% highway mileage

 

real light footed is SGCMsmallcar. he does about 10+ km/litres.

That will voice down to driving style bro. My previous ride also the same. My friend dun believe i can get 580km for full tank on a honda stream with 17inch rims. We exchange car for 1 week and I showed him his car can do it. And when he drive my ride he gets onlt less than 500km per tank. haha. Smooth n steady is the way. When you see far red light no need to chiong n jam brake there. Waste petrol n brake pad.
