Baal Supersonic September 18, 2014 Share September 18, 2014 hi guys...i'm comparing the 2014 Mazda 3 with the 2014 KIA K3. any insights on the avg FC assuming easy driving 60% highway / 40% city driving? What is the actual avg for drivers here? i have a friend who drives a K3 conservatively yet he got about 12km/ltr despite it being new. thank you so much in advance! So long as the K3 can safely return at least 10km per L under 70 city / 30 highway, i will take K3. Mz3 seems too complex & sophisticated for my liking. I would imagine that I would be held hostage by the AD in more ways than 1... 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the same bid like yours and same commit delivery period by SE. But to be honest, not even KIA factory can guarantee the delivery period. What SE indicate is just "likely" to be delivered... lol.. Happy waiting. Maybe both of us will receive the car same period :) EDIT: sorry, sorry... mine is 2nd July bid. Wait too long until blur...

What is the actual avg for drivers here? i have a friend who drives a K3 conservatively yet he got about 12km/ltr despite it being new. thank you so much in advance! I don't drive neither, but I've been stalking the 2 threads quite consistently.. from what i gather, K3 is around 11-13km/l and Mazda 3 is around 12-14km/l. can be slightly higher or lower, but around there.

Hope this is better, one of my friend change to this, for the price and specs I think good. My friend's Forte 5 years still good. Probably he took good care of it. I have to agree Toyota car is good indeed. My 9 years plus Vios still going strong. Looking forward for my K3 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
