Stats on Fuel Consumption for Skoda cars

[Kahlid]

Hi - I am trying to compile and share the average fuel consumptions for all the Skoda owners. Do complete the following list

 

Car Type/Average consumption/city vs highway/stock vs mod, e.g.

 

1. Octavia 1.6/11.5km per litre/50:50/stock

[Moeykf]

mine is 1.6A/full tank 450-500/50:50/fully stock

[Virus]

Brudder, not accurate lah, nobody can drive until empty tank then top-up.

 

1. Kadlid - Octavia 1.6/11.5km per litre/50:50/stock

2) Moeykf - Octavia 1.6A/full tank 450-500/50:50/fully stock

3) Virus - Octavia 1.6A, 10.5km/l, Broquet, Magfuel, K&N, 17"

1. Kadlid - Octavia 1.6/11.5km per litre/50:50/stock

2) Moeykf - Octavia 1.6A/full tank 450-500/50:50/fully stock

3) Virus - Octavia 1.6A, 10.5km/l, Broquet, Magfuel, K&N, 17"

4) Volk74 - Octavia 1.6A, ~9.5km/l (470-510km per tank), Green drop-in

 

A few times, I really drive only the computer shows 0km and the needle is on the Empty line...Managed to pump in 53.6l...so I guess left 1+litre in tank...

 

Kadlid - You are a new Octy driver???

[Kahlid]

Volk74 - not yet but contemplating to get one and wanted to understand more in terms of the fuel consumption. I heard that the Octy is a petrol drinker, just like my Sunny today.

What does your rpm show when the car is crusing at 90KM/h?

[XLR8]

Cruising at 90km/h is at 2750rpm.

[XLR8]

I wouldnt called the Octy a drinker like the sunny cos the octy is much heavier than the sunny. Ride comfort and handling vs the sunny, need I say more. So if you can achieve around 10-11km per litre is considered very good liao for a 1.3ton tank!!

2750rpm... is this auto or manual?

isn't it quite high?

 

i've read the new Octy techical spec and the FC for the FSI is just 6% better. not alot hor?

[Fluffy]

the FC for FSI that is 6% is it based on the low sulphur fuel or the one we have locally which is high sulphur?

[XLR8]

Slightly. Its for auto. Cos the Octavia auto has a close gear ratio.

[Orablue]

6% is based on U.K. review and Skoda U.K. technical broucher.... not sure about local fuel though.

If it is really only 6%, how to justify the additional cost of the FSI model based on FC alone? How many drivers actually make full use of all (max) the horse power generated by the engine?
