    28-31 highway, probably 22-27 city. 2S-E economy FTW. And that's all that motor is good for.

    roughly 1km/l = 2.35214 mpg I just pit in 14.4 L yesterday and have gotten 60+km so far, neddle started at half tank and its moved just a little to the left. Im expecting it to last to 180 km, thats about 29.5 mpg. and after that it will be the 4th time ive calculed my my millage, i think i need to stop cuz i speend half my time watching my guage :p

    Note: I dont drive hard at all, i get passed by most people under accelleration and drive at about 80km/h, no highway, probaby 4 stops every 20km's

    ya u cant do it like that

    fill your tank

    drive til like 3/4s and fill it up

    see how far you went(use the trippo when u fill up) and the exact liters you put in and calc it from there, gauge is not the way to do it

    I emptied my tank until the Gas light came on...I put in $20, apprx 20 L, with gas prices.

    I drove 200 kilometers.

    My gas light came on again.

    So, 200km, 20L, = 10km / L = 23.5 MP/G

    And I always accelerate faster than the person beside me (If I can) and usually when there's no one beside me, I like to floor it like a race car driver because I'm an idiot!

    But yeah....23.5! woo
