Tsaka paano mo masasabing matakaw sa gas yung Sportage Theta e wala ka naman ganun. Lahat naman ng CUV na gasulina talagang nasa 7km/L average lang yan. Yung Sportage namin 7.8km/L na average ngayon. May iba nagrereklamo nasa 6km/L parin daw sila, ewan ko kung ano meron.

Maski Tucson CRDi ko kaya mag 6.5km/L sa city driving ha
Haha~ Kung tama naalala ko ikaw nga isa sa nagsabi na matakaw eh. 4-5km/L ba yun when climbing Kennon Road with the Tucson Club?

Ang tipid naman ng Sportage niyo ah. Rush hour city driving, o may kasamang highway?

Yung mga nakakakuha ng 6km/L siguro yung mga rush hour lagi lumalabas and/or maikli lang ang rota. Under such circumstances kahit yung Revo namin na, bukod sa SF VGT, ang pinakamatipid na kotse sa bahay namin nakakakuha ng around 7km/L lamang.

Dun naman sa Tucson CRDi, yan ang maganda sa pagiging diesel eh. Kahit na 6.5km/L ang konsumo niyan.
6.5km/L / P41/L (diesel) = X km/L / P52/L (unleaded)
6.5(52) = 41X
X - 8.24km/L
Therefore, money spent on diesel fuel consumed * 6.5km/L is equivalent to money spent on unleaded gasoline consumed * 8.24km/L.

Anyway, back to the topic. If power is a major concern, most 2.0L gasoline CUVs would not satisfy the TS what with their heavy bodies and lack of torque. If the R20 CRV, even in manual form, is considered slow, then the 2.0L X-Trail wouldn't be much better.
