    What's the conservative fuel consumption of automatic cars from model 93 e.g. toyota gli, lancer glxi, mazda glxi to 99 like the honda civic and its counterparts? Im talking about the 1.6 sedans. Is 7-8 km/L acceptable in city driving? And 10-11 for long driving?

    I have a 1995 Lancer and I regularly get 7-7.5 pure city driving. Route is San Juan to Fort Bonifacio via Mandaluyong and Makati. Highest mileage I got was around 9 because of a late night run up Tagaytay one weekend. I haven't tried checking my mileage on pure highway runs.

    Early 90's automatics have very poor fuel economy. Siguro mga 6-7km/l nga for a 1.6 tapos long drive less than 10km/l. Sobra kasing hindi efficient mag shift yung mga old automatics eh kailangan bitawan mo pa yung gas pedal para mag shift sya.

    Old Sedans have typically high Fuel Consumption. For as long as the engines still in good condition, An option would be to retrofit it with an LPG System so as to save on Fuel Costs.

    ang lakas pala sa gas ng old AT 1.6 sedans. parang consumption na rin ng 2.0++ MT cars like '97 Accord.
