    Hard to say, as those figures were all taken at different times in different conditions. In fact, the Honda Jazz and Honda City in those runs are likely the previous generation GD-chassis CVT ones, not the current 5AT models.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    The Celerio is fuel efficent but the numbers are DOE's idea of real world fuel economy figures which are unachievable in normal driving conditions unless you normally drive along the expressways with traffic sweepers ahead of you.

    [SIZE=3]Basta diesel engines and whether it be 2.5-litre or 3.0-litre, simula't-sapol, maaasahan talaga ang mga Isuzu's.... Pinaka-matitipid at pinaka-matitibay na makina [/SIZE]

    Isuzu D-Max 4×2 pickup (manual 2.5L diesel) — 20.57 km/L; you spend just P2.24 per km

    Isuzu Alterra 4×2 full-size SUV (manual 3.0L diesel) — 19.44 km/L; you spend just P2.37 per km

    It is a factor of speed increases friction and resistance and requires more energy to overcome. Driving slowly is slightly less fuel efficient than driving at a constant speed of 55 or 60, but at a slow speed the wind friction is reduced and the fuel economy is less affected. It also matters if you are driving into the wind or if the wind is behind you and 'pushing' the vehicle.

    Does this mean that during traffic your fuel efficiency is affected because you tend to drive slowly and erratically?
