Ford Fiesta Actual Fuel Consumption

[kevo888]

Talo nga lang tayo sa Vios, but who cares the Vios is like a refrigerator anyway. Boring to look at and even more boring to drive...

That is an insult to modern ref design lol.
I would sooner drive a refrigerator than a Vios anyday
At least when you drive a ref you look interesting.

[paolorenzo]

OT: I've never seen a ref which looks like a Vios. War yan with VCP members. Marami sila. Not to mention the taxi drivers with the hoods open.

Para sa akin classic ref design is still the Suzuki APV...

Hehehe don't take these too seriously pero I do really mean it that the Vios is boring to drive... Dyan seryoso ako, especially compared to the Fiesta's lively handling...

Just around 10km/L for a car of this size? Americans neeeeeveeeer learn . I was planning to get this car for my wife but seeing the numbers right now, I guess I have to look some place else.

[tidus1203]

^^Where are you gonna look? Honda halos ganun lang din (more or less depende sa situation)... Toyota? My Yaris get 13km/L yeah its better pero do really want one? Mazda 2? Hmmm... maybe slightly better pero it lacks a lot of "civilities" of a Fiesta... You could get an Alto and you might get better FC but a Fiesta vs an Alto?? Or you could get a motorbike, 50km/L wag nga lang umulan!

Malabo ang ECOnetic dito IMO... A regular diesel perhaps pero yung ECOnetic malabo talaga given our crappy diesel... Pero grabe yung ECOnetic na yun 76.3MPG in the UK that is 32.44km/L!!!!!

I think Imperial Gallon yata computation nung 76.3 MPG sa UK. When converted to US Gallon mas mababa konti FC, Nonetheless, super efficient talaga Fiesta with econetic diesel engine.

Even the US won't get ECOnetic love...

Looks like its stuck in Europe...

[anonemus]

We are competitive with the City i-VTEC in terms of FC, but we have more power and torque than them... Talo nga lang tayo sa Vios, but who cares the Vios is like a refrigerator anyway. Boring to look at and even more boring to drive...

If the Fiesta eventually matches the Vios's reliability and parts availability, bibilib na talaga ako sa Fiesta mo tidus.

[tidus1203]

Ay Vios driver ka nga pala, as I said don't get hurt too much on what I say... I might talk like that, pero I am a nice guy hehehe!

Pero I will still take a Fiesta over a Vios (I have a Yaris which is a hatchback version of the Vios or Yaris sedan) so I think I know where I am coming from when I say that...

If it's just FC you're after, I'd suggest getting a Hyundai Accent(20+ km/L), since 10km/L city driving is probably the norm with all the gasoline subcompact cars in the market.

[tidus1203]

If we are talking about the old Accent matipid yes pero super bare talaga... The only safety feature it has is a seatbelt and that's it... You could wait for the new Accent I heard meron din daw CRDi yun, pero the price will be the hit or miss that we will all be waiting for and of course the specs...

The Civic's CVT is more economical on pure City driving compared to a DCT of the Fiesta. It's only on high speed runs where the Fiesta gains in less FC.

We also have a Civi1.8S A/T......but as far as I know hindi sya CVT......the Lancer has a CVT......

I see, my mistake, I guess only the Hybrid Civic that I was driving in the States had the CVT.

mga repapips. meron nako report for highway driving. i repeat fc ng pure highway driving. slex all the way to los banos and back to the gas station where i had my last full tank.

meter reading: 149.4km
full tank: 11.091l

fc = 13.47 km/l

average speed is 125kph kasi naglaro ako between 100kph-150kph. sarap humataw sa slex kasi andaming lanes!

Just to keep you planted on the ground, ...

My 1999 Toyota Corolla GLi 1.6L A/T achieved a fuel mileage of 13.5 km/L with nearly all highway driving at speeds between 100 to 120 kph on the NLEX/SCTEX.

haha! salamat sir ghosthunter. medyo excited lang ako kasi sa pangatlong sukat ako ng fc nakatumbok ng double digit. hehehe. excited pa nga rin hanggang ngayon.

Pareho naman silang 1.6 ng Corolla eh so ayos na din ang Fiesta atsaka mas civilized naman yung Fiesta and way more fun to drive than the lovelife Corolla so sulit na din yan...

[tidus1203]

By the way I was checking motioncars.com, was looking at the weight of the Corolla lovelife. Wow its just 1060kg for the AT, our Fiesta is even heavier at 1135kg... Grabe talaga modern cars they just get heavier and heavier as we demand more things from our car like safety and civility...

Well, we all expect to have some improvements in fuel economy especially if the cars mentioned (my Corolla & the Fiesta) have over ten years between them, not to mention the dual-clutch tranny of the fiesta versus the traditional automatic of my corolla.

[kalevala]

looking at everybody numbers, it looks like at < 5000 kms:

City: 8-10km/li
HIghyway: 13-14km /li

let's see how much this improves over the next few months
