Hi,

How is a 2.0 Escape's fuel efficiency?

Thanks!

[kiper]

city driving - 5-6 km/L
hiway driving - 7-8 km/L

But I now manage to make a 6.5 km/L on city driving..A manual transmission will do better by 1-2 km/L.

[pepengtom]

gas-bilis ang escape ni kiper noh?

[wombat]

Ako after 3full tanks i averaged 4.7km/liter city driving XLS A/T ung sa akin just passed 1000kms sa odometer ko.

Will my mileage improve? What else can I do to achieve at least 6-7 kms/liter city driving. Need some inputs guys. Thanks

[pepengtom]

hhmmmm..... sa tingin ko, mataas masyado yan para sa XLS A/T mo, break-in period pa lang yan. hindi pa naman accurate ang mileage mo, hintayin mong tumaas ang ODO mo.

sa rav4 sv ko ngayon, break-in pa lang. 13km/L hiway.

for the first 5,000 kms you'll never get an accurate computation of your fuel mileage..wait after the first chang-oil to do so.

wombat..your figures will definitely improve, just be sure you don't wreck your engine on its break-in period.

Care to expound on this? From personal experience, what you get is what you get.

If we're talking about parts setting in, there's always a chance that fuel economy would worsen as much as it'll improve Either way, the difference is hardlu felt.

pepeng tom, kiper

that's what I'm thinking since it's still in the breaking-in period,
baka mas malakas consumption. hopefully mag-improve.

mas matipid pa ung 2.8 pajero ko nasa 6-7km/li. city. Ung 2.0 mit adv. M/T namin nag average ako 7-7.5 km/li even during break-in

guys, would K&n filter/grounding kits improve fuel economy? thanks

[pajerokid]

wombat, it should pero max na siguro 0.5km/L ang improvement.

[pepengtom]

wombat, break-in pa lang ng rav4 sv ko. pero umaabot ako ng 9-10km/L city. 13km/L hiway.

not sure kung accurate yan, pero based yan sa break-in period. magbabago pa naman siguro yan kapag tapos na mabreak-in.

Driving habit is still a factor.

It's indicated in the Ford Escape manual. Before having the 1st PMS, I got an average of 4-5 kms per Liter only. Now I have atleast 5-6.5 kms per liter on city driving.

[pajerokid]

wow! laki ng difference ah!

Wow mas matipid pala yung RAV4, ok talaga yung vvti technology

[wombat]

oh well, thanks mga peeps sa inputs. I guess I'll just have to wait few more thousand kms. to see if my mileage improves.

[Monseratto]

isn't the 2.0l escape engine known to be gas-guzzling, underpowered and rather antiquated? Mazdas aren't known for being fuel efficient compared to Honda VTEC or Toyota VVTI. Also the horror stories about the MT transmission Escape make you think twice about owning one.

[kiper]

The RAV SV uses a manual transmission, got a smaller engine, smaller over-all size and lighter weight. My escape is all of the opposite..kaya mas matipid talaga ang RAV.

I've also installed K&N finer filters.

Escapes equipped with manual transmission has a clutch problem..too bad.

[ingwid]

My 4x4 RAV averages 9kms/litre. Break-in period pa.

[mazdamazda]

baka naman mas better matched ang 2.3L engine sa escape rather than the 2.0L?

baka naman hirap yung 2.0L kaya ganun...

[kiper]

mejo.
