^ I guess the low FC figures before launch was a marketing hype...?

Thanks for the compilation... Clearly we can see that in general I say the FC in the city is not the best in class, but its competitive only... In highway though, its actually pretty good if not the best...

I don't think so. Take note of kalevala's figures and then factor in our "young" units plus traffic conditions locally.

In my case, I live in a rural residence going towards the city. People consider barangay roads as private roads and profusely install humps as they please

. This is worse than heavy traffic. At least heavy traffic sometimes eases up. These humps stay put.

I can't really blame them for fear of their kids playing in the roads plus abusive "moped" drivers who throttle like there is no tomorrow.

I just enrolled in LIVE WITH IT 101. I think it is a nice subject to be enrolled in, doncha think mga ka-Fiesters? Doncha...doncha...doncha...

This is what I've been getting for my 8 month old 1.5 GE Jazz. Just got my 1.4 Fiesta MT hatch 3 weeks ago and will start measuring consumption after the first month service/checkup. Hopefully, it will at least match my Jazz' consumption.

I am getting 14km/L, and I have yet to go anywhere near 100km/h. Mostly driving around 40-80km/h on provincial Cavite roads. I would estimate that 15 or 16km/L is achievable on the expressways. After I reach 1000km, I will give it a shot
