Usual fuel consumption of a gen1 honda crv

**lm723** · May 26th, 2012 11:25 PM

I am aiming a used but in good condition crv, I know the owner.

Its a 1998 honda crv, gen1 - 4x4, automatic

I just would like to know the usual fuel consumption, especially if you drive one.

Does the manual and automatic models have huge difference?

And whats the usual issue I should be checking if ever?

Thank you so much!

Mine does 6 km to 7 km on city driving, thing to look out for is the transmission especially if matic, see if the shifting is smooth and no sudden or violent jerks when it shifts.

City 5-6 kms / liter
Highway 11-12 kms / liter

Average fuel consumption is around 9-10 km/L. My CRV 98 (automatic transmission) can still run at 160kph or more. However, I seldom do it.

I recently purchased a Mazda 6 diesel so I'm selling this CRV 98. My brother won't take this vehicle because he is a fan of diesel engines.

My estimate is that for city driving would be around 6-8 km/L and highway driving could be 10-11 km/L. I have faithfully recorded my kilometer reading and the number of liters to full tank capacity. Very seldom that I would have an average of 11 km/L.
