    I had the same experience with our Ford Fiesta Ecoboost. I'm only getting 6km/L and that's mixed city and hiway driving. Now after the 1Tkm mark I'm getting 9-10km/L mixed also. Basta hindi ko ilalagpas ng 3k rpm kase doon gagana ang turbo ng ecoboost yun daw malakas gas saka 60-80kph lang speed ko. Hehe! Try mo Total Excellium or Seaoil 95/97 or PTT okay din kase meron samin. Okay naman performance nila.

    Practice your own eco-driving rather than rely on your computer when to shift. Try doing these:

    - Get to the highest gear as soon as possible, at the lowest rev the car can muster. Downshift as necessary but upshift as soon as you can. Feel the car, the computer can't do that for you.

    - Steady as she goes. Stick to ideal speed, don't oscillate. Those mm pedal adjustments cost you additional injected fuel with no gain

    - monitor your tire pressure, set at the highest recommended as you can tolerate. The less rolling resistance, the better. Bouncier, but thrifty

    - Your brake pedal robs you of distance. Practice engine braking before stoplights, gentle pedaling to stop the car. A jerking stop is the same as jack rabbit start, waste of motion

    - Fill her up during the colder times of the day. Fuel expands a bit when hot, you lose some mass at high fuel temps.

    - Set acu temp to 'comfortable' not 'arctic'. If you can take it, use natural ventilation instead.

    - practice good housekeeping. Dead weight adds to fuel use.

    - Finally, avoid traffic as best you can. You should check online apps to plan your route better. As always, the earlier the better.

    TS,

    First of all, you're still into your break in period. TALAGANG MALAKAS YNG FUEL CONSUMPTION MO DURING THAT STAGE. Like what the other forumers have stated, only after this period will the real fuel efficiency of the vehicle reveal itself.

    IMHO, mas maganda magtest ng fuel efficiency during long drives. Kasi yng speed variable kahit paano eh constant. City driving will all be an average of your day-to-day driving experience along the same route. You may cover the same distance in the same amount of time. But that may not mean that the no. of times you stopped and stepped on the gas will be the same everyday. Eg. Today you complete your route in 30 mins from point A to point B. Tomorrow, you may complete the same route in the same time but you had to spend 10 more minutes in idle because of some traffic obstruction 10 meters from point A. After that, smooth sailing to point B.

    Just my 3 cents

    sabi ni dealer,ang 20kp/l is kung long straight road.makukuha mo sya nang 20kp/l..pero kung city driver mga nasa 15kp/l.

    That's the problem when you have people measuring FC in a very inaccurate manner.

    Oo nga, nagtataka ako how can he measure km/L with half tank. Baka nag base lang sa Number of bars, which is very inaccurate. Unless merong km/L reading ang eon, which I doubt.

    Mahirap yun. Mas ok talaga yung full tank.

    Pansin ko lang sa EON malakas din siya sa gas pag naka on lang ang engine then hindi tumatakbo. Nung na traffic kami ng todo nung apec week. Almost naka 9kmL lang ako. Almost 2 to 3hrs ata kami na naka hinto.

    If you're sitting still for 3 hours...

    During ultra-heavy Christmas traffic, even 1.0 to 1.2 liter cars get 6-7 km/l (or even lower), so 9 km/l from running the AC for three hours is already pretty good.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    Hehe... sometimes, when the traffic is terrible, I simply stop at the nearest gas station and have a good long drink (softdrink)... imbis na maubos ang pera sa gas, pahinga muna sa libreng aircon na kasama sa inumin.

    Hindi ko pa nagawa yan. Pag napasok na, wala ng atrasan.
    Kaya sa eon pag matagal tagal na hintayan, patay engine na. Para tipid. Yun nga lang pag kasama ko bulilit ko papa buksan talaga aircon.
