    AT picanto has FC issues, cant get more than 8 city. Read the comments in the review posted in the earlier post (the bigoatee) and the unbox site. The comments from owners are scary. Kia SA will say madalang na ang AT version and nandyan naman kasi ang Rio. But the truth i would suppose is that they pulled it out of the market since it never reached its claimed FC promise, not even half of it. The FC is based on Kia's own Fuel Efficieny Testing machine.

    I have an office mate with the MT version. Ok naman daw pero hirap siyang umakyat sa Baguio. FC ok naman daw but he has plans of getting it tested also. I was also planning to get this until I saw the comments in the blogs. i10 is cheaper and seems to give better FC, budget permitting get a Jazz or Fiesta.

    Anyone considered the 2012 mirage? although since bagong labas, wala pa actual FC ratings...i'm still waiting...meron din thread dito on that. lahat nag aabang ng FC ng mirage...test drove it maganda naman ang ride...has enough torque yet smooth na smooth...CVT kasi...so we're hoping na maganda FC niya. just another option in case you want to take a look at it. na test drive ko na rin yung spark (MT and AT), kulang na kulang sa power...but i read in some reviews umaabot ng 17km/L ang FC. hehe...

    ok naman ang spark, malakas din hatak, depende lang siguro sa kargang gasolina ng test drive, pagkalabas kanina blaze agad ang pinakarga ko, sobrang smooth ang ride at malakas ang hatak, dapat mirage din nakuha ko kahapon pero nung inispect ko na-turned off ako sobra, sobrang plastic yung loob at ramdam ko agad ang sobrang pagkakatipid sa materials na ginamit, even sa mga doors turned off din ako dahil hirap ng isara ng lapat, kailangan pa ng pressure para maisara. ang layo sa built quality ng spark at picanto, maganda din ang hatak ng picanto kaya lang hindi ko pinili kasi daming bad reviews sa fuel consumption.

    So far we only have the factory claimed FC for the MIRAGE 1.2L which is 21km/L.

    True...i've been waiting sa thread dito about sa mga kumuha na ng mirage...ang worst na nagpost is 9 km/L and ang best is 23 km/L (both M/T). sa GLS CVT naman nasa 12-16 km/L so far (if i remember correctly...dami kasing i-baback read). Still checking if it will get better.
