Nakita ko rin sa Trinoma, advertisement banner nila 'ron, rated at 15.66 Km/L ang mga Rio natin according to Dept. of Energy. Nice one.

17km/L? Wow! Mataas ito. Is it city or highway? I just filled up yesterday and I have less than 9km/L. The best was when I used Phoenix Unleaded (w/out Ethanol) at around 9.8 km/L. Odo at just around 1200km.

I would say combined city and highway, but mostly highway since I always make sure to avoid traffic. I started out about just that max 11km/L when I was just around 1200. Iba siguro nagagawa ng break-in

.

I would join the Rio Club. Set-up natin yan

For highway driving ano yung optimal RPM and speed for the Rio?

So it is possible pala to get a high fuel mileage. I was already missing my vios which gets me 11.5km/l city driving. What brand and type of fuel do you use?

Yes you could, but you won't be able to beat the frugality of the Vios. Maybe 10km/l max for city driving is the best figure. Di ko pa nareach yang figure na yan the most I got as of now is 8-9 km/l short drives lang kasi palagi (I heard that max fuel efficiency is only reached if you travel for longer periods). Yung 17 km/l naman I only got for pure highway drive when I went up to Pampanga.

Yeah, yet to reach 10km/l dito sa Rio but it's a fun drive. Di ko pa rin nadadala sa nlex or slex. Before my last full tank kasi medyo mataas ang revving ko kaya bumagsak below 9kpl, sinusubukan ko yung arangkada ng kotse. Kanina from my house I revved up to 5K rpm at 1st gear. Masama gising ko dahil kay basyang.
