    Like any car, fc from a stop will be very poor & more noticeable in the morning due to the computer feeding more fuel to the engine to heat it up & more fuel to get the car moving & getting up to speed. Fuel efficiency will definitely suffer in short trips & in stop & go situations. Better consumption will be realized when the car is driven for a longer distance & time.

    If you can buy a gas-fed vehicle worth 2M or more, paying for gas should not much be of a concern for you. You have the means to buy, maintain, and operate the vehicle so I doubt you will cheap out on fuel expense. Hehehehe

    Very true, but even so, some larger petrol 6s & 8s can only do 3-4km/L city....half of what most would consider average.

    If I buy an Explorer or Expedition or F150 or CX9 or Pilot, I won’t complain about its appetite for fuel. I bought it ‘coz it satisfied my need for a certain of vehicle that I won’t get for something more affordable.

    CX9s are not known for it’s good resale value, as I know of. My sister has a CX 9 she’s been trying to sell for a few years now w/no takers. It has a bad rap for it’s poor fc. I would presume people who’d buy 2nd hand ones know this & got it cheap will convert it to LPG units. Brand new unit owners will never do this to their CX9. Dba image is everything?

    Not only midsize SUVs, even CUVs with gas engines with displacements over 2.0L. Most Pinoys are allergic to gas engines bigger than 1.6L.

    The current CX9 has a 4cyl 2.5L pure Mazda Skyactiv turbo engine w/ more torque & better efficiency than the 3.7L V6 its predecessor had. Same badge, 2 totally different cars.
