    the 1.3 is not that fuel efficient. the body is so heavy that it is underpowered by the 1.3 engine.
    i think it averages around 9 kpl lang.

    ^Agree...

    This car is really under powered...

    Better get the manual and try to use stock tires...

    Bright side is that it has really good AC

    "underpowered is subjective", in my opinion.
    the way i drive, it'd probably be "adequate". i drive like a grandfather.
    9 kpl isn't really bad. and see how big your car is, compared to today's fuel-sipping mini cars.. i used to have a 90s sentra that gave me 9 kpl. today, i have a wigo. the sentra is more comfortable on the road.
    and the best part... it ain't too expensive to buy and maintain.
    most ATs consume more gas then their MT counterparts. ATs also require more maintenance.
