    Thanks for your replies. Atleast all the answers from the owners are nearly 10km/l mark. Curious lang ako kasi baka same lang sila ng fuel consumption ng forester 2.0 since they both have tghe same engine displacement. i read that the 2.0 forester is only doing 5 to.6 km/l in city.

    forester is bigger and heavier. you need to push engine more to make it go. unlike an XV thats smaller and lighter.

    its also the reason that swayed me away from the forester 2.0 and went with xv instead.

    when i used it going to san juan batangas, my fuel consumption was 7.7 liters of fuel per 100 KMS (12.98KMS/liter of fuel)


    for a 2.0 engine, XV is economical. mas malakas pa nga uminom ng fuel yung 1.6 accent ng wife ko eh.

    You get 10 km/L because you pass the Skyway. That's more of mixed driving than what is generally considered as pure city driving. No doubt, the XV can reach those figures when mixed with highway driving. Also, have you tried manually computing your FC? You should try it at least once to gauge if your MID's reading is more or less accurate, or is wildly off the mark.

    I'm pretty sure that the conditions where Forester owners get 5-6 km/L aren't the same as where the XV gets 10 km/L.

    The Forester 2.0 weighs 1485 kg, the XV weighs 1430 kg. 50 kg won't make a huge difference in FC.

    That said, I'm pretty sure that the XV still gets better FC than the Forester, because it's got CVT. In the case of the Altis 2.0, changing from the 4-AT to the CVT gives gains of over 1 km/L in the same city driving conditions.

    But 6 km/L vs 10 km/L? BS.
