New Vios 1.5G Mileage

[josefarrugia]

Hey Guys,

My family just got a new Vios 1.5G 2010 model and I noticed that the mileage (KM/L) is roughly about 6.3KM/L. Is that normal in city driving? I drive between 15-30KM/h. Any thoughts or suggestions?

FC will improve after 5-10 t kms

How did you arrive at that figure? Did you compute it manually after fueling up or you got it from the trip computer ?

What kind of traffic condition do you drive? bumper to bumper? What's your daily route?

^^ Same answer with jaymd.

But I think, the FC of the vehicle is pretty low. It should just play around i think 7-8km/l. Then upon reaching 5k kms. Mga 10-12km/l na yan.

Driving habits and traffic conditions affect FC too.

The Vios 1.5G comes with a computerized system which automatically calculates the mileage.

And it's usually bumper to bumper since I leave College during rush hour (5PM-6PM). And I drive in Metro Cebu.

I traveled a total distance of about 160KM. I guess I have a long way to go before I start noticing the improvement in the FC. ;)

Tiis muna. Pagkatapos, okay na yan.

Break in period pa iyan at masikip pa mga piston . Gamitin mo lang ng gamitin at sundin mo ang break in period speed.

i got a question, you say that you are driving around 15-30KM/h, your rpm that time?

Roughly about 2-3, if I'm not mistaken.
