One time driving on our way up to cairns from townsville, I noticed that my Fuel efficiency improved to 4.9L/100km I was quite happy till I realised for the better part of 10km we were driving downhill, hahaha, but still fill it up and can get over 800km on the highway and about 600 around town, so yeh its great on fuel.

2l TDCI - Average real figure fuel consumption over the life of 79,000kms

5.3/100kms

Lowest is 5.0, Highest is 6.0.

These figures are based on 90 Fills (not all full) between 26/9/2007 and 23/1/2009.

Please also note that there about 4-5 fills missing from the initial receiving of the car to when the log was started.

2.0L Auto

100km per 10L. Work it out yourselves

That includes me flogging it at every set of lights, every corner and every bend. So it's quite an economical car.
