Hi T4 Owners,

 

Just want to get an idea of what you folks are getting in terms of fuel consumption. These are my figures :

 

City Driving - 12.4 l/100km [thumbsdown]

Long Distance - 8.8 l/100km [thumbsup]

Mixed - 9.9 l/100km [:/]

 

regards

your guys are doing extremely fine: with the T4's lightning performance, yet can get such good fuel consumption figures [thumbsup][thumbsup]

 

(in comparison, my Airtrek runs about the same speed, eg similar 0-100 timing, yet it gives me only 7.4-8.4 km/L.......i wanna cry [bigcry][bigcry][bigcry] )

Bro, ours only 1250kg compared to 1500kg for yours. The 250kg diff is like having extra 3-4 adults in the car, so your economy considered reasonable liao.

The best way is to fill up to full tank (reset your trip meter at the same time) and drive till the next time you refill. Take note of the no. of litres needed for the second refill to full tank. This is the amount of fuel you used. Divide the distance indicated on the trip meter by the no. of litres and this will give you your fuel consumption in km/L.

Hi Guys,

 

Im surprised at the number of T4 forummers..guess T4s are really good bang for bucks...

 

Im surprised at the very good fuel consumption too..no worse than a NA 2-litre..great! Mines a Citroen Xantia 3.0, doing average of 7.5km/l in mixed driving, worse of 6.9 and best of 9.9 in Malaysia. Mind you..I used to drive a 1989 Lancia Thema 16V Turbo and that gave an eye-watering 6.5km/l in mixed driving...can't even reach KL with one tank...sob

 

Cheers!

Hi Jman,

 

To add on to what Yttrium has mentioned, I usually top up to full tank when I hit 1/4 tank... some people will do so when their 'empty' light blinks...On your petrol station receipt...it will state the type of petrol pumped [eg. Super98], the price per litre [eg. $1.345], how many litres you pumped and how much you paid for it.

 

All you need to do is to write down the distance you travelled onto your receipt and when you get home, you can just transfer those figures into your PC [excel spreadsheet] for the calculations. Remember to reset your trip computer for the next reading whenever you top up to full tank. nod.gif

 

Basically:

 

- Distance Travelled/Volume Pumped = km/litre

Hi Toeknee

Yeah, more T4s are appearing in MCF [thumbsup] . Quite a good bang for the buck. The fuel consumption was a bit of a surprise to me too. Was only expecting maybe 8km/l in normal driving but so far so good. The car can reach KL in just slightly over half a tank.

 

Thema turbo huh? Must've been quite a stormer. [thumbsup]
