Let's see if your car is a petrol drinker anot.

 

Best is to state car make and model.

 

Sharing is caring!

 

Currently driving a Suzuki Carry 1.3 for point A to point B.

 

 

 

Mine is a early 2006 model Optra Estate Auto 1.6lit.

 

I get abt 14km/lit with abt 30% City n 70% Hway driving.

 

Car is all stock n no mods.

that one in the cashier display, i paid lesser amount after deduct UOB card, think was paying around 160.

 

I forgot the capacity i think around 90L

 

 

90Lit not much for bigger cars.

 

Mine small 1.6lit Optra.

 

Tues I pump abt 59.94 lit. $133.67 b4 discount.

 

$114.96 after discount.

 

I think its time for me to start going in to JB to pump petrol again.

 

I hope the cway jams wil end soon though.

Kia rio 1.4M. Ron 95 + 1/2bottol ntuc additive.

20% highway, 80% city , 8.5 to 9.5 depending on foot. And also driver sitting position.

Driver plus passengers already 75% of total load.

I experienced an opposite scenario.

 

Queueing to pay as pump attendant topped up my tank to full.

 

When it was my turn, Pump attendant was still pumping. I told the cashier "still pumping to full tank". Luckily, he was done within the next few seconds.

 

Cashier then said to me "Full tank. That'll be $55 after discount.

 

Priceless look as the guy behind me looked at at my Perodua Kenari as if he saw a Lamborghini.

 

 

Haha this one so true

 

I last time drove A8 pump full tank V power

 

 

Counter: which pump station sir?

Me: pump 3

Counter: sir, you topped up with v power and that will be $185

Me: pass the card handsomely though inside crying

 

Person queueing behind me check out pump 3, thought i drive bus lol

Kia rio not bad I agreed.

Got it 5 yrs old in 2012, change aircon compressor, change alternator due to gei kiang.

Else its wear n tear maintenance....

Aircon always on, be it hot or cool day.

 

With mods like risk n qfr, its very driveable.

If want acceleration like vios, I have to drag it at start, lol. Bnb car.

Always thought Hybrid was a gimmick. But from Feedback here, seems promising (with medium footwork).

 

Safe bet would be :

 

Prius C (HSD) = 27/litre ( Like a 2A 400cc Twin) Honda 400X

Insight (IMA) = 17/Litre ( Like a 2A 400cc IL4) Honda CB400 Revo

 

btw, any bro here knows how much would a replcaement of the Honda IMA cost? Eg, the owner wants to renew COE but the Honda IMA kaput.?

Seems that Toyota is winning this hybrid game

Depends on how u look at it.

 

HSD : Hybrid synergy drive - the hybrid motor plays a much larger role. Perhaps 30-40% of the total equation.

 

IMA : Integrated Motor Assist - the hybrid motor plays a much smaller role role. Perhaps 10-20% of the total equation ( this could be inline with Honda's motto of trying to maintain the status of building a "driver's car".

 

In the former, petrol heads may find the car to electronic, lack of feel.

 

In the former, petrol heads may find that the motor assist is "just enough" w/o detracting from being a "Honda".

 

So its a question of priorities & what 1 is searching for in a car. In IMA's case, understand that in the event that it totally fails, the car can still function on pure engine mode. But of course max power & torque will be lowered accdly & no more instant torque during start/stop driving. However, i believe the entire IMA system can be removed which would result in significant weight savings. Hence this option may not be as detrimental as initially thought.
