ok..went to do some grocery

 

finally the refuel indicator lighted up !!!!!

went to top up Shell 92 again.

 

Distance travelled : 583 km

Amt of petrol pumped in : 45.7 litres !!!

Mileage : 12.75 km/l

 

I left it to the attendant to fuel up the tank...he probably stop with the first click..

But 45.7 vs the tank capacity of 60 l...it similar to my former civic where the refuel indicator light up with ard 10 ~15 litres to spare..

 

Btw my ride is manual.

If the reading and no additional top up since collecting the car then FC is V Good. [thumbsup]

To minimise error, I think u shd take another reading to be sure.

one of the reason I feel why Optra's consumption is higher is due to its torquey engine..

notice tat the rpm at 100km/h is close to 3000 rpm !! compare to my previous EK3 which is ard 2500 for 100 km/h ...

 

for the optra at 2000 rpm, the speed is only 80 km/h.....such figures for 80 and 100km/h are similar to conti cars like SAAB and Bora. The rpm for such car at 100km/h is > 3000 rpm,,,powerful when going up slope...but the fuel will also be consumed much faster.

Turbocharged

dude..u are kidding me!! Which Optra are you driving? manual, auto or Optra-5??

 

For 100km/h, my auto optra is only at 2200-2300 rpm. At the highest gear of course.

 

at 3000 rpm, my car would be close to 125km/h.
