The best milage per litre is foound in driving style.PERIOD.

The Toyota Prius does over 51MPG and the Hyundai Accent does 40MPG. That's approximately 21km/litre and 17km/litre respectively.

toyota vitz 1300cc (1.3U), 18km/L

i filled the tank completely i.e till the level where its touches the fuel tank lid when you put back the lid, the tank holds 40liters then set my trip meter. I later filled the tank again after 618kms, i needed 31.8 liters to fill the tank meaning i had covered 618kms using 31.8 liters. Good mileage depends on your driving style. Avoid speeds above 88km/h unless overtaking, avoid unnecessary use of brakes e.g if you can see corner far ahead, its better to step off the accelerator than wait till you reach the corner and apply the breaks

did Kisumu and back (roughly 700kms) plus an extra say 160km on a full tank (60lts) with an Allion even after doing high speeds all thro. 120kmph plus

1000cc platz does an average of 16km/l

Did 1,250km over x-mas in a 1998, 1496cc-Mazda Familia (that I have had since 2003). Consumed a total of 109L. That comes to 11.47km/L

I used to think that it consumes too much; but now looking at the ACTUAL figures listed here, I think it is pretty good, given its age and that it's a 4WD version.

Talking about driving styles; you can force an auto trans car to shift upwards earlier by "pumping" the accelerator.

Drive barefoot or with your big toe and get 116mpg or 50km/l...

... well, not exactly.

Better still, take lessons from this Kibe Kamunyu guy who drove a 2,000cc Alfa Romeo 156 from Westlands to Naivasha on only 1.75L of fuel... 48km/L!!!

He should start an Efficient Driving School...

The article does not say how to do this!

@Injere

I also wonder why the Asian community love the car.. but if you see a gujarati liking one then there must be a reason why? here are my zim million worth of thoughts..
1. They are not your common hype motorgaris.. read Toyotas there for not a common target for Grogan/Kirinyaga spare parts market.

2. You probably get genuine spare parts 90% of the time. Thus with good servicing they are quite reliable over the years.. mine is 14yrs old and looks much better than most KB somethings..

3. they do consume more compared to Toyota.. but hey the Subarus and German cars are similar if not worse guzzlers

but now they have started becoming too many as well i fear mine could just be as much a target..

and why do you call them 'passanger cars'?
