Downside, terrible on mud and Guzzler. how many Kpl? The best i have recorded is 10-12kpl on a highway drive. On slow traffic as poor as 6kpl. Prefers to use on long distances but on short distances nope. Thanks. Reason for my interest in kpl is that my 1998 CRV does 8.4 kpl. The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

The premio will return around 15km per litre town drive and as high as 22km per litre in highway driving depending on your driving.The 1800cc 2wd uses the Dual VVTI engine thats runs on double camshaft the power is great too. The subaru 2000cc AWD will have no fuel economy to talk of its heavier meaning u will trend at 8-10km per litre town use and a maximum of 14kpl highway

In the absence of professional analysis, based on kenyan roads, all these comparisons are a matter of perception/preference. Not too long ago we were told to keep off the discovery coz it was prone to rolling!!! Then it was the prado....confusing???
Prados have the wrong suspension settings for a luxury car and they are too narrow for a car that tall. Get a test drive and try to do 100 on a highway if you want to know how unstable this car is. Or better yet talk to the sales guys at Toyota Kenya, they dont recommend Prados to their clients. You advise is so herds boy chief  How do you mean that Toyota Kenya sales people do not recommend Prados. Eish!! I have driven prados and this car is great. I agree 100% The man who marries a beautiful woman, and the farmer who grows corn by the roadside have the same problem

But 22kpl is over-ambitious @Premio. Even 15kpl town (meaning heavy traffic) is lucky. More reasonable numbers would be 15-16kpl highway and about 12kpl in traffic. This would be for the 1.8liter engine.
