yeah, the echo is good Smile
dont know what they claim standard...but when my car was stock i could only get 450kms to the tank...(abt 38L of fuel - 45L tank)
now...i push the limits of 550kms/38L
2 things i found make a remarkable difference are:

- the airbox intake snorkel. Be Gone With It!
and replace it with something of greater diameter if ur worried abt too much hot air getting in there...

- make up a Ground Wire kit. that connects points on the engine and chassis back to the neg (-) terminal on the battery.

each of these will (should) net you an extra 50kms per tank.
esp the intake. massive throttle body, yet the filter and snorkel are no bigger than what my echo has stock!!

and then if u feel like it, get a lower restriction air filter (K&N, Tom's) should also get at least another 30kms per tank.

and the best bit is, all the above mods will get u more power as well Cool

more power + better economy = happy driver Very Happy

**edit** this comes from 104,000kms of driving experience Shocked Embarassed
and i got a damn heavy foot. apparently the echo gets up to 650-700kms if driven like a grandma Confused
