5sfe in auto '95 camry : ~9 L/100km's. Goes down to the 7's on the highway. Should be better, but it's a thirsty engine in the large car.

Eeek... I wish my figures were like some of the above

I get 15L/100km (city) and around 11L/100 (pure highway).

Unfortunately, the city figures are the same whether I flog the car or drive it like a grandma.

Car: 2003 Corolla Conquest Sedan 1.8L 1ZZ-FE, usually running BP Premium (95 Octane).

My regular driving (mix of city & country) returns ~ 6.5 litres per 100k's, that's 450-480k's per 30 litres (in other words about half a tank).

Careful highway driving sees that figure drop to ~ 5 litres per 100k's (or 600k's off half a tank), while pushing it through the city might see consumption rise to ~ 7.5 - 8 litres per 100k's. Absolute worst i've gotton so far was 8.4L per 100k's, off regular unleaded...

You're all driving like pussies......

My economy is shit. I dunno how many k's I get coz my speedo has never worked.

My RX4 used to get approx 140k's per $40 tank of Optimax (back when the prices per litre weren't ridiculous).....

The 22re likes a bit of a drink mostly drving around the city and the best figures I have achieved is around 15l per one hundred km, go my 60l tank with a 400km range, usually one do about 250 before I fill up though. Makes no difference whether I cane it or not thoguh seems to use roughly the same. Have achieved my best economy on shell optimax though.

Damn my 4agze needs a tune.....
wait for it...

about 17litres/100km onboost

I think its about 12-13litres/100km offboost/city driving.

Its either that or the fuel light/ is comming on way too early... and/or the reading is off. but im not game to test that out.. =p

How did i get these astronomical figuires..

the sprinters tank is 35litres. And I clock up anywhere from 180-190-200km before the fuel light comes on. (all city driving).

Guess she just has too much power Laughing

Ha i have one engine for you 5M-E......its the slowest thirstiest motor i know.

The lowest i have got my car is 11.5L/100ks mostly its around 14L/100ks and occasionally i get about 300ks off a tank which is 70L so thats just over 20L/100ks.

But one of my mates has got a new sportivo corolla and we got from melb to syd on 1 tank thats about 700ks off 40L.

I got a brand new 5E-FE Tercel (1997)

Open Road, about 400kms off half a tank, not sure how big the tank is but its only like $26 of 96 here in NZ, 96 is $1.08 a litre.

I can do about 350kms around the city with A/C off and driving really slow Laughing

Hi,

Dunno what I get. I can't figure out l/km. I'm an mpg guy Smile

I think I'm getting better economy since the carbs were rebuilt and the engine tuned. It hasn't done a long highway drive for over 5 years. I'm gonna have to fill up the tank this week and that'll be the fourth (or maybe fifth) time this year I've had to do that - as you see, it ain't driven all that much.

Actually, most of its mileage the last three months has been between various mechanics, Toyota and other car places to get things checked or done. Once she's all done, I'll be hanging out to go on a nice long cruise.

4A-GZE AW11 - 10.6 km/l last fill up.
MA70 Supra - 8.5km/l usually, best is ~10km/l (630km, 62L or something), worst is about 7km/l recently, I think its sulking because I bought the MR2. Smile
