Fuel Economy of Vehicles

What is the fuel economy of your car?

I drive a Honda City with 1.5 liter i-DSI engine, and I get 14.5 km for every liter of gasoline.

Blogger Meediexiang also drives a Honda City, but her car is equipped with a 1.5 liter VTEC engine. She recorded 11.3km/liter.

So, it looks like i-DSI engine really saves fuel, just as the auto giant claims. But of course there are many other factors which determine the gas mileage. Maybe Meediexiang drives like her idol – Kimi Raikonnen.

Toyota Prius hybrid vehicle is said to get 48 miles per gallon, or 20 km per liter . The oversized GM Hummer, which has also hit the roads of Malaysia, gets just 14mpg, or 6km/liter .
