Re: Is this for real? Gas sucker!!
i have a 2012 so new engine but milage is somewhat close. with 1000km I got 15.2L/100km and at 2700km I average out 14.5L/100km. This is all city driving no ringroad or highway! and all stock. I dont expect much change in winter, it will change when the fields and thick snow are in reach tho.

The mileage will get better with more Kms. I was told by dealer after 15,000 but I just turned 11,500 on my 2011 Sport 2 dr.and noticed an improvement. Scared me when I first got it! Thought 'what have I done!'
I do know that if you shift around 1500 rpm it will help the gas mileage and get on cruise as much as you can, you will up your mileage. Big tires will hurt mileage, but they also said a small lift will help a bit.
