    These cars are great on long trips
    Drove to Buffalo and back, stopped in south Scarborough to drop off a passenger and noticed the trip odometer was at 481km
    Continued on home to Oshawa and filled the car at 530km
    Gas gauge was still on 1/2
    I used cruise control must of the time set at 115 kph with 3 adults in the car
    I'm very curios to see what the car does when I head to South Carolina later this yearName:  image.jpg

    So far averaging 7.1 L/100 km on our trip from Edmonton to Winnipeg, as per our trip computer. Varied city / highway driving, passing, climbing some hills, with 4 adults and all their stuff in the trunk
    Nice!

    200,000+ km tracked... 500+ fill-ups... 30+ cars

    We passed a number of milestones since the last thread update.

    On average, members are getting 6.9 L/100 km, handily beating the car's official ratings. Nicely done, Micra drivers!

    2017 fuel economy rating (city / hwy):


    • 8.7 / 6.8 (manual transmission)
    • 8.9 / 6.8 (automatic)


    2015/16 fuel economy rating:

    • 8.6 / 6.6 (manual transmission)
    • 8.8 / 6.6 (auto)


    (From thread: 2017 Micra fuel economy rating is lower than 2015/16 &nbsp

    I'm getting high 7 to low 8's. Thisis with 17inch rims and my highway driving at about 118-119. Plus I'm not the easiest on the gas pedal at stops and lights. I could probably do better but my gas consumption going from an audi is a big decrease already, so i'll take that as a win. I do miss my comfy audi though.

    Yup, fuel economy is relative.

    The previous owner of my new-to-me $750 Miata bought it because it was "great on gas" compared to his Volvo SUV. But it's the least fuel efficient of the last 7 cars I've owned!

    6.9 ----> 6.8

    Just noticed our annual summertime fuel economy improvement has kicked in:

    The fleet average fuel economy just improved from 6.9 to 6.8 L / 100 km! Woohoo.

    32 Micras, 575 fill-ups, 231000+ km tracked.

    250,000+ km tracked --- new feature

    We're already past 250k km.

    I added a new little feature today. On the fuel log page, click the link below the header to compare the fuel economy average of the automatic vs. manual transmission Micras:


    View detailed fuel economy stats by transmission type (4-speed automatic vs. 5-speed manual).

    Keep in mind that the ratings for both transmissions are almost identical.
