Local stop and go driving with an obese passenger....incredibly hot out but use of a/c minimal.......I suspect part of the poor mileage was poor gas, and an extra two hundred and fifty pounds...the car was stumbling at times, and the gas station is now cloased.......and they havent mentioned why....my latest fill was with Chevron 87 octane and the car is running much smoother...... | ||

59.53 mi |
2.8 gal (US) 2.33 gal (Imp) |
25.6 mpg (Imp) 9.0 km/L 21.3 mpg (US) |
Stop and go driving in town...short distance, no air/con used....This stop and go fuel economy is disappointing.....perhaps the new snowies are adversely affecting fuel economy, but I thought 30mpg in town would be the norm...it gets decent economy on the freeway, but quite frankly, this mileage sucks....many larger vehicles get better fuel economy with stop and go driving..... | ||
91.84 mi |
2.9 gal (US) 2.41 gal (Imp) |
38.1 mpg (Imp) 13.5 km/L 31.7 mpg (US) |
Highway miles.....a little stop and go driving.....air/con use negligible.....the usual level of fuel economy for a trip in and out of Vancouver......Dunno if the fuel economy is affected by the new Michelin snowies.....It will take a few more trips in and out of Vancouver w/out being in rush hour traffic to see.....but the car certainly rides smoother with the new Michelins.... | ||

Stop and go driving in town...aircon on half the time, rainy as well......It seemed to really suck the gas....and the fuel economy shows.....this is a car for driving on the straight away....definately not hills and stop and go..... | ||

147.14 mi |
3.92 gal (US) 3.27 gal (Imp) |
45.0 mpg (Imp) 16.0 km/L 37.5 mpg (US) |
Freeway miles into Vancouver and some stop and go in town and in my hometown......aircon used half the time......I finally broke the 40 mpg barrier....perhaps the vehicle is just breaking in, also I realize steady driving on the level, even at freeway speeds makes for much better mileage in this car.......I wonder how it would have made out using no air at all..... | ||

9.21 gal (US) 7.67 gal (Imp) |
30.5 mpg (Imp) 10.8 km/L 25.4 mpg (US) |
Mainly stop and go driving....used mid grade gas this fill to see if it improved fuel economy.....if anything, it had the opposite effect....though the engine did seem to run smoother.....Ive noticed the engine does have a tendency to "surge" on occassion.... | ||
227.36 mi |
8.63 gal (US) 7.19 gal (Imp) |
31.6 mpg (Imp) 11.2 km/L 26.4 mpg (US) |

34.7 mpg (Imp) 12.3 km/L 28.9 mpg (US) |
Edging ever closer to that magic 35 mpg mark.....this was combined city/highway driving, so Im pretty impressed with the mileage.....seems to do better on Chevron gasoline Im finding..... | ||
180.2 mi |
6.68 gal (US) 5.56 gal (Imp) |
32.4 mpg (Imp) 11.5 km/L 27.0 mpg (US) |
Caught in a major traffic jam.....was basically crawling for 45 minutes with the air conditioner running the whole trip.......actually considering this, Im not too disappointed with the mileage....This was a combination of highway, freeway, and stop and go traffic in downtown Vancouver..... | ||

231.77 mi |
8.91 gal (US) 7.42 gal (Imp) |
31.2 mpg (Imp) 11.1 km/L 26.0 mpg (US) |
A little disappointed......first half of the tank seemed to be sipping.....the last quarter tank was sucked down like there was no tomorrow...I went from having 47 kilometres left on the guage to to flashing a wanring of a dry tank within it seemed like minutes......to be fair, I was carrying a load of new Michelin snow tires scored earlier in the day at Canadian tire, but I didnt think that added weight would have made the thing guzzle....but perhaps it does.....something that I will be watching..... | ||
251.78 mi |
8.73 gal (US) 7.27 gal (Imp) |
34.6 mpg (Imp) 12.3 km/L 28.8 mpg (US) |
Warmer temperatures, more freeway miles, making sure air con is shut off when using defog mode..... | ||
248.55 mi |
9.34 gal (US) 7.77 gal (Imp) |
32.0 mpg (Imp) 11.3 km/L 26.6 mpg (US) |
A lot of stop and go driving in incredibly cold temperatures(for BC) this past week.....knew mileage would be down considerably, so not particularly shocked..... | ||
259.73 mi |
8.74 gal (US) 7.28 gal (Imp) |
35.7 mpg (Imp) 12.6 km/L 29.7 mpg (US) |
The 7.9 litre per 100 km jives exactly with what the Micra readout stated. I think the mileage is decent considering this was combined city, highway, freeway, and back country driving. Where I live is mainly hills, so mileage is going to be less, but overall Im happy for a first fillup. As I was using the defroster a lot, the air con was coming on a lot as well.....and Id like to see what the mileage is on a normal day without the defrost and air con and no stop and go. I'd like to see it do 40 mpg. |
