    An entertaining read (and slightly dramatic, though not in a negative way) that goes over author's 1000km trip from Calgary to Vancouver.

    Road Trip: 2015 Nissan Micra SR, Calgary to Vancouver

    And really, apart from a few sections where a Fast & Furious snoot full of nitrous would have been handy to get past someone, the Micra’s been a completely competent travel companion. Even with the relatively high speeds and up-and-down driving, the average fuel consumption has dropped to the point that the final fill-up charts an average of 6.4 L/100 km. It’d be possible to do better in a larger sedan with a less-taxed engine, but that’s actually slightly better than the official rating – thank you, more realistic 2015 fuel-economy standards.

    I'd do a long road trip in a Micra... make mine a manual though (with cruise control).
