2005 Corolla Fuel Consumption: 12.5 liter/100kms

Hello,
I am living in Southern Ontario. These days (just below the freezing point), when I use the car 70% for very short trips like 2-3 km's every morning and 30% for city driving with regular gasoline, my fuel consumption becomes a very big problem for a Corolla: 12.5 liter / 100 km : 19 mpg (Us). But pure highway driving is like 7 liter per 100 km: 34 miles per galon.

The car is 2005 Corolla CE Automatic 110.000km (64000 miles).

Do you think there is a problem, or is it just like that for everybody.

Thanks.

This is normal, but a block heater will help.

Short trips are a killer on a car, not just with fuel mileage.
