gas mileage on corolla

[koss78a]

what is your gas mileage like on your 2005 corolla or 2003 or 2004?

how many km do u have when u have to fill up?

is it like 500 - 600km (city) till u fill up

or is it more or less

[TOcorolla]

i average about 500km before i have to refuel mind you i don't drive it till it's empty ...so i 'm sure it can go for a few more kilometres.

30.6 city highway combination
36.3 just highway
27.4 just city

so far I only have 978 miles on my 2005 le

Around 200miles for half a tank combining city and highway driving. Besides I usually speed and push the car a lot, so I get somewhere around there. Never really tested how much I can get because I fill up at half a tank and use both trip meters for my brakes and for my oil.

thanx for the info guys, the reason i was worried is i just got my car and i think its sorta sucking the gas out of it

i have 230km on it now and its almost to half a tank, so maybe its just misleading

when u first get a new car, does it suck the car fast or am i just imagainings things?

It could take up to 7500 miles to get your best mielage

Mercedes Benz more like 15,000 to be really broken in.

200km is how many miles?

[koss78a]

for your answer

the math formula is like 1mile = 1.609 kilometres

so like 7500 miles would equal to 8175km

Isn't 7500 x 1.609 = 12067.5?

[Bo Hunter]

I get average about 36mpg. On highway trips I've gotten as high as 42.

[koss78a]

when does the gas mileage get reasonable for the corolla S

i have since my last fill up 130 km and the fuel gauge is near the first quarter mark

is that normal for a newer car?

[2005_XRS]

My first tank got 29.7 mpg... mostly hwy driving.

Most cars, especially imports don't usually get broken in until 15,000-20,000 miles (about 24-32,000 KM) so you won't have your best mileage until then....don't worry you'll be OK eventually

Did you know that there is a Mercedes Benz, I'm not sure which, that the engine doesn't get broken in until 100,000 miles....I wanna say its the sl500 but I think I'm wrong. 100K miles!!!!! That's insanely cool.....if Mercedes and this info is correct then that engine should go for like 500k miles like it was no big deal.
