alltrac/gt-four fuel economy

my dad used to have an 89 celica GT. and fuel economy on it was amazing. it could do 700km on a 50L tank on regular 89 fuel.

Now that I got my new 91 gt-four. i didn't expect it to have the same fuel economy. after all, its has a turbo and its awd. but Damn, i didn't know it would be this bad. 450km on a 60L tank on 91 octane fuel.

Is this normal? or is there something wrong with my car. what do you guy think about 94 octane fuel? would it give me better fuel economy?

alright, tricky questions.

which is better when driving 70km/h. thats what i usually drive at on a 60km/h road.

coasting at...
2.4k rpm in 4th gear?
OR
1.9k rpm in 5th gear?
