I've managed to pull 5.3L/100km doing 100-120, 90% cruising, 10% city traffic. Manual transmission, shifting at 2000 (too easy, I know, but have you seen gas prices lately!!!)

[stuts]

I have a question I hope you guys can answer actually sorry I know you guys can answer can you please show me how you get the conversions to tell how many MPG imperial/Canadian you get on a tank of gas let me give you the numbers say I get 400km on a tank of gas and I put in 35 litters how would you figure out the MPG imperial if you could show me the Calculation that would be great please make it easy for me to understand thanks

sorry if this is a stupid question i really dont know

[stuts]

I figured this post of mine would have been answer already can anyone let me know pretty please with a strawberry on top lol

divide 400kms by 1.6 (number of kilometres in a mile) to get 250 miles. There are approx 4 liters in a gallon, so divide 35 liters by 4 to get approx 8.75. Miles per gallon is 250/8.75 which gives around 28.5 miles per gallon.

Hope this helps

Actually it's 4.546 litres in a "Canadian"gallon. And 3.785 litres in a U.S. gallon. So it's closer to 32 mpg

yeah yeah, its a ballpark. Just to give stuts an idea of how to go about the conversion

Hello Lads. Getting 45MPIG on flat and straight roads in Alberta on my daily commute (110km round trip). About 90% Highway driving. Just started shifting at 2000RPM a la wjordan. I am interested to see if there is any effect in fuel economy. I was previously shifting at 2500RPM (unless a semi was up my grille!). My car is a 2007 Silver Yaris hatchback with a cracked windshield and granny pillows in the back seat.

Ahh. The warm weather is comming back, and so is the good gas mileage.

Yesterday I drove a little in the city with about 18km/l (42.3mpg),
then on some open roads with almost 100km/h: 21,7km/l (51.0mpg)
and finally on motorway where the average speed was around 120km/h so the combined fuel economy dropped to 18,9km/l (44,5mpg).

Still in the good old '00 Yaris 1.0.

Xenginerd cracked windshield dang what happened Granny pillows WOW where did you buy those anyways THANK YOU VERY MUCH to CJH123 and good old Island boy for your answers it is going to be interesting to hear what a lot of you guys are going to post on your MPG this summer I am positive you will start seeing better results with warmer weather

Hey guys what about this example: a car goes 400 KM & takes 40 liters to fill the tank up. Therefore the car went 10 km for each liter IE 400 divide by 40 = 10 km/liter. To convert this figure to MPG simply multiply by factor 2.83 Therefore 10 km/liter x 2.83 = 28.3 MPG.

I found that on a website

[Lasse D]

Or you can just type it in google. I simply wrote "21.7km/l in mpg" and google gave the answer. It doesn't say whether it's imperial mpg though.

I'm looking forwards as well stuts. With those gas prices right now, there will be a lot new drivers out there trying to maximize the economy.
