Tideland Prius 10-18-2007, 11:37 AM That's pretty good for the FEH and its siblings. I just wonder why they don't sell a lot of them (can't be the price, they're fairly reasonable up here in Canada).
100$ GUY 10-18-2007, 12:38 PM tideland prius, u are the winner! in fuel economy I guess....:D
Good news for yaris, even thou in the sales chart that aint reflected in the past months.
As for corolla, fortifies his role, the one which many people buy it for !
ECHOKnight2000 10-18-2007, 03:35 PM Well, I guess apparently Toyota's aren't reliable anymore but hey you still get the fuel effeciency! At least Toyota is good at something!:lol::lol::thumbup:

lol... but I never get 46mpg! :rolleyes: I should file a complaint for a lemon :lol::lol: I get 55mpg instead! What a crime! They said I should get 46mpg!
CarShark 10-18-2007, 06:56 PM I find it amazing that only two cars get better that 40mpg combined, and none of them aren't hybrids. Also strange is the fact that the highest rated non-hybrid gets only 32 mpg combined.
EvoFire 10-18-2007, 09:52 PM I'm surprised the Corolla beats the Fit out.
middleoroad 10-18-2007, 10:05 PM I'm not suprised,that's why I bought a Corolla,more room,more comfort,more power,more efficiency!
Tideland Prius 10-18-2007, 10:29 PM I'm surprised the Corolla beats the Fit out.
hmm? It matches in combined rating. It beats it in highway, yes.
This may be the reason why the new Corolla has similar hp/tq. Toyota wanted to focus on fuel efficiency.

The Corolla has 20% more HP than Fit and weighs the same.The better gas mileage comes from awesome engineering.

The Fit weighs the same as the Corolla?!?! omg.
Just like how the "economical" 1.6 litre Aveo gets worse mileage than it's bigger brother the Aerio (dunno about the SX4).

I don't think the Aerio is related to the Aveo, unless they are the same platform but I think the Aerio is a bigger car if I'm not mistaken. Plus I think its all Suzuki no re-badged Korean crap...er car.:thumbup:
Although I could be wrong.:D

I don't think that the Aveo vs. the Aerio is a good comparison. The Chevrolet Aveo (and its twin, the Suzuki Swift+) is a re-badged version of a Korean, Daewoo-built car, and the Aerio and the SX4 are Japanese, Suzuki-built vehicles. From the information that I have seen, Korean car engines still cannot match Japanese car engines for fuel efficiency.

Nope, they're not related. I just mean "brother" loosely (through the Swift+). And like Sulu said, it's a Daewoo Lanos/Matiz

Yeah... but the marketers don't tell you that. They just say "well it's a small car with a small engine so it's good on gas" and unless you actually look, the average person will be fooled into thinking that.
