In November 2005, I decided to see how fuel efficient my car can be.

With A/C on, I got a mileage of 16.47 kpl in the city with A/C on (between 2 tankfuls, 373 km took 22.65 litres).
I have never driven that way again but it gave me a pointer to what is possible. But without providing the conditions or my driving style, if I claim an Indica V2 LSi gives 16 kpl in the city with A/C, I may not believe myself! |
Come on man gets this upshift is the perfect one. I use same upshifts in my accent and wagon R and getting very good results in wagon R, bolting 18-19 kmpl but i have a habit to change my routes if i see some jams and run cont. and its very rare that i'm stuck in the jams. This may be the reason that i'm getting more mileage in Wagon R than you. hehe
