Nothing to worry on both aspects.

These are the TATA Official FE Figures

City : 10.64 kmpl

Highways : 14.71 kmpl

Mixed :12.99 kmpl

So the Safari is performing as per expectations

For its entire run from the first day it has given me a FE of 12.17 to a liter.
Cost per KM works out to be Rs.2.84 per KM.

Total No of KM’s 12,234.
Fuel consumed 1005 liters.
Fuel Bill 34,715.00


Highway runs:

Between 14 to 15 to the liter.

On 2 occasions, with extreme control and patience (i.e. no hard acceleration, keeping the RPM and speed below 2.0-2.2K/ 75-80KM/H), I have even managed to squeeze 18 KM/liter. This is with the air con on at all times.


City Driving:

In the city, no matter how hard I try, the max FE I have managed to achieve is less than 11 Km/liter. Not that I am complaining but earlier I managed about 12-12.25.
However I think that this too is OK


Fuel changed from Premium to Normal Diesel
Further, after reading on the forum (on various threads) I have migrated from Premium Diesel to Normal Diesel from the last 1200 kms.
I have not noticed any major changes (towards the better or worse) in terms of vibrations, FE pickup etc.
Will update if I notice anything major.
