| ![]() Volvo S60 D3 (i.e. 2.0 l) 11.0 kms/l over first 3000 kms, in exclusive city runs (crawling traffic scenario), of about 30 kms per day. I get instantaneous consumption numbers of about 17+ kms/l often on long stretches. I woudl not be surprised if long runs moved the average to about 13-14 kms/l. Volvo XC90 D5 (i.e. 2.4 l) 10.5 kms/l over mostly highway run of 1700 kms about 9-9.5 in the city on short runs (stop/start is cruel on this 2100 kgs vehicle, where instantaneous consumption can show 32l/100kms !). Since both are diesel vehicles, the fuel cost is about Rs 4-5/km here in Delhi, for my typical usage (sedan for city, SUV for out of town). |

| ![]() I have done over 60,000kms on my swift vdi in 2 years. Even today I get a consistent 15-16 kms in Bangalore traffic and 18-20 kms on highways. My previous i10 kappa used to give 11kms in Bangalore traffic hence sold it off. |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() ^^^Would help if the FEs were posted in the Indian way ie kmpl (instead of lp100km) - helps save the time/effort spent on mental calculations for dividing 100 by fractional values. ![]() |
