hehe OD got 26 kpl on highway in a carb zen withan automech free flow. i got 21-22 kpl because i was driving between 40-60 kph.and its not at all possible to keep driving that way.i got a free highway from chembur to mulund (15kms) on both sides. also i was getting all types of fingers from angry drivers who ha dto overtake me from the left an d the right sides. but under normal city driving with AC i get around 14kpl.so with my speedo error it should be getting around 13kpl at least,if it shows 14kpl | |

Hi Satan --- Pl dont rip ur Baleno till 1000 KM or even 2000 km just keep it at smooth 70-80 limit and regarding ur Baleno Screeaming - pl check with ur service guys mine doesnt scream at 150 km/hr so somethings wrong with ur driving style or it could be ur car also ![]() Its been 13 months since i bought my Baleno Have been very happy with the vehicle and also the service. I wanted to test my mileage - so went for a long drive with tank full and it was on the peripherals of chennai the speed was 70- 80 constant - the mileage i got was really good - 18 kmpl - without AC (the fuel filled was ordinary unleaded petrol from BP) if u rip it at 100-140 - the mileage is poor 13-14 kmpl (got during a previous drive with AC on 50% time) The mileage i get in the city with AC always on is 10.5 to 11.5 mostly crawling at 20-30 km/hr with lots of clutch use. Regarding service - i request you guys to check Maruti Masters in ur Locality ( they are present in chennai and Delhi) These guys are courteous and go out of the way to do things. Infact I was served lunch as i had to wait for some extra time. These guys are direct from Maruti and are not franchisees... And the car was given back to me after all the things i wanted to be done to it - done perfectly Bharath Last edited by bharathsolomon : 17th July 2005 at 20:12. Reason: typo error | |

BHPian | ![]() New Honda City 2004 - done 7000 kms City Average - 11-12 (AC ON 90%) Highway - 15-16 (AC ON 90%) Overall i get about 13.5 (AC ON 90%) (33% highway, 66% city). On express highway i expect about 18kmpl with A/C on in my new honda city =) (I use speed petrol) I used to have old honda city 1.3 also that i think used to give me 9 kmpl in city and 13-14 kmpl on highway with 90% AC on. |

| ![]() SWIFT VXI - 13 KMPL with 100% ac on Yet to try in highways PS: I cannot say it's 100% city drive. The 15 kms stretch I travel to my office is a mix of both crowded & empty strech (Tambaram - Velachery) |

Mine gives me 11 or 11.5 with 12 once. On a small highway drive of total 200 km it was about 14.. Maybe it's coz of the extra weight of the Zxi or the climate control? | |

Third top-up yesterday. Got 11.9. Have changed-over to regular BP fuel and will fill regular for the next three top-ups. Then c/over to Speed for one fill, maybe two, and then back to regular and so on. Driving City driving only. Abt 85% of the time, never get a chance to go beyond 3rd gear/2500 rpm. AC ON all the time. Cheers | |

Team-BHP Support ![]() ![]() | ![]() Xsailor, the BPCL pump just across the border(Sector 8 side) is a good deal. Saves you around 120rs when you top up due to cheaper fuel in delhi(3.5rs difference). Its just 3kms from city center, so its worth it! |
