What is your Actual Fuel Efficiency?

shajoshi · 19th June 2017, 14:53

10 month old Maruti Vitara Brezza ZDi with 10,000 km on odo. Drive from Pune to Ratnagiri and back - total of 730 km over three days. Average returned 21.6 km/litre. About Half the distance is on 4 lane highway of NH4 at about 80-100 kmph and the remaining on divided highways between 60-70 kmph. Climbed up and down Katraj, Khambatki and Amba Ghat but that effect should be nullified in a round trip. MID indicated exactly that much.

Sorry to disillusion you. I drive almost the same car (a 2014 Dzire VXi), and the MID readings are approximately 25% more than the actual figures. So, the actual FE for your 100 km trip is approximately 19.5 km/l.

I am driving a recently bought Used Tata Aria (87K Kilometers), Running mostly in city now (Kolkata), avg FE returned is 10.5 KMPL. I guess on highways it will return more.

Have been running my 2006 indica xeta (63000 odo) regularly again recently. On the tank full method have been getting between 11.4 to 12.2 km/ltr. This is in Goa, ac on 75% on the time (variable basis of weather, might explain part of the variation). Car mostly does inter city school run for my boys.

Figo 1st Gen diesel, odo: 99,000kms. Bangalore city drive, I get consistent 15-16kmpl. Long drives it's down to 18-19kmpl.

Mahindra TUV3OO T8 84 BHP:

ODO: 16090 kms

Within City (Bengaluru) I get around 12 kmpl and on highway around 15.5 kmpl. On best of highways also I prefer to maintain speed in between 80 to 90 kmph.

Car: Maruti Ciaz
Fuel: Diesel
Trip: 796.8 km
Fuel: 34.03 L
FE: 23.41 km/L
MID: 23.5 km/L

95% of this is Highway running. I hope to extract more as the engine opens up.

With my dad behind the wheel, the city milage drops to 10.5 to 11 kmpl and highway milage drops to 14.5-15 kmpl

Cool! Those are respectable numbers given the weight of the car. I know Indica Xeta owners who were very happy with the engine, now the Revotron is keeping up. Tata really can be considered very competent in both fuel types

I drive Tata Vista Quadrajet - 2010 model. I've been maintaining fuel refills' record on aCar android app, tank-to-tank full calculation.
The following are the summary of stats under various driving conditions,

Total Kms covered so far : 1,05,580

City / Urban mileage : 14-16 kmpl (with always AC switched on)

Highway mileage : 19-23 kmpl (with AC switched on always)

Overall Average mileage : 16 kmpl

Worst - 11 kmpl
Best - 23 kmpl

These are the figures put together for the entire ownership period across the cities Chennai (50%), Hyderabad (30%) & Bangalore (20%) with heavy foot / agile style of driving.

Heres my latest for Ignis. Note: fuel economy meter is reset with Trip A so its for last 75 kms only (all city non peak hours AC on 50%)

NaXal · 16th July 2017, 10:37

Ford Aspire TDCi
Running with HP Normal diesel.
100% A/C and 100% Kolkata City drive under mix of peak hour and afternoon non pick hour traffic (70%-30%).
Always 3 person minimum on board.
Trip meter 457 kms oddo is 3333.

MID is pretty accurate when comparing with Tank full to Tank full. Often the difference is less than 0.1/0.2.

Chitta Pradhan · 16th July 2017, 23:52

Completed a round trip of 470 km with four on board & with half boot luggage. Got an actual FE of 19 kmpl, tank full method. Driving style - slow acceleration but if road permits , I drive at 110-120 kmph.
My car- 2011 1.6 CRDI Fluidic Verna, done 77 k so far. Quite happy with highway FE. But city FE is around 14 @ Bhubaneswar. My friends with 1.3 Scross get around 18 kmpl under similar driving conditions, quite a difference.
