Real world fuel economy of my 96k km / 7 year old Tata Tigor diesel

I guess in real it may have achieved 25 kmpl, which for a 96k km run vehicle, I find the fuel efficiency is good when sedately driven!

Quote from BHPian ashutoshb:

This time, tried to do something different. Decided to never cross 2000rpm, in any gear.

This is my Tigor diesel 7 year old 96k km run vehicles fuel efficiency last week, when I drove in a similar manner as you mentioned.

This is during peak hour office time morning travel from Navi mumbai to western suburbs of Mumbai.
I drove on eco mode with 100% AC. My typical one way distance from home to office is 55 km of which 70% is highways. Barely does the vehicle cross 70 kmph though.
Generally the actual efficiency as compared to what the MID shows is 2 kmpl less, so I guess in real it may have achieved 25 kmpl, which for a 96k km run vehicle, I find the fuel efficiency is good when sedately driven!
