Real world fuel efficiency of my Alcazar diesel at 6 months & 18000 km

The daily mileage is largely skewed towards 50-100 km. The highway mileage has made sure the average stayed close to 100, even though there were about 40 non-driving days.

Our Alcazar has completed 6 months with us on Sunday. Odo stood at 18280 at the half birthday mark averaging a touch over 100 km/day:

The daily mileage is largely skewed towards 50-100 km. The highway mileage has made sure the average stayed close to 100, even though there were about 40 non-driving days. The longest being 1135 that involved Warangal to Shirdi drive via Hyderabad-Wardha-Samruddhi Mahamarg:

The car has been obsessively on BPCL and IOCL COCO diet, barring an one-off 500 Rs refill in an IOCL near Pandharkawada for safety sake (I did want to cover the entire Samruddhi run and return to Waluj COCO pump).

Had a sidewall cut on the drive to Vainu Bappu in February. Replaced the spare with Apollo Alnac that put me off by 7600. This was the only unplanned expense at this point:

At a 5 Rs/km fuel cost (which is 70-80 paise/km above the S-Cross) , I am not complaining with the additional practicality I get.

Signing off the 6 month update with a picture on the banks of Lake Ramappa from our year end trip:
