Just tested recently and my mileage is so bad.
I'm getting 400kms per 50litres or 248miles per 13gallons

which brings it to about 8kms per litre or 19miles per gallon
70% hwy, 30% city mileage about

my check engine is on due to code p1457 which is the evap leak. Guess i'll need to find out what's wrong and fix it

I'm v6 and at 23 highway 19 city.


I have 18" tires an a short ram intake which killed everything. I get better mileage of my stock ex rims.

Yes I do have a v6 :)


That's what I saw in the ratings as well but my mix mileage is lower than bare city mileage rating :(

All I have installed atm is a sri, your mileages are making me jelly!

If you haven't yet...do a tuneup(plugs, air filter, pcv valve, tires at correct psi all around, run some fuel injector cleaner, drain n fill tranny fluid, get an alignment if never had one)

That said though, getting 400km for 50L or around 11-12L/100km or 18-21mpg has been the norm for me for awhile and I have a 4cyl.

Your evap code p1457 will require either a new canister or shutoff valve, or 2-way valve, or bypass solenoid valve or could be something as simple as a cracked rubber hose. A TSB issued for our cars however claims that most common culprits are shutoff valve or bypass solenoid.

According to this, I4 is rated 20/28 with a combined rating of 23. V6 is 18/26, with a combined 21.

I have an I4 automatic. When I commuted 60 miles roundtrip to school everyday (mostly all highway miles), I averaged anywhere from 26-30mpg. That's factoring in heavy ass aftermarket wheels and a hole in the flexpipe, but I always cruised at 65-70mph.

Now that I'm done with school, I only rack up city miles and average about 18-20mpg. But I also drive on D3 when not on the freeway. No real need for that 4th gear on city streets, IMO.
