[QUOTE="leforte, post: 296360, member: 1943"] haha, its really not hard to achieve tat kinda mileage. learning how to drive smoothly with no abrupt revving always helps. anyway, there is always a misconception that a bigger cc car or a more powerful car is just going to be a fuel guzler, but the truth is, its just much more efficient to run with ample torque available across the rev range for normal driving, only when you are stepping on it that it shows its true appetite. i am using only 1600+/- rpm when i am travelling at 110km/h while my other cars with a smaller cc will be using almost double or more. :rolleyes: check out this video from top gear of a e9o m3 vs a toyota prius. the test shows the m3 with almost 4x the power and also bigger petrol engine capacity beats the electric hybrid toyota prius in a fuel economy test.
