Waja full tank is 55L-60L....that's y it can go up so high..
Forte max at 50L...mine can clock at 550km for full city drive using RON97, while 480km for RON95

Gema engine and theta using dual valve timing...as standard....
but new optima and sportage, same goes with sonata, came with D-CVVT, equal to toyota's Dual VVT-i
*
GEMA actually stands for Global Engine Manufacturer's Alliance which Hyundai/Kia are a part of. The 1.6 engine in our local Forte is called Gamma and it has CVVT on the intake side only. Similarly, the Theta II engine used in the local 2.0 Forte also employs single CVVT only. The correct term is Continuously Variable, not Dual timing since the ECU manages the timing and lift duration over the entire rev range and not just low cam high cam dual profile only, which you're suggesting.

Dual CVVT means dual continuously variable valve and timing control, i.e., control on both intake and exhaust.

both.. 6 speed is better compared to 4 speed.
4 speed for me not underpower at all.

i've tested my friend's 1.6 EX (4 speed).. for me her car is underpower eventhough the rim is smaller than mine.
maybe because i've already mod.. but my rim still 17" stock one.. the pickup and power's differences are a lot.

did you just get your car? usually before the 1st to 3rd services the fuel consumption is unusually high, by the 3rd service it should be a lot better. In fact after the 1st it should improve already.
