Yupp..agree with u. It is quite hard to get that FC figure. I need to tame & ease down my foot during overtaking to get this kind of figure. My best computer-calculated FC is 5.9L/100km..constant 110km/h cruising all the way from Tanjung Malim to KL (autocruise). The 6.1L/100km FC pic that u saw in my previous post was taken during my journey from Alor Setar to KL with constant speed of 110km/h (mostly) also by autocruising. I guess the hilly road of Perak did contribute to the extra 0.2L/100km in FC. Anyway..for a normal 4 speed 2.0L car , getting 6.xL/100km during highway speed cruising can be considered as very2 good already.

my car stuck 7.1l/100km to 7.4l/100km on highway n 8.5l/100km to 9.0l/100km on city driving.haih...

Hi, I had driven Forte 2.0 6 speed and the RPM hit 2.5k when the speed is 120kph
The RPM is ~2.3k when the speed is 110kph
*
Then, it is roughly the same figure with the 4 speed Forte 2.0. So i guess, in term of FC..not so much different between both gen. But in term of riding smoothness, the 6 speeder win hands down nod.gif

You mean kia huat?Why they closed down?...how about their service centre..
*
yea, KIA HUAT closed down....only show room, so means no more sales for KIA cars in Alor Setar until near future....
Service Centre still on....
The reason is bcoz of swap boss, the new boss management sucks....does 1 by 1 worker lari ald...heard it from my own ears...juz 4 mths after swap boss....bankcrupt....
the previous boss gonna open up another KIA show room in near future....hopefully, no more conflict...

Izputra and Epo, remember ooo...i nid those 3 things that nid u all 2 take back for me....

Hehehe.... I don't think I will.... I don't think the avante is going to be cheap... Looking at the trend, it should be more expensive, maybe 1.6 priced at RM88k or RM90k and 1.8 at RM100k. I love avante so so much.... So sad my current situation doesn't permits me to wait... sad.gif
