I just had to revive this thread when seeing another kaki murah I'm glad to say with tofu pedals my Myvi can reach 20km/l quite easily - manual though and of course without any jams and stuff to ruin my day. Highest record ever was 23.6km/l on the highway at uncle speed.

I wished I kept my money for the Mirage instead - with my cheapfoot pedal - maybe might have crammed in even more But higher 15k investment - So at least I fell happier now hahaha). Prius will kill me with its price Got any mini-prius model? Btw, since cheapness is the topic -anybody ever had CNG on Myvi yet?

Based on my 1.5, the 1.3 optimum speed should be somewhere 70kph - anything above will begin to drain more fuel - for my 1.5 80kph netts me 22km/l steadily. my best comes at 75kph @23km/l - Going at 90kph is around 20-21km/l. Does your irridium plugs improve performance? I was informed it only netts longetivity.

Mine does - by all means it should unless for some reason urs does'nt perhaps coz of the rigging?

Whenever I do a restart, FC drops dramatically though nothing happened or moved (unless my figures have been averaged over an extended duration). Anyway - engine starts are a constant not a variable (thus you can exclude the constant, unless you're trying to measure how much minyak is used for 1000 engine starts or someting tying directly to restarting the engine, e.g. during idle or at traffic lights), whether your foot is heavy, or not - meaning that however you try to get around it, you still have to start your engine the same way unless you are trying out a new 'supernatural instant big boom spark plug'.

Resetting in the middle of the drive is of course not accurate, cause you are getting a reading at cruise speed which is always the optimum. My Myvi gets 26.5km/l at cruise speed, but because of other causes, e.g. slowing down, traffic lights, tolls my best average on the highway comes at 23.6km/l.

However, it is accurate to say that at 80kph, my Myvi runs 26.5km/l at that constant speed at gear 5 at 2k rpm, for example.
You won't get 26km/l with 4th gear, much less 3rd, or any of the time you are accellerating - by all means accelleration digs the tank like hell. Every stop I make = loss of 1km/l to regain 80kph on a 50km journey.

If I averaged all driving, it would go closer to 17km/l cause of my short city stints (yeah they drag it down so bad).

Hmm that's my guess, cos they mentioned the Mirage comes with a compact engine, which probably translates to an average cruising speed, blowing a small dude will make matters worse I guess. It would be very suited for city drivers - I was informed from someone on a Prius that highway drives dun nett them much improvements either - I guess since theres much less braking and energy loss. But from what I read elsewhere, got ppl claim Prius gets up to 35km/l (WTFBBQ)

I wanna NGV = 50% price per liter terus hahaha...
