i personally own gen 2,
gen 2, drove before for 2 months
city drive with jams and slow traffic
full tank-400km

city 50%+highway 50%
full tank-bet 450 to 500km

highway 90% @100~110kmh
full tank-700km

gen3, according to friend

city drive with jams and slow traffic
full tank-450km

city 50%+highway 50%
full tank-500km

highway 90% @100~110kmh
full tank-700km~750km

disclaimer: this is from my own personal experience and will be different from others. your foot makes alot of difference on FC. till now i still unable to control my foot during slow drive, like after bump, the car transmission damn stupid will downshift and creating an unnecessary accelerating power which causes high FC, guess toyota drive by wire tech is not that good during the 2nd gen vios. 3rd gen vios have better drive by wire tech + lighter body. that's why you see a reduce of FC in the new vios

LOL delay 2 sec confirm driver behind me all curse me, like infront of traffic lights

however i don't feel it on 1st gen of vios, i notice too when i was driving my friends 1st gen vios, they use different TCU?

vios? easy, make sure you follow speed limit, vios ideal speed is 100kmh for optimum FC, at 100kmh, vios RPM will be around 2.5k.

my way of driving on highway is quite dangerous, i don't tailgate on highways, this is no 1 rule if you want low FC on your car.

other than that i rely on timing, speed and distance with precision on overtaking cars while changing gears, again not recommended to all, once you time it wrongly, accident could happen anytime


means that..... i dont brakes often on highway. not recommended again for new drivers

by not doing this, it is also possible to reach 650km on a full tank

ABS and handbrake lights are ON simultaneously

brake works fine and nothing went wrong when i press the paddle. anything went wrong? or just sensor problem?
