Proton Savvy is now rated as the most fuel-efficient car in Malaysia as verified by Malaysian Book of Records during an on-road test by Proton with the average fuel consumption of about 24 km/L (or about RM0.08/km of fuel), though Proton originally claimed that the average fuel economy was about 18 km/L.

go figure........

i guess you've not been browsing around the FC related threads in F&F forum to actually notice the pattern huh?

2 cars that always get praise for FC.

1. Honda City I-DSI version
2. Proton SAVVY.

other cars worth mentioning (i think) are
1. Perodua Kelisa (which model i donno.....)
2. Toyota VIOS
3. Perodua Myvi

these models are based on what i remember when i browse those FC related threads, so feel free to find out more.

as to Kancil 650 - small CC doesn't mean better FC. you have to compare it to the car's weight. and i've not come by praise for Kancil 650 FC, Kelisa 1.0 on the other hand is known to have good FC.

hmm interesting .. actually the only Proton models i am soon ngan with are Savvy and Satria Neo .. dunno why, maybe the change of management .. but then that is way too late and Proton has been consistently and systematically killing consumer confidence since the last 20 years. Anyhow, i still think Savvy and MyVi are rediculously overpriced! drop few Ks Savvy would not be a bad choice after all.

IMO Savvy is still ok, you get AMT and stuff like that for around RM 40k.

i personally find Kancil 650 overpriced. a fresh-grad is not likely to able to afford even a 1st hand of the lowest spec Malaysian made car.

Kancil 850 manual has much better FC then the 660 version. A friend and me once drove from KL to Penang. He drove his gf's 660 kancil, while i drove my wife's 850. Both cars manual.


assuming tank volume and weight are identical, the 660 will need more power to push the car compared to the 850. biggrin.gif

get a bicycle la! ha ha ....no just joking...anyways, myvi is not bad though....can go to kl from malacca with 60%+- percent fuel left...and that's like avg speed of 130.

AFAIK the new batches of Myvi has better FC, some changes on the ECU.
