460km with 2 bar left fulamak.... My cvt persona can only manage to go 430km with 70% highway 30% city hahahahaha. Manual persona is so much more efficient than the cvt. Mind telling whats the rpm when u r going at around 100kmh?

Just to see only.. these figure can tell something more about our similarity of driving condition

By right MT and CVT shouldn't differ too much in fuel consumption.. but there's one more MT owner say the FC is bad too... so let's see

Yes, the stock Silverstone is very loud. Somehow I do find it pretty grippy... so far I never skid except boss
Not sure if I already used to it or the tire run in already, I find the noise is less annoying/loud now...

Based on gear ratio calculation along with current stock tire setup, we are getting around 103km/h at 3k rpm for 5th gear
If based on meter, around 2.8-2.9k rpm at 100km/h

How about Conti MC5? Price should be slightly higher den cc6 I guess. P

You mean get this info from the meter cluster?
But anyhow my cvt won't be close to your FC.
Last few days I have been driving super eco ly. And gosh it's really boring. I used to drive 80-110kmh easily on highway but now I just can only take the middle lane and sometimes the slow lane, at 60kmh or max 80kmh. FC improved with additional 50km for half tank. If drive like this still not good FC then the engine really can throw d...I not yet pump petrol so will try again this time with full tank.

Just now I use my obd2 to read the data from ecu, I am using torque lite Android app with my Bluetooth obd2. The only thing closest to the engine temperature that I can see from the app is "engine coolant temperature" . Others are not relevant. Maybe if use the paid version can get more info. But anyway, this is what I saw

60c to 74c = our 2 bars
75c onwards is 3 bars.

Driving from usj to puchong, I keep an eye on the app, the whole journey, the temperature is between 75-78c

Not sure this helps

Ya, from the meter cluster... I always reset at each full fuel up.

But however, I would suggest to drive the car the way you like, you don't have to follow our ah pek style driving to get good FC since I believe the motive you got this car is not just for the FC or you would have go for Bezza instead.

If it makes u to be another person that you don't feel comfortable with, just drive the way you like would make u a happier man

Another worth mentioning torture for fuel save is not to hit down the accelerator too much when going uphill, best if you can just maintain the throttle. But this will be Super unsatisfying watching your speed drop, cars at your back is getting closer to you but still not doing anything to it

If this is accurate, I guess the engine operate at pretty normal temperature, just that the temperature bar between 2nd and 3rd is within the optimal operating temperature, a slight change would make it drop to 2nd bar

You hit My point bro. It's really unsatisfying to have to force my self to drive like this but if I don't drive like this and follow my own driving style, it will be drinking fuel like nobody business. Fc is worse than my old car. Still trying to accept this fact tbh

Too bad this Persona can't have both FC and Power at once...

It actually applies to other car also... I read somewhere that the Inspira 1.8MT has FC worse than Iswara 1.5 AT because he always floor to metal on both car. Not sure he's joking or for real

I think Inspirian should know who i'm talking about in case they are reading this

Doesn't happen to all cars but yes, some. In my opinion, a car should be reasonable fc when driving normally within the speed range that we normally use, for example below 100kmh then the engine has a balance of fc and power. Not necessary must be very powerful but the keyword is balance. If a car need to drive like this like that only can save fc then the engine is not friendly to the driver. I still think all these can be programmed in the ecu. Really no one attempted reflash the iriz?

Thanks for the info man. So which means even the bar drop to 2 during your driving from usj to puchong is around 75-78c reading?

I'm using the XiaoMi USB Car Charger & I got it from kopiPeng
No problems with it so far

By the way, any daiko here get any after market arm rest? Any recommendation?

No.
It's constantly on 3 bars. Not a lot of highways.
If drop to 74c then it will go 2 bars but I don't think it matters.

I agree, the bar give drivers a wrong impression of huge fluctuation and causes unnecessary anxiety.

Just worry it might hit 70C? With 7 bars indicators, the step ratio should be wide enough, wonder why can't they fit in to the nominal bar.

Thanks for tagging bro!

You have to press the button and hold it for few seconds to turn it off.

can i ask what is the functionality of a car charger since we already have a usb port in the car? sorry newbie here.
