Same with my exora too, 10km/l and its with light foot.
I used to own an axia, I do get 13-14km/l with sprited driving.
Most car with torsion beam in the rear have the exhaust piping over the beam, so you never actually have to worry about minor flood.

Yes. Downward pointing ekzoz, I have to put my head down almost to the floor to take that picture.

Also I want to mention about the air intake located at the bonnet. New Axia has reposition its air intake at a higher position so that it could easily go through minor flood without sucking the flood water.

This pic I screenshot from a YouTube video explaining new Axia.
Err, drive through flood prone area is to do with air intake nothing to do with exhaust, which Perodua address in new Axia. As long as engine is running there is outlet pressure from exhaust quite impossible to suck in water. You pigi renang takut air masuk hidung ke takut air masuk bontot?

I thought the logic was to keep stepping on the gas so that engine rev is high to prevent water being sucked into the engine through the exhaust?
of course air intake needs to be high also la, otherwise water masuk through there when going through flood
but of course, if water too high, best not take a risk.
there are videos where perodua cars floating cuz they were too light. myvi and axia kena before i think

Even at engine idle your engine is still at 1000rpm thereabouts. There will always be positive pressure, or "blowing out" pressure. How to suck in? The only way that water can get into exhaust is when the engine dies, by sucking in too much water at the intake.
