Celica's Fuel Economy, MPG and 100km/L Options

[vile_v]

Alright I hope this clears up any misconceptions on what our cars was getting. Some of the people on this board have gotten outrageous fuel economy, which in turn has discourage other members into believing how bad of a condition their car is in.

First off, fuel economy has many factors that effect it. Some of these factors are age, health, weight, how you drive, model (to some degree) So please take these things into consideration when reading this chart.

I hope this information has been of some used.

Its not my typical DIY but its pretty damn useful. aha

- my celica was getting 12.8L/100kms (I had a half a dime size hole in the front pipe) it was recently replaced with another used pipe. I am now getting 10.8L/100kms mixed of highway and city driving + lead foot aha LESSON TO LEARN: FIX YOUR EXHAUST LEAKS!!!

[955SFE]

I get an average of 25-27mpg. That's with 70%city and 30%highway. City sucks balls in Los Angeles, a lot of stop and go and idling.

LOL! Come drive in NYC if you think city driving in LA is bad.

I typically get about 22 MPG in driving that is entirely in city-like traffic mostly in the lower gears with an A/T. On the hwy it's closer to 30 MPG.

But mine's a 'vert that's driven only in summer, and always with the top down, unless it's raining.
