That is about 6.96 litres per 100 km, or 33.77 miles per US gallon, or 40.56 miles per Imp gallon, or 14.36 kms per litre Very close to my numbers Adriaan. Quite respectable considering your load although there are people who have done better(in varied conditions). It is a manual, right? Please keep on posting your numbers. I guess even as good as they are, they will improve. Last edited by swng; 04-04-2006 at 01:14 AM. |

I've now got about 5100km on my Yaris, mostly in the city now, and am still getting almost 800km per tank...20km/L on the highway. About 550-600 in the city.

the tank i currently have in my car seems to really be going good, the weather has been a lot warmer so maybe this makes a big difference,
i've travelled about 250 km (all city) on the top two bars, although that top bar is probably worth more than itself. i will post the mileage when i refill. |

for those in canada or care, i drove from toronto to montreal last weekend... 500 km on 28 liters. that's pretty good :) 95% highway.. started counting just outside of toronto past oshawa
*edit: i should also say that my average speed on highway was consistently 110km/h

That is 50+ mpg(imp)! I think that reflects the fact that you drove 95% highway. Good numbers anyway!

I'm at a little over 6,000 kms since November and I'm getting roughly 600kms per tank of mixed highway and city driving. That's also driving kind of hard. I could get better if I didn't have a lead foot. I usually drive about 120 - 130 accross the 407. I have to say I still love this car!!

For this tank, I have had a lot of city driving and have still achieved 146 km before losing my first fuel gauge bar and 222 km before losing the second.
I will be vacationing for about five weeks starting next week(Tue) and hence will most likely not be able to post. I hope fellow members can keep on posting their results on this thread. I am glad I have started it. Please help keep it alive! Wish you all well! Safe, happy and economical motoring!!! |

Thanks Ron. You get slightly more than 40.3 mpg(imp) or roughly 33.6 mpg(US). Your numbers are similar to mine. Considering that you have driven a lot in city traffic, the result is not bad. I guess yours is a standard shift, right?
I have just achieved 346 km with slightly more than half a tank(four fuel gauge bars remaining). A lot of city driving this time. I will be travelling on Tue and this is going to be a five week vacation. So, I may not be able to post results any more for the time being. I estimate that by the time I come back, many fellow members should already have broken in their engines and many good numbers would probably have been reported here. |

Yello All Yarisians.
Tank 3, 545KM's - 38L fed to Mighty Yaris... Auto Trans, driving like I stole it, 80 city / 20 highway... rolling hills for terrain - ~60 KM/H, and 110+ KM/H typically. I had noticed about 1/2 in to this tank that my tires were 3-5 lbs low (eep!) the effects are in the numbers... 1st tank = 7.3L/100 KM's or 39 MPG 2nd Tank = 6.7L/100 KM or 42 MPG 3rd Tank = 6.9L/100 KM or 40.5 MPG Cheers...

good stuff. Thanks for posting.
here's mine 510km / 35Litre.... It's 102.5 this morning around GTA. For those of you live around GTA, always fill your gas after 10:30pm before 12:00am midnight. that's when the price drop all the way from 90.5~92.5 for last few days.

Hello all. I just go mine on Saturday. So far on my first tank I've gotten 440Km, with 2 bars remaining. I think that's not too bad, considering I haven't broken her in. That's with 65/35 hwy/city driving. How far can I go on the last bar? Does it flash immediately?

yeah, it flashes right away, but you still have about 5 to 7 litres of fuel left on that last bar, maybe more
ask swng how far you can go on that last bar, he would be able to tell you |

Hi everyone,
I just filled up with 38.5L after going through my first tank in 542km. So, I guess that would be about 7.1L/100km. Not too bad for the first tank, I don't think. I'd say I drove about 25% in town, 75% highway. |

I was very intrigued by the Yaris Hatch and really wished I could have waited to get a new car till it came out but my aging Civic had other plans. However on to the core point Fuel Mileage.
I now have an 06 Acura RSX –S Type which by now it has about 12,000. I like the car, but feel a bit unsettled by the fuel mileage, I feel like a glutton drinking all this gas driving a “sporty car” with a surfeit of horsepower. However when I see people posting up mileage in the low 30’s I don’t feel so bad. What happened to serious economy? My old 93 Civic Si Hatch with over the course of 100,000+ Miles (94K-210K) would get 34 MPG day in and day out and I spanked her like the bad girl she was. Highway cruise speeds in the mid 80’s (that’s MPH not KPH), hell I have even seen high 30’s on extended cruise control highway trips. I was hoping for easy 35 MPG+ from a Yaris. Not to lose horsepower and fit and finish (VS the old SI) and struggle to get the same MPG. Just for comparison sake after I started monitoring this thread I decided to track my RSX’s “gluttonous” fuel use. I get a surprising 28MPG in 90% around town driving. Plenty of visits to the fun side of the tach with no effort to drive for mileage and quite frankly I am usually in a hurry and don’t waste time dawdling coming off of lights, and am bad about driving fast. I took the RSX for a multi hundred mile delinquent run in the mountain spending extended time in the 6-8.5K coming off corners pretty hard and only dropped to 26 MPG. That aside I am not happy getting sub 30MPG but to go to a Yaris and get only marginal economy improvements while taking a drastic hit on performance and vehicle dynamics quality just doesn’t make sense. I am hoping when more Yaris are being driven in the US and we start to get reports on US mileage numbers then we can get a better picture of what the Yaris is really capable of (this is not a slight on our northern neighbors, but I am unsure what sort of gas formulations they use compared to what I get down at the local jiffy mart fuel stop). So fellow southerners please report in those economy numbers. |
