Just got a second hand yaris with 20000km on it 3 weeks ago and the fuel consumption bothers me.

Mine can only go for 55km for the first bar. All in all i can go up to 300km before the fuel bar starts to blink, so thats around 9.5km/liter

This is all 100% city driving with lots of stops, and i dont even step on the pedal! (never reached 2500 RPM !!!)

Car has just been serviced by toyota and they claim that there is nothing wrong.

What can i do to improve efficiency? I was expecting at least 11 (Manila, Philippines driving)

State fuel efficiency in L/100km (not km/L)!

Even if just for your own benefit, it'll help w/ comparison purposes with others on here (which is what you would like to know, too, presumably, I assume).

We dont deal with kms per liter in Canada... but liters per 100 kms!

Anyways, just a helpful FYI.

EDIT:

But, 9.5 (kilometers / l) = 10.5263158 l/100km = 26.84 MPG (UK) = 22.35 MPG (US)


Which is definitely pretty poor. Yikes. :(
