It's mpg in non-American version and backward, liter per kilometer.

I was only being facetious.

I know Canada's system of measurement, however I can't quickly convert it in my head. Most Americans can't since we don't normally use kilometers. And the only common application for liters that we use is for soda.

What's "pop"?

Again, I'm kidding. It's soda over here. "Pop" sounds ridiculous to me. No offense.

And those MPG differences are remarkable considering they are the same class of car. Most mid-size to full size cars beat the Aveo's numbers.

different age in engine tech between the aveo and the yaris, generally.

i grew up in niagara falls and watched a lot of american tv growing up (as we never had cable) so im bilingual w/ the US jargon
