Toyota

What is the fuel consumptions in toyota yaris? mine is 8-9 km/l semiurban. i feel its low for 1300cc. it has done 3500km. what can be done to improve the fuel economy? (i have heard that toyota corolla/vios does about 12-14km/l semi urban. thanks.

That is awfully much... that s around 11.5l/100km... that d be normal for a bmw 530i (with 231hp!) but surely not for such a little car, there must be sth wrong with it or you re driving at the maximum rpms all the time... i doubt that it s possible to get a yaris 1.3 to consume that much... even if you re spending 80% of the time in traffic jams, it should be hard to get it to such an immense fuel consumption.the consumption should be around 6l/100km (so around 16.5km/l). i harldly can imagine that you manage to push the consumption to overwhelming 11.5l/100km...even if sth is very wrong with your way to drive.even if sth was very wrong with the fuel injection and the combustion, it is impossible to push a 1300ccm car to consume 11.5l/100km. the only thing i could think of is that you re walking the car without any oil, then the fuel consumption can raise a lot but you d have recognized that. or maybe someone is constantly stealing your fuel..
