    Not quite stock KL AWD, my economy is ****house. In the city(where I live) I get 15-18km/100. On the open road 10 or less. Im not really that upset though, I knew it wouldnt be great on fuel when i bought it.

    TL ES 5 speed manual. All "city driving" so to speak. Consistently get low 12L/100km around town, low 8s on highway trips.

    Student with poor paying job, so it's driven like a wimp as much as possible for the "economy", I ignore the fuel economy when I'm feeling enthusiastic (up to 18l/100 in a particular week) so I guess that is the point of the poll.

    3.5 TH Sports. No engine or exhaust mods. Stereo gear is the only weight. With all city driving and a mixure of driving hard and soft I get about 10.5l/100kms which is about 550-600ltrs to the tank.
    Oh and thats running Premium Unleaded all the time.

    Aiiii - the burden of AWD in the city , i feel that - I too avg about 450 - 500 ks per tank around town or 600+ on the open road, if I run it dry - however it rearly gets more than 50L used before it is refilled...
