When I first got my car, the government Energy Guide rated the vehicle as ~10km/L. I was getting a little better than that until I lent my car to two people when I was out of town for a couple months. In fact, a long highway trip that inaugural summer was way better than advertised! Last time I checked, the Scion website/Energy Guide advertises ~9km/L. I've been get EPA numbers for a year and a half now.


It is likely winter gas. Another possibility is 2 or 3 weeks ago, my low fuel light went on, I immediately drove maybe half a kilometer to fill-up and the pump said 42.5L after filling up. I could never recall the light going on and being more or less than half a liter from 40L to fill. Strangely enough I couldnt remember when I paid so little for gas.
