Fuel consumption for Toyota Picnic
-
My friend recently bought a new 2.0 VVTi picnic, the fuel consumption is very high, at 7-8 km/liter. It is almost like the old volvo or jag, does anyone else have any idea of the average km/liter for this model?
Spoke to the technician, and he told him to drive slowly and do not stop so frequently...........like we don't know how to drive.
Any info regarding the fuel consumption will be appreciated.
The salesman told us it is about 10-11 km/litre before he booked the car, but the discrepancy is too hugh.... -

some of them give poor service. -
I am driving TOYOTA WISH 1.8A (7 Seaters). Fuel consumption is above 12 km/liter. This was one of the reason for WISH instead of PICNIC.

dun stop so frequently? hard.... -
actually alot of s'porean drivers hit the accelerator hard once the light turns green.. ifyou try letting the car gradually pick up speed instead of try to be the first one off at the lights, you'll see alot of improvement...Originally posted by Nothingie:drive slowly, can....

by the way, i always try to be among the last to start off.. practical reasons, coz if any cars in the cross-directions beat the red lights, that first guy who cheong when the light turns green will be the one who kenah... -
The salesman still insist that the new engine is more fuel efficient. If 8-9 km/litre, mind as well buy Hyundai Trajet.
The previous model can do 11 km/l, how can new one do 30% worst. Cannot accept this fact, not from Toyota. Must go talk to the GM, misrepresentation is a con job.
