There are a lot of factors affecting fuel consumption. Driving speed, traffic condition, temperature, road inclination, tire condition, laden weight, driver, etc. So what engineers did is to make a standard procedure on how to measure fuel consumption. The EU Combined Cycle test is one of them. This standard is for testing the fuel consumption of all cars sold in Europe using the same metrology process - meaning, all conditions are the same and only the car is different.
This standard was developed to avoid scenarios like those in comedy movies where the swimming pool is "lampas tao" then someone jumps in only to find out the pool is shallow and the person saying "lampas tao" is a midget.
So let's look at the fuel consumption of 2 cars I personally like using the same exact procedure - the EU Combined Cycle test:
Honda Jazz A/T: 14.9 Km / L (via)
Mitsubishi Mirage CVT: 21 Km/L
In the real world where you do not have an EU Combined Cycle test bed, you will get lower FC numbers. But the Mirage will still have better FC compared to the Jazz.

December 6th, 2012 08:33 AM #3235They were not lying about getting 21km/l under EU cycle but it was misleading. Ang point lang is kung ang testing nila for the 21km/l was performed in a near perfect environment then hinde tama naman na yun ang selling point nila. Kaya ang daming nagrereklamo sa FC kasi sila mismo ang nagtaas ng expectation.
P.S. Sa buhok ni Kris, yes it is false advertising. Di naman lumabot yung buhok nya sa shampoo pero sa kung ano-anong hair treatment ang ginawa nila yet they claim dahil sa shampoo yun.

I don't think 21km/li is *false advertising*. You can do that on long drives and using some hypermiling techniques. ;)
I suggest that the guys here take your FC readings (not the MID reading) multiple times so we can get the baseline average.
Anyway, enjoy the car! ;)
OT: What I can't stand in this thread is the whining about this and that. Get a freaking Prius! (or an underbone bike)
As expected, in response to Tesla’s entry into the Philippines market, Ford will be bringing in the...
