Your 1000 litres claim is an out right lie. Not a mistake. And you know it. Shame!
Hi James,
Day to day, I drive an aging (10 year old) gas guzzling SUV and with my uphill/downhill style in-city commute I have unfortunately calculated that it does consume around 1/3rd of a tank each week. My vehicle has a 60L tank.
Hi Matt,
Here we go:
3km each way = 6km round trip per day
365 days a year = 2190 km per year (assuming no days off, no snow and no rain days)
2190km divided by 100 = 21.9
1000 litres divided by 21.9 = 45.6 litres per 100km
A H1 Hummer gets 26.13 litres per 100km in the city. So you are telling the public that your vehicle gets significantly worse fuel economy than a H1 Hummer? And remember I calculated your fuel economy at 365 trips a year.
If you still insist that you are correct on your fuel economy, you have to admit that it in no way reflects an average drivers fuel economy. In light of this I believe adjusting your 1000 litres to something more representative of an average driver’s fuel economy is warranted. A 5 year old F150 might get around 17 litres per 100km city.
I was a bit harsh with my previous post. Perhaps you did mess up on your calculations but the error is large.
