Gas Consumption on your SSS

Jusjred · Postby **Jusjred** » January 13th, 2010, 11:05 am

What kinda Gas Consumption are you guys getting on your Swift Sport?

chris1388 · Postby **chris1388** » January 13th, 2010, 11:46 am

I've heard from my frens with manual SSS that the gas consumption is a bit on the heavy side. If i drive my ignis sport "normal" a full tank of premium would give me about 380Kms till the light comes on. My friend with the SSS told me that he barely gets over 300Kms on a tank of premium. But then again it depends on how you drive.
When my foot gets heavy, which very often the ignis drinks gas :lol:

mine is auto, with mixed driving, highway and city. i get close to 400km per tank of premium and i have about 40 lbs of constant unnecessary weight in the trunk :roll:

this sounds about right.....the auto should be more fuel efficient than the manual ones

350 - 370 kms to a tank
Manual
Regular driving

about $155 in premium to full, so i usually put back in 38.75 litres

Tank capacity : 43 litres

38.75 / 350 - about 9 kms to a litre

1.5 - 525km to 105 super driving conservatively
normally get 420 to 90 super with normal driving :oops:

Seriously though, based on the dashboard meter thingy (check your owner's manual, you can use the button to adjust the consumption units)..........I averaged 27-28 mpg comfortably, with mixed highway and traffic driving on my former SSS. Keep in mind that the SSS runs with close ratios (think high revving).....and that is what limits the SSS's economy (perhaps the highest consumption of the 1.6L class locally), but makes it a zippy car.

Regular Swift on Super...good mileage there.

Swift Sports have noticeably higher gas consumption, and different gearing.....you really can't compare them (plus you cannot use super).

^^Yeah but your car is significantly faster....not only because it's lighter, but the IS's M15A is a more "hardcore" version to that in the regular 1.5 Swift.

Can't have your cake and eat it dude (most times)

:lol:

^^^ yup those figures are right pete that is some slow driving your speed limit is about 80 km because for me to get that figure 80 was mine

that rel hard to do. the ss is persistent in its plead for high revs to make it (and you) happy

chris1388 · Postby **chris1388** » January 18th, 2010, 8:28 pm

^^same as ignis sport..hence the reason i've failed countless times in that quest :lol:

Actually, no its really hard to keep my cool whilst tryin this but i consider it as a little experiment...after i'm satisfied with the results then i shall let my SSS be free.....lol

got her to 195 km/h. negotiated gasparillo southbound left bend at 170 and she remained glued to the road. handles like a dream.

everytime i try to cross 195, there's someone in my way :evil:

but i'm certain excess of 200 is easily attainable
