Fuel Economy

[MC32852(R)01/96]
Fuel economy is an estimate of the efficiency of your vehicle
and can be calculated as Miles Per Gallon (MPG) or Liters Per
100 Kilometers (L/100K).
*
[MC32854(R)01/96]
To calculate fuel economy:
*
[MC32856(R)01/96]1.
Fill the tank completely and record the initial odometer
reading.
*
[MC32858(R)01/96]2.
Every time you buy fuel record the amount (in gallons or
liters) purchased.
*
[MC32860(R)01/96]3.
After at least three to five tankfuls, fill the fuel tank and
record the final odometer reading.
*
[MC32862(R)01/96]4.
Divide the total number of miles that you have driven by
the total number of gallons that your vehicle has used. In
metric, multiply the number of liters used by 100 and divide
the answer by the number of kilometers traveled. This will
give you the number of liters used per 100 km.
