Calculating fuel economy
1. Fill the tank completely and
record the initial odometer
reading.
2. Each time you fill the tank,
record the amount of fuel added
(in liters or gallons).
3. After at least three to five fuel
tank fill-ups, fill the fuel tank and
record the final odometer reading.
Keep a record for at least one
month. This will provide an
accurate estimate of the vehicle's
fuel economy.
4. Use one of the following
equations to calculate fuel
economy:
Liters used x 1004Total
kilometers travelled
Total miles travelled4Total
gallons used
The fuel economy figures provided
by the Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) and Transport
Canada (TC) are obtained from
laboratory tests under simulated
road conditions and may not
reflect actual road conditions or
individual driving styles. The EPA
fuel economy estimate is not a
guarantee, but a guideline of
projected fuel economy.
