Prius 2012 Fuel Economy

[starazam]

Recently I purchased Prius 2012 model 1800cc, Millage 121000 KM. Already have changed Oil and Oil Filter from Toyota Motors.

I traveled near 200 KM from Fsd to LHR. It gave me 20/L average on meter.

My questions are:

1. Is it what I should expect? i.e 20/L on Motorway, with No AC.
2. If it should be better, like I see people claim more 24/L. What can be issue?
3. Best mechanics in Lahore/FSD for Prius?

Thanks.

On motorway, it will give you fuel economy like 20km/l. Within city it will give you better mileage like upto 25-26 km/l, due to regular braking and slower speeds, the car gets more chances of getting driven on battery power, hence better mileage.

Nothing’s wrong with your car. It’s perfect, next time fill 32psi air in tyre after driving at least 3-4kms.

20 is hard to attain, 16-18 tops is Prius economy @Naweed

Thanks guys, was curious whether or not batteries are in good condition. So I should expect 23/24 in local drive? I will check local economy, then update here.

Hi,

I just bought Prius GS 2012 recently which is giving fuel average of 13km per liter. Any advise if it’s normal or can be improved??

Thanks.

My experience of last 6 Month says,
If I travel on highway 100-120 km I get 21/22 km/hour.
If I travel local 60-70 km, I get best average 23/24/hour.
If I travel in rushy areas, 20-30 or max 40. I get worst average. 14/15/16.

So I think it depends upon how you place your feet on accelerator and how much speed you maintain during travel.

If you are not getting same kind of results, you should get your Battery cooling system serviced. That may change results for you. Its summer start, May be I will also do same just to make sure, batteries are good.

Try using ECO Mode Since GS variants r tuned differently with more responsive throttle, imo.

Guys I have recently purchased Prius G Sports 2012 model, done almost 82000 kmx... It is giving me 12 kms/ltrs in city and on highway the meter showed maximum of 13.1 km/l...

I dnt understand what is wrong with it, can anyone help?

[izghan.shaikh]

Bro u mentioned the milage as KM/h, but this is not the fuel average, it is basically the average speed which is shown, milage is shown as km/l...

Check your oxygen sensor or change your car plugs

[abubakartahir94]

Get your catalytic converter checked

[starazam]

Aoa, Does any body know best Prius workshop/person to check these fuel issues? in Lahore or in Faisalabad.

[abubakartahir94]

I don't have very good experience in Faisalabad about the workshops..
In lahore you can find good people
Pak auto is one the best auto workshop

[umarmuslim]

those are really horrible KMPLs

get it checked thoroughly

wassalaam

Get catalytic converor cleaned from motorclean Lahore.
Change engine oil to 5w30 grade. (Recommended on the basis of odometer reading)
Change transmission fluid. Do not open pan. Drain it in 4L bottle and refill same amount of oil.
Get battery cooling system cleaned.
Change fuel filter assembly.
Change engine plugs.
Clean throttle body.
If you have already done any service in this year than ignore that.
