Hi guys, what's the fuel consumption for kia picanto automatic in city?
I own a AT Picanto and in my 8 months ownership have driven it close to 25K and all around PK. I have a very light foot to paddle.
1) It's a comfortable car but not comfortable to be driven at 120km/h speed.
2) You get about the average of 13-15km/l with 120-130km/h speed.
3) In city traffic drive, it doesn't give you more than 10km/l average.
I've not driven other AT Picanto long enough to comment on fuel average but in my opinion, my car is not giving optimum fuel average considering the engine size, technology and marketed fuel average.
I own a manual Picanto with 15k on odometer, it used to give me 16 kmpl in city and 19 on motorway with AC back in summers. Now it's been 1.5 months that AC is turned off and the fuel average has increased to 18.5 in city. Didn't travel on motorway with AC off till now, so can't comment on it. My rpm when gear changed is b/w 2.5k to 3k. Fuel average upto 1 kmpl increases if you change gear before 2.5k and keep a light foot on the paddle (experimented it).
