hi, Just came back from Malaysia (SG - Kuantan - Cameron Highland - SG). Total journey = 1410km, Total petrol = 120L, 11+ km per Liter. Drive hard, rev when overtaking rpm hit 5 -6k. On NS highway, max speed 180, ave speed 130 - 160 km. Will post the pic later. Stay tune. ;D wo piang bro, you drive at 180km/h, i salute you man. anyway, your FC is really really bad leh. only 11km per litre. must be your rpm of 5-6 causing the over burning. you driving auto or manual? Rio rides... Hi, i'm driving 1.4A with H&R spring & 205/45/16 tyre. Very stable at high speed and cornering. Even I drive on SG road my FC about 10+ only. So with hard drive I got 11+ should be alright.

So with hard drive I got 11+ should be alright. Rio Bro, Check this out. Brother Rickoes drive in sg with 10+ Fc. with hard driving 11+ FC. So likely our design is not so on just be light footed and spoken and advice by many many sharer. But alike bro Alson118 said also. light or hard also 11+ FC. So why so bother with FC now since some have offer to share with hard driving still achieve same FC. Enjoy your ride and get the best satisfaction with your driving pleasure. Our Rio really can perform well. i did about 15.7km/l in my last pump. discounted many controversy opinion about how it ws pump till. al least with 14.5 to 15km( i think) is what i have achieve. Till date, i really enjoy riding this Rio without any dis-satisfaction. Rio rides again....

I've been getting 15km/l constantly for my Rio 1.4L (M). It really depends on your driving methods.

my fc also very bad... only abt 9.5+/- really bad. but when i travel to ipoh with ave 120-130, FC super solid abt 16-17km/l unlike daniel... had tried different ave of 130-140, and fc gotton worst... wonder is it that our rio is better perform at ave of 120... anyway, ok to rev in malaysia lah... petrol cheap cheap mah. but when reach sg... aiyoh,... even no rev also abt 9.5. guess my home to work got too much traffic liao...

Bro Keanula yours seems to be best or optimize performance at 120-130km with that RPM on your dial. In addition, your modification also play a critical part to you low RPM or high RPM optimization. you have to continuous watch your dial to have a good understanding to your car performance. Hope it will improve your FC is due diligence. like i say, mine is simple modification. drive 75% highway, 25% city, average speed in SG at 100-110km. at times, 120km. Rio rides......

I got about 12km/l initially.....but after 15k....I can managed only 10km/l.....not sure what happen but I noticed this drop after my last servicing at Leng Kee.....dont know they got touch my engine mapping or not....my indling speed seems faster than before bro dxyong hmmmm......your idiling RPM definitely play a critical part to your FC if you happen to sit and wait a lot in the car or stuck in traffic. mine is approx.600 without aircon and 700 with aircon. no strong vibration with such low idliling. me also very suprised, actually, very happy nothing is change till now especially FC. I do not go back to servicing but do outside due to cost alone. maybe they may have plug something inside your ECU to calibrate your RPM to optimize your performance. Rio rides....

"safety first"... cheers...

Rio rides...... bro daniellyc, i had not done any performace mod to my ride yet... btw can u share me your simple mod... Bro Keanula mine is done with SJ-CAI(Cold air intake), 8 points grounding(in-short is rtn all static energy produce back to battery), heat shield protection on air-intake box(engineering proven to lower air intake by 1-2 degrees, creating better combustion) and shortening the air intake-knee level(normal above the radiator). Cost me $350.00 at that time by whitesnail AKA Jason. I have greatly increase my FC as from previous of approx 12-13km/l-mine is 1.4M) At 2.5RPM, power will surge better. So typically, mine is mid torque btw 2.5 to 3KRPM. you should try modification bit by bit if you are really keen to improve either performance or FC. Thereafter, you should be clear of what you wanted for your car. Do come and join the group for the 26th July MRT feature this month. There are a lot of MOBSTER,opss.... i mean RIOSTER there to give better and comprehensive guide to your liking. Do hope to see you there. Rio rides........

FC topic gotten more draggy due to petrol hike.. haiz... if petrol is cheap cheap like say 50cts/L. I tink alot will be talking abt stuffs that increase FC to give POWER & SPEED!!! anyway, me also normally 13-14km/L for an auto ride.. so quite good liao lar.. somemore we only four spark plugs nia =)

aiyo..just drive happily....
this topic will go on forever...but if we cun achieve, take it easy... i used to bother by alot... but i now i jus drive happily lor.... u chase n chase n chase n chase other ppl fc but can never rch..then how? sell away? we never know how others drive or calculate their fc.... some maybe hv correct way of calculation, some may hv wrong calculation as well... u never know how true is it...
even thou its the same model that we are driving, but i can say not all Rios function the same... some got good fc (u chase), some absorber spoilt faster (u wonder), some air con very cold (some complain), some air con not cold at all (some irritated), some steering wheel got problem (some grumble).... no car can be perfectly fine w no problem....
just enjoy the drive...
Rio power 18km/L
