Gud tips

g8 yaar
i will follow ji heeeeeee.

Switch off the AC button when the car is cool enough. This applies to cars without climate control. If the car is equipped with automatic climate control, set the car to optimum temperatures to prevent the compressor from running for a long time

Amruth Ganesh LOL Even the ARAI certified mileage is lesser than that

what’s the meaning of carpool?

Akash Shetty go google it

Smartly use the AC means we should avoid keeping AC ON on signals,you can also keep AC power at min here… lower rpm lower AC…at higher rpm it doesn’t matter

thanks DWS for nice tips.

Even Better, Keep the Damn Rickshaws off the road, No congestion, No road rage, No frustrated Drivers, No Bottle necks, even the BEST drivers are very calm and better fuel average, I realised our problem really is Very High percentage of Idiots on the Street, and not an inadequate road infrastructure.

I try to switch off engine when stopping at a light or when not in use for more than 1 min. I try to avoid minimum use of AC. This can also help in saving some amount of fuel.

gud thinking g.

MY CITY GIVES 17-18 AVERAGE….

Bye Bicycle…. good exercise…. no petrol… no toll… no pollution…. no parking charges…

please give some tips for byke riders also…………………….

@ bicycle. Gud idea.

Abhi Jeet Yes… DEAR Abhi… Its100% True FACT!!!

I inform the Same Fact to My HONDA CITY Dealer…he also shocked….

Alsofrom My HONDA CITY , i got average of 19Km/Ltr for 750 Km of Run from PUNE to NAGPUR in HOT weather of MAY 2010.

But it can happen only if you

(1)put soft pressure on Accelerator.. pressurize the accelerator only…[Read more]

a fuel and money consuming honda is a myth!!! my city needs a servicing after 10000 kms and it cost less than my santro!!! and its a fact!!

same experience here…

My Honda City 2010 is more efficient than my Hyundai I10 (1.2 kappa) 2009…

From i10 i can get max. 17 km/ltr (with WIDER TYRE set)..

Its all depends upon the Engine’s Power to Weight Ratio, Tyres, Gear ratio, Aerodynamics, Suspensions etc. etc.

@Abhi Jeet,@Amruth Ganesh,@Ajay Srinivas Raghavan…

Did YOU ever have a chance to drive HONDA CITY i-vetec (NEW model)??

Dont confuse between Honda CITY and Honda CIVIC…

ARAI approved CITY for 16.6 Km/ltr

and CIVIC for 11.2 KM/Ltr.

And for your KIND INFORMATION, i will soon upload the Photo of my HONDA City’s Digital meter showing more…[Read more]

Carpool: if more than one persons daily travelling from same way than instead of using separate vehicle use one

interesting to read but very difficult to follow.

thanxs nice tips.

let me follow it……….

Best useful Tips.

I too get 17.5 kmpl sometimes from my honda city iv tec.

drivin at de speed of 40-50 wil give u gr8 milage…

Alto k10 owners are still, least worried..!!!

Hey… for bike owners… use better engine oils… timely change the oils and use high performance oils… they improve performance and better accelaration…. Maitain an optimum speed always while riding, for eg: for FZ or Fazer, you get 40+ only if u control and ride at speeds of 45 and 50…. 60 and above dips the efficiency….

And better, dont use performance kits and filters… they can drink the petrol sometimes that when you sometimes hit above 90 or above, the efficiency might be way below 20 sometimes…

24.6 kmpl on verna crdi 1.6- highway

29.3 kmpl on highway for my new Dzire VDi & 25.7 kmpl in city driving… following all the tips for fuel efficiency. Never drive above 80kmph.

Could u give me an idea about fuel injector cleaners. How to use them and their price?. Thanks in advance.

Swift Till date,Etios diesel cmng next month,Then of course Etios

Dude my vote is a bit out of league but I believe its quite practical.1. Indigo cs.. Power.. Space.. Comfort.. Mileage.. Light on pocket..You should definitely check it out.If space is a good concern then Swift is the most suck ass choice..

If mileage could be compromised a bit and you want a rugged vehicle then even Bolero is a great choice.I live in hills n I knw its a great performer where roads are seldom present.

Dude go for Swift Dzire VDi model or js wait a while for Etios Diesel…They both are value for money and it will worth ur every bucks….

u wont got all these in one bcs every manufacturer has its own specification…….if u wana hatch than go for SWIfT VDI….and not for INDIGO CS (A TAXI) otherwise go for dezire……2 seconds ago

If mileage could be compromised a bit and you want a rugged vehicle then even Bolero is a great choice.I live in hills n I knw its a great performer where roads are seldom present.

Go for Fiat Punto 90 HP. Take a test drive and then decide. If not go for Fabia. European cars are build with sence.

Fiat’s MJD is well built and has a combo of Power and mileage so you have choices of the New swift,Tata Vista,Fiat Punto,All are good performers and have sense.Indigo e-cs with CR4 engine is a good option and no one here knows about the real comfort in it.Its good unless you try that(my neigbour is very happy with his 6 month old vehicle & he…[Read more]

Check Figo…..it really rocks in all aspects.

go for i20 Magna and Sportz it betar,,,

Polo

Verito

iam really confuse thoughswift offers a better vfm and good engine backed by maruti cheap spares yet cheap image of maruti as a not so premium brand as there’s hardly any car frm maruti stable which can give them the high pointed rating in class.thn comes the polo vw badging gr8 build quality gr8 dynamics road presense and wow effectit can make u…[Read more]

swift vdi

7 lakhs..Well…in that case top end model is the best option…for you…

I would prefer Grande Punto..It’s very nice…except for the Fiat Tag…

Grand Punto 1.3 diesel Multijet is not a bad option although 1.4 fire is great….too…though its petrol..

Fiat Car’s are known for driving pleasure at even the worst conditions…So you can always…[Read more]

prefer maruti suzuki if u are not time barred.. Or else go with figo.. And also check etios, etios liva.. They r soon coming in diesel variant..

Manza PERIOD!

WHY MANZA.
Engine Specs = SX4,
Cabin Space = best, whale of space & legroom.
interiors = not bad at all.
maintenance = very economical.
fuel efficiency = 17/18 local, 21/22 highways.

In hatch bag car segment figo is the best option becoz it is value for money and performance and pricing is really amazing if u compare other cars in this segment.

FIAT punto

Tata indigo Manza
india’s most fuel efficient car

Punto

for driving pleasure go fr punto…. and fr overall requirements polo suits d most…

90HP Punto! No doubt about it!

no dought only swift.

Toyota etios diesel 1.4 d4d is coming this month the same engine of corolla altis diesel 1.4 d4d which is right now 15lacs plus but if its planned in etios it will be 7 lac’s bracket with a sedan car and not the hatch car.

and on the top of is etios is 20kpl plus mileage!

driving the nissan micra xv diesel for 1.5 months now. mileage will increase with more use.

1. Grande punto: good car but bad service and spares backup.
2. Polo: aged and unrefined diesel engine and not enough features or space to justify the price.
3. i20 sports: one of the best vfm cars in the market today but shld. make sure to get extended warranty as hyundai turbos fail sometimes, most powerful engine in this category.
4. Indica…[Read more]

MARUTI SWIFT IS THE BEST OPTION……

go for i20 Sportz versions.

prefer indigo manza…. in 7 lacs u vl get a big car…… what ever it may b big car is a bigcar……….

Undoubtedly Swift ..if u r prepared to wait!!

do you know that swift and dzire is zero on the point of view of safety..

new maruti swift zdi.

when u go for this in ur car?

I fully agree with you

manza, no doubt
