Is 11. L/100km good?
If a car uses eight to 12 litres of gas for every 100 kilometres, that’s pretty good. This usually fits most medium-sized SUVs and some lighter trucks. Cars that use 12 to 14 litres for every 100 kilometres are average—not too bad, not too great. This is what you’d expect from bigger SUVs and trucks. Anything under eight L/100km is excellent. If a car uses eight to 12 litres of gas for every 100 kilometres, that’s pretty good. This usually fits most medium-sized SUVs and some lighter trucks. Cars that use 12 to 14 litres for every 100 kilometres are average—not too bad, not too great.At Drive, fuel efficiency ratings between 7–10. L/100km are generally seen as acceptable, but this isn’t definitive as some vehicles could exceed this fuel consumption range depending on whether a driver uses the car for different situations like off-roading, urban/freeway driving, and towing etc.If a vehicle you are looking at purchasing has an indicated fuel economy of 8l/100km, everyday driving is probably more likely to be around 10l/100km (this is my experience, after driving and reviewing over 400 cars since 2007).
How many litres is good fuel economy?
The less litres used, the better the fuel economy. Good fuel economy is generally considered as anything below about six litres per 100 kilometres, with bad fuel economy being anything over around 12 litres per 100 kilometres. A good MPG is one that allows you to cover a good distance on the least amount of fuel. A good fuel consumption figure for a used car is around 40-60mpg. Cars that can achieve 40mpg are likely to help you keep fuel costs low, and anything above this is even more impressive.Small: 25 to 32 MPG is good. Midsize: 20 to 28 MPG is decent. Full-size: 15 to 22 MPG is typical.The idea of good gas mileage is relative, based on the type of vehicle being driven. For example, if you are looking at full-size trucks, one that gets 20 mpg on the highway is pretty good, but if you found a small passenger car that gets 20 mpg on the highway, that’d be pretty bad.
