Hi SSIM...,
9 meters is 29.5 feet. The average car in Portugul is probably Prius sized, or about half that. And that distance is just too close. Even if your car had radar cruise control, what about the cars behind you?
I saw the remains of a Suzuki Samrai car that got squeezed between a 18 wheel truck and a large SUV. The paint was burned off, and the all the plastic burned away or melted. Needless to say the driver died.
3.2 l/100 km is quite good, about 73.5 mpg US. This is similar to what a 2nd Gen Prius can do in SHM mode on flat terrain above 65 deg F, without allot a wind.
