Hardly, 4.25 l/100 km = 55 mpg city/83 hwy for a 1000 lb 700 cc car. mpg by French standard not EPA
But Vesta 2 was run from Bordeaux to Paris using only 1,94 l/100 km @ 100,9 km/h - that's 121 mp(US) @ 62.7 mph

Slowing down to 50 km/h or 31 mph , it used 1.6 L/100km or 147 mpg.

Imagine what it'd do with EFI and LRR tires.
