Hi HypermilerAX,
I have been following up your FE figures on spritmonitor.de for a long time. Congratulation for your result.
Yes I read about the 1360ccm engine that is less reliable but the 1527ccm engine is much better.
My next car will be an AX, presently I drive a Volvo 244 with a diesel engine (2383ccm, more accurately after engine rebuilt: 2414ccm). I usualy measure 4,6L/100km on steady 80km/h. My car weight is 1360kg so I hope I will be able to reach the 2.7-2.6L with my future AX.
I estimated this figure on the base of a Hungarian used car test in which the old Citroen was compared with the new Mazda 2. The AX (1360ccm) won with 2,99L/100km. The test consisted of city, road and highway drive.
Keep us informed about your further results.
