Probably, but there are still improvements made/to come before the winter.
First of all, the 'winter grill' will heat up the engine quicker.
Secondly, I will put the car in the garage when it is getting cold again. I think there is a lot to be gained there. To heat up an engine from freezing temperatures or from room temperature should mean a big difference in fuel consumption?
Thirdly, the new lighter wheels and taller tires will make their appearance on the car in a few months.
Fourthly, I am currently looking into lowering the car ...
Baseline, the car simply needs adjustments to further reduce consumption. But that's why I'm hanging out on this website!
