Interesting vehicle. It looks a lot like the newer Scion xB. What kind of mileage do you get with it and how large is the engine?

[avaxis]

1.3L engine, so thats almost 1300cc. its somewhat similar to the Toyota bB, which is like xB's distant cousin.

i got about 12.8km/L prior. did some modifications and some change in driving behavior, its doing about 14.3km/L now. Both figures are in the city with some traffic.

thinking of getting the Scangauge II

I found the Perodua website :

Perodua : Perodua Myvi - It's A Passion

It's fun to look at all the other Perodua cars. I think you got the coolest looking one.

thanks for the compliment. i used to get 12.8km/l, manufacturer quotes 13.5km/l. i recently modified my car, changed the entire exhaust system. its a little loud due to the straight flow design, and i have to keep a light foot to keep it quiet (somehow it gets louder due to throttle position).

my last tank i got 14.3km/l. the most recent tank i got 15km/l. same roads and same traffic conditions (go to work everyday).
