Hello,

thanks for the praise

I try my best. The Polo needs currently 4,4l/100km super fuel (determined over 20000km), so the driving parameters are optimised.

Next gedgets:
-wing in front of the windshield wipers
-diffusor/underbelly in the rear
-closed wheel boxes (rear)

Greetings,

Patrick

Good start.
3L is an ambitious goal though.

Time to shoot for 2L.

If it is easy enough, try removing the wind shield wipers and keeping the drivers wiper/ wrench in the car for rainy days ^

Also: your garage says 680lbs for the car weight. I assume this is kilos?
