Hallo!

Hello, noxman -

I have not made any videos, but have recorded fuel consumption on a level road at various speeds in cars with a 1.0L and 1.8L gasoline engines and manual transmissions.

See http://ecomodder.com/forum/showthrea...atic-6710.html

and Speed kills: testing MPH vs. MPG in top gear - MetroMPG.com

These were both done on level roads. Readings were not "instant", but averages taken over a distance > 1km, and then repeated in the return direction.

Other EcoModder members have done similar runs with other vehicles.

I have also recorded data for a 3.5L V6 (automatic transmission) at various speeds, but haven't posted the results yet.

Hi MetroMPG!

Thank you for answering and helpfully links.
My record average consumption to work was 4.5/100 km at 80km distance.
Road was broken terrain with more city traffic (50km/h) and upgrade road, downhill grade.

Interesting was, that wasn't so economy drive like another time.

Now in winter here i have average 6l/100km with another 3 people in car.
