Average Fuel Consumption
I am concerned that my car is not running as economically as it should and down here as in many places outside the US high fuel prices make this a very real issue. Others may have the same doubts.
It would be of value if we could record a reliable figure for average fuel consumption in respect of the SVX for say three classes of driving. City commuting in fairly heavy traffic, highway cruising at moderate speed, and maximum performance driving on open give and take roads. Accurate figures will be essential and those who have taken reliable measurements should post their results so that averages can be established. When quoting gallons it will be important to stipulate US or imperial. I have seen many figures quoted in posts to the extent that the true facts have become rather confused so that I am sure the exercise will be of considerable interest and well worth while. Could someone also assist with a conversion factor for US gallons to litres (liters) as I have been unable to turn up a figure which I can be sure of. I hope a range of figures will be forthcoming so that accurate averages of use to all can be calculated.
