Further to your recent correspondence about poor mpg experienced by owners of Hyundai i10s, like others I am unable to obtain anywhere near the advertised mpg. Since last September when I purchased the car new have recorded average figures of only 46 mpg extra urban and 38.5 urban. I reckon that I can squeeze as much out of a gallon as anyone and I am disappointed to say the least.

Real MPG enables you to register the fuel economy you are actually getting against your make and model of car, its engine and type of transmission.
Every time you enter an average consumption figure against your car, the overall average automatically adjusts to reflect it.
