Right outside my house, there's a short downhill section with a right-hander at the bottom of the hill. Sometimes I kill my engine there; the car is so light it makes no difference when you're going at a moderate speed.

Top Gear PH has posted an article about why they got the worst fuel economy of the competition, and I ain't buying it.
Source: http://www.topgear.com.ph/news/indus...-world-drivingWhen the results were announced, we learned we had done a "measly" 14.3km/L (33.6 mpg US =
7.0 L/100 km), the worst of the five teams in the manual-transmission category. The winner in our category--believe it or not--did 33.6km/L. We leave it up to you to determine whether that is a credible figure under real-world driving conditions.
Our team, in other words, had the worst fuel-efficiency performance among all teams regardless of the type of transmission. Which makes me want to ask these questions...
With an average speed of 60-70 km/h (~37-43 mph) and a manual transmission, there is simply NO WAY they could have gotten such crappy mileage unless they were driving around in 2nd gear most of the time!
I still suspect they were driving like fools just to see how low a number they could get.

That, or they were running 15psi on all tyres. I get 22km/L easy cruising that sort of speed, without trying, with the aircon on. I doubt the G4 would be much worse than that.

Very nice. Especially with A/C on.
Translation for international audience ...
26 km/L = 3.4 L/100 km = 61 mpg (US) = 74 mpg (Imp)
22 km/L = 4.6 L/100 km = 52 mpg (US) = 62 mpg (Imp)
