#28 of 95 Gas mileage by newquestcanuck Mar 06, 2006 (8:42 pm)
Ok my car just passed 600KM, I have only filled it once, and now I am just over 200KM on my trip after my first fill and I am wondering ifI am going to get much over 400KM per tank? Does my engine need to be 'broken' in more? Will I get over 500 or maybe 600KM per tank? I know it depends on the kind of driving you do city vs hwy.

Replying to: newquestcanuck (Mar 06, 2006 8:42 pm) So far my Kia Rio as 950km and the best i did up to now with a tank is 410km it was my first 400km and now i am just over 150km on my present trip and my fuel gage is just below the 3/4 mark so maybe i will do more this time.

Rio5, after 2,900 miles averaging 28.1 MPG of mixed driving w/ Max AC on at all times. Just to compare, our 2006.5 Optima LX after 905 miles is averaging 20.6, not even close to the 34 hwy and 24 city that the sticker suggests.

Replying to: riomike (Mar 13, 2006 5:27 am) When your Rio5 had just 1000 miles was it getting 28.1 MPG or was it worst? did the MPG get better with time? Mine as 800 miles on it right now and i am averaging about 25 MPG without AC on but i have the heater on. Replies to this message: riomike (Mar 13, 2006 8:05 pm) lightout (Mar 14, 2006 5:18 am)

Replying to: lightout (Mar 13, 2006 5:56 am) I was always getting between 25-31 MPG, I think the worst ever was in the first or second week when I did mostly city driving and got 24.5 MPG. Replies to this message: lightout (Mar 14, 2006 5:18 am)

#34 of 95 Gas Mileage by trgbassguy Apr 23, 2006 (10:58 pm)
I'm looking around at some new cars and I'm very interested in the Rio5. Now the site for the automatic says it's 29/38. So an average of 33.5 What are people actually getting is my question.

Replying to: trgbassguy (Apr 23, 2006 10:58 pm) I just turned 3k on my Rio5-AT. I'm getting about 26mpg. That's mostly city driving...ALOT of stop and go. Still haven't had a chance to put it on the road for a full tank so can't give you highway results.

Replying to: mwrobe1 (Apr 26, 2006 8:35 am) Lookin' pretty good so far! I'll post mine here and the other place tonight as my up-to-date .xls is on my home network. Just did a road trip for work today and re-filled the tank, got 36.12mpg!
