The gas mileage measure method I got from a local friend is that fullfill the gas tank each time, put down the mileage and gas volume(litre) filled in, then/ q5 }+ @. i' B8 a6 v
The gas mileage = (next time mileage - previous time mileage) /(next time filled gas volume) ( W1 I) D% _; L$ `
After convent to MPG(mile per gallon), the result I got is 26 MPG 8 W9 h! m' L* J" K$ ^7 g 7 N6 _( J+ W) X$ h+ `9 ^( O# sOfficial gas mileage is MPG (City/Hwy) 4 cyl 24/33 v6 21/29 2 ?( V!
