Honda civic fuel consumption

[rollodxb]

Hi guys,

My 2009 Honda civic in Dubai gives an average of around 10 kms / litre which I believe is very low for a 1.8 lt engine.  Can anyone who has a civic please tell me their fuel economy ?

The car does not have any problems at all and has been serviced properly.

 

thanks.

Combined fuel consumption is supposed to be 6.9 km per litre. 

I think you’re doing well get 10 in city driving. In the real world 1.8 isn’t a small engine (not dubai where everything has a v8 and 2.0 seems small), I would be looking for something a lot smaller for fuel economy. 1.3 is plenty big enough for city driving.
