Anything under eight L/100km is excellent. If a car uses eight to 12 litres of gas for every 100 kilometres, that’s pretty good. This usually fits most medium-sized SUVs and some lighter trucks. Cars that use 12 to 14 litres for every 100 kilometres are average—not too bad, not too great. Most cars, vans, pickup trucks and SUVs are most fuel-efficient when they’re travelling between 50 and 80 km per hour. Above this speed zone, vehicles use increasingly more fuel the faster they go. For example, at 120 km per hour, a vehicle uses about 20% more fuel than at 100 km per hour.Generally, cars are most efficient at 45-60mph, so stick to the speed limit because faster driving wastes fuel.
Is 60,000 km a lot for a car?
A 3-year-old car with around 45,000 to 60,000 kilometers would be considered low to average mileage. A 5-year-old car with about 75,000 to 100,000 kilometers is within a good range for most buyers. So, what’s considered high mileage? Traditionally, the benchmark has been around 100,000 miles. But thanks to better engineering and longer-lasting parts, many modern vehicles can easily reach 200,000 miles with proper care.
