i cant find the old thread.

but its just same old "how low can you make the fuel consumption?"

here's my take on it.

achieved with only year 2015, only performance intakes, NA engine with 39% efficiency.

1.304l/100km

that's less than my IRL 135cc daily motorbike....

btw that's is still not pushing it. i could get 76 or 77km/l

Equates to 1042L/100km. (and I'm using RON but I know the conversion to AKI)

lol nerd that thing must be belching a cloud of petrol smog so thick a single pass from that car alone would kill more people than all the dirty VW diesels in the world combined :lol:

i made something in the gallons per mile range once, game reports it as just 0.0MPG though

I've gotten 0.4 mpg from a badly tuned transmission on a 60s land barge. I've also got a very lightweight (below 700 kg) sports/track car that gets 100.1 mpg. It costs almost $100,000 but is still somewhat decent in the markets. It was in the high 70s for a couple of things until I used sliders to get it from about 85 mpg to that 100.1. I might have to post that one here.

100mpg-> 45 km/l

ehehehehe.
75km/l -> 144mpg


i really thought there would be someone that SURELY beats me on that fuel consumption.

I might have something with lower consumption than that. My 100.1 mpg one is a mid-engined car, using the smaller McLaren body, and using a 700 cc engine I made for another car. Top speed is about 190 km/h, and a 0-100 takes about 14 seconds. Maybe I should try a 500 cc engine and see how that goes ;)

Perhaps that's b/c (at least according to google) 100mpg -> 42.5km/l and 75km/l -> 176mpg? At least to US MPG, Imperial MPG is a lot more.

Its possible to beat you. I couldn't get my lil engine as efficient as yours using just performance intakes (I was .18% off efficiency...I was using different units, but it shouldn't change that), but no one said we couldn't use race intakes, right? I tried using the not-smart car body, but it comes out a bit too heavy so I switched over to the one you used. I still have an extra ~5kg on yours so if I could find where its at the economy might go up slightly. I thought it was perhaps fixtures, but that didn't do anything so pardon the lack of headlights. Anyway I got 180.5 US MPG or 76.7km/l. I'm sure someone can beat it too.

Damn, and I thought my economy was good...

...but I think this might be the lightest car ever made in Automation. It weighs less than a horse. Much less.
