Keep an eye on the trip computer during any test drive for a more
realistic economy figure, and ask the dealer to show you how to access this information if you're unsure.

Peter Kent: Carbon pricing in any form is a carbon tax, because to be a
realistic dollar
figure, it would get Canadians at the gas pump for example, and right across the
economy, but at the gas pump, it would get us to where Europeans are.
Some may point out that Mitsubishi once produced Lancer Evolutions with greater specific outputs, but realistically the cars are beyond comparison - the AMG not only produces impressive power, but does so with a three - year warranty, 12,500 - mile service intervals, and combined
economy of 40.9 mpg -
figures in the 30s are entirely
realistic.
We'll start with our own experiences first: The 1.2 - litre PureTech 110 gets an official combined
economy figure of 65.7 mpg, and in mixed driving we saw MPG in the high 40s, so mid-40s is a
realistic estimate and 50 - plus if you have a particularly light right foot.
Respective
economy / emissions
figures are 5.2 L / 100 km and 120g / km, although we recorded 6.5 L / 100 km, which is some way away but probably a more
realistic expectation.
It's also tough to match the
economy claim in the real world, with
figures in the sixes more
realistic during our time with the car.
