I have to go uphill every day for like 9-10km. This influences my over all fuel efficiency a lot.

 

There is no compensation on the downhill way back?

Probably its still also the Lupo Tires? 

Lupo has 5% smaller tires and bigger maf readings so it should respond very differently. Theoretically better acceleration... and maybe better fuel efficiency because of this...but it looses on aero drag so :)) myeah

When downhill i do not drive in eco because it coasts and consumption is higher than when car is in gear. 

Downhill i get 1l/100 and uphill around 10-12...so that's why my over all is closer to 5.5. 

I must make a longer trip ...maybe 100km to see what are the readings now. 

It would be so....crazy ...if this really has such a big influence....

In think that makes a big difference, long distance it should be much less, if you do not drive over 120 kmh. Most of the users here are long distance drivers. I have an overall consumption from 3,2 with 145 and 3,5 with 165, bit when in drive around just 15 minutes in the city. With traffic, i get 5,5 liters too.

 

The 165 are what kind of tires?

 

They're are very fuel efficient 165er in the market, Hancock kinergy eco or Conti Eco contact , that also makes a big difference. Some users say, there are not very safe, but I am happy with the Hancook.

I did not want to sell a kidney for it:)). I have falken sincera sn832A eco run on it now. Decent price and decent quality so far. It was 30-40% cheaper when i bought them than today. 

It says B in consumption...better than the C of ectopia's:))

Total wheel weight is less than 1 kg extra (compared to original magnesium with old ecopias) so In theory it should not make such a big difference.

2,5 at fuel economy is good, Kinergy eco has 1,7, but i think that it ist not such a major difference

Funny on newer test it has B for rolling resistance...mine are 2023 so the test might have changed...in fact for the class B is the best. There is not A anymore for this size.
