i can get about 12km per litre from my persona BL AT. which meant about 480km per 40 litres. 500km is do-able but both times i reached 500km, the engine will stall with about 5 litres left in the tank. now afraid to push anything further than 450km.

your persona meter never show how many liter per 100km meh?

my reading, the best is on 5.5liter per 100km (highway), 90km/h, rev at below 2.5k rpm

5.5 liter X RM1.80 = Rm9.90 per 100km

10 cent per 1km (roughly...)

My town driving = 6.6L/100km with rev around 4K rpm & moderate pick up kind of style driving. If highway driving 130-150kmh = 7.8L/100km. I'm driving a Manual Persona IAFM. My FC came down after I switch to fully sync 5W/40 oil & drop in washable airfilter. Before I was getting town drive = 7.6L/100km & 8.9L/100km highway, same driving style.

Since the fuel usage of Proton Persona is quite satisfying and nice.... between 6.6 - 8.5 L / 100km......


Do the fuel we pump in into our beloved Proton Persona affect to the Fuel Consumption?

Some ppl says Shell petrol is more saving ... and Esso/Mobil petrol is more gruzzling due to its petrol chemical content and its burning rate.

To professional brother out there... can advise us on this matter ma?

And what engine oil we should use to maintain the fuel consumption?


kindly advise the rookies like me .......... Thanks alot....
