Mine is sucks... Every 3.5 days need to refuel. Averange distance per day (33km + 28km + 33km) x 3.5 = 329km. Driving like F1 Driver... Always tekan start from show room (Not bother to running-in) .. currently 1000++ km total milage. Maybe start driving in economy mode this coming August... will update my proper fuel consumptions...

Bro .. there is no economy mode for THP ....
I tried setting Limiter and Cruise .. but end up turning it off after a few minutes ... why bother .. just a few cents/km saved ... we buy THP for the fun, drive and speed in the first place. Better enjoy it rather than sulk the whole journey for a few cents ...

Haven't test the limiter, may have to put it on. The other day on highway, cars are hogging the right/fast lane going at 100 km/h only.. So I took the left lane and tekan. Overtook 6 cars and turn back out to the fast lane. Had a glance on my speedo and it was 170 and climbing.. Straight away release the accelerator, didn't feel that the car was going so fast.
