Which driving habit consumes less petrol in 50 km expressway run?

I have Toyota Glanza, which has Suzuki 1.2-litre, 4-cylinder petrol engine. My query is regarding fuel consumption on a 50 km expressway stretch that comes in my route, considering the visits are occassional (1-2 times a month) and not daily. Which option should I select?

  1. 60 kmph cruise control (Gets 30kmpl on MID by doing this)

OR

  1. General driving fluctuating between 80-100 kmph (Gets around 20 kmpl on MID on doing this)

My Confusion : Option 1st have longer engine running time due to slower speed but it will be at lower and fixed rpm. Option 2nd, where engine running time would be shorter due to faster speeds but rpms will fluctuate and will have overall higher rpms.

Considering time is not a factor for me. So, which option will consume less fuel?

Which is cheaper? 56 kms(Toll Rs 0) in 110 mis or 73 kms (Toll Rs 115) in 85 mins

I go to meerut from delhi and I have 2 route options. I want to know which is more pocket-friendly considering (time is not money for me) so even if it takes 2 hours but it is easier on pocket so I will take that.

FYI: I have Toyota Glanza Petrol-manual and I drive light-foot, generally gets mileage around 19-20.

2 route options are:

  1. Via Meerut Road : It covers 56 kms in 110 minutes and have no toll.
  2. Via Delhi-Meerut Expressway : It covers 73 kms in 85 minutes and have to pay Rs 115 as toll.

So which is cheaper? My confusion arises because, the option-2 is 17kms longer and has toll of 115 but takes 25 mins less time so engine running time is less as compared to option-1.

If any automotive geeks can explain, how much more fuel does the Suzuki 1.2 L 4-cyl engine burn, in these extra 25 mins if I consider option-1 ?
