How are people affording to drive cars with these fuel efficiency figures?!
Saw this conversation on a Kylaq community. I'm not a Kylaq owner, don't know how it came in my timeline but how are middle class people affording to drive cars with fuel efficiency this low? I mean no offense but if anyone's loaded they are not going buy a Kylaq and the likes.
For context, I drive a petrol i20 in Bangalore and I drive around 20 kms one way, 4 days to office. It's a manual plus I'm driving for a long time, so I'm able to extract 10 - 13/14 depending on the day on an average without being too slow on the road, but even then I feel this is unsustainable considering the fuel costs.
I have another car that wife drives, but that's a diesel 4x4 and anyway her running isn't much and it's mostly empty roads for her, so fuel efficiency is pretty good there.
No offense to VW owners btw, they are good cars. This was just a thought.
