The best I have had on a trip was 108 mpg but it was ideal conditions and lowish speeds.

That's near as good as the 109mpg I got when I rolled the car down from the ramps last night.  ;D

This is the trip that the figure was achieved over. I used a ScanGauge, which computes the mpg from the fuel fed to the injectors and the mileage covered. I reset it as the video starts and it returned the figure on the display at the end. I was right into hypermiling at the time. The best I ever got, top-up to top-up, was a calculated 70.9 mpg in ideal summer conditions. I always kept my tyre pressures at 35 psi front and rear and checked them weekly.

A vision of how the roads will look everywhere from 2030  :(

My jazz runs 100% on bioethanol on warm days (about 3/4 of the year) and 60% in winter.

I've got the engine light on everytime, and I believe it's because the ECU gets crazy because of the mixture, but as soon as I'll fill up the tank with unleaded, it goes away.

Been driving like this for about 8 years now, no issue so far and it's way cheaper on the fuel station

Of course the car is a little bit more of a guzzler under alcohol, and I will do about 500km with a tank!

It used to be very interesting to run on bioethanol a few years back, when it was only 0.20c per liter, but since covid and all the fuel price madness, somehow it went up to 0.70-80c per liter which is crazy...
