How We Tested the Mileage
We used a simple method: we filled the car’s fuel tank all the way up, drove for about 100km, and then filled the tank up again to see how much fuel was used.
City Test: We drove through a crowded city (Delhi NCR) for about 100km.
Highway Test: We drove on a highway (Delhi-Mumbai expressway) for about 100km, keeping a steady speed of 100km/h.
What’s the Real Mileage?
Here are the results of our test:
In the city: The Maruti Fronx got 12.8 km per liter. This is less than what the company claims, but it’s a realistic number for city traffic.
On the highway: The car got a much better 20.74 km per liter. This is actually slightly better than what the company claims.
What This Means for You
City Driving: If you mostly drive in the city, you can expect to spend about ₹7.58 per kilometer on fuel.
Highway Driving: If you mostly drive on highways, your fuel cost will be much lower, at about ₹4.68 per kilometer.
Mileage for Mixed Driving
Most people do a mix of city and highway driving. Here’s what you can expect:
City / Highway Driving Mix Expected Mileage Fuel Cost Per KM
Half City, Half Highway 16.77 kmpl ₹5.78
More City (70% City) 15.18 kmpl ₹6.39
More Highway (70% Highway) 18.36 kmpl ₹5.28
