Why is my Mistra consuming 12 liters per 100km?

This could be caused by driving habits such as rapid acceleration and hard braking. Here are some fuel consumption related factors: 1. Habits & Road Conditions: Fuel consumption is heavily influenced by driving habits and road conditions. Avoid stomping on the accelerator - gradual acceleration from a start is most fuel-efficient. To save fuel, avoid heavy throttle application during startup, as this can increase fuel consumption by 2-3 times compared to normal acceleration. 2. Braking: Maintaining proper following distance to avoid frequent braking saves even more fuel. Without adequate spacing, you'll often need to brake on roads. When braking, automatic transmission vehicles downshift, requiring the engine to work harder to regain speed from lower gears. Starting from standstill or low gears forces the engine to consume significantly more fuel.
