Nissan fuel economy - Nissan Micra petrol cost to drive a given distance.

For drivers of Nissan Micras, the following links contain the defaults for the Micra fuel efficient. Click on the link and you'll go to the Petrol Cost Calculator with the Litres/100km value already set as the default. Enter your distance and price of fuel per litre and you can see the cost of petrol for the given distance.

The petrol cost calculator is a web app I've written to help others determine the cost of using their car in terms of petrol usage.

What quite surprised me when reviewing the fuel consumption figures for the Nissan Micra is that except for the 1.2L manual my wife's car which is a Holden Astra made in 2000 (manual) is more fuel efficient in terms of efficiency when new. The Astra has a 1.8L fuel injected engine. It really is a poor reflection on the car industry when a 13 year old car with a bigger engine has a better fuel efficiency. That isn't something I would have expected and will make me review carefully the fuel efficiency of cars in the future.
