2001 Honda Civic DX Real World Fuel Efficiency

     Total fuel consumed = 4167.8 litres
      Total cost of fuel = 4041.86 dollars
Total distance travelled = 51674.0 kilometres
      Total CO2 produced = 10002 kg 
    CO2 per km travelled = 0.19 kg/km
   Mean fuel cost per km = 7.8 cents/km
         Mean efficiency = 8.07 l/100km  (Total Volume/Total Distance)

These numbers are based principally on city driving. I have yet to take this vehicle on a long road trip. It may be that there will be significant improvement on the highway. Occasionally gasoline purchases were not recorded and sometimes the car was not filled up. Both of these events produce anomalously low/high results (distance/volume).
