Sorry to learn about the sudden fuel gauge drop and the tail pipe issue. I have read your thread about the incident. All roads are hazardous

!
Back to fuel economy, you are very right, the bars at the lower parts of the gauge do not last as long as the top one. My experience is that except in some extreme cases, each of those bars (except the last one about which I have no courage to find out more

) gets about 50-65 kms in city driving and more in highway driving. As you and most users of this thread are aware, it depends on many factors. Long term averages are more reliable.
All the best and drive on for fuel economy!
