From 2 bars to flashing? - Toyota Yaris Forums

David C · 05-27-2017, 11:23 AM

From my observations, first bar is between 6 and 7 liters off a full tank, second bar being another 5 to 6 liters, etc. On constant highway driving with cruise control and no stopping, I would get about 110km on the first bar and hit 180km on the second. Best I've done was 125km on first and 190km on second. Fuel consumption was 6.4L/100km. Out of the 8 bars, the first 3 are half the tank. Including the flash bar, the last 3 bars are about 15L total. When i get down to 2 bars, I know I still have at least 10L left of fuel, so roughly 100km worth of margins even with bad fuel consumption. I reset one of the trip odometer when I fill up, so that helps me keep track of my gas mileage and range. It sure gives me a little pinch to the wallet when I see the first bar go at only 50km in winter city time compared to 115km on highway drives.

I never fill the tank past the pump automatic stop either.
