It depends on your speed. The F20 has rather lousy aerodynamics, so high speed driving costs a lot of energy. If you keep the speed around 50-80 km/h on a long drive, which suits Norwegian speed limits, you can get down to 5.0 L/100 km or maybe even lower.

I guess running on 245-tyres is not really helping either. A set of 7" wheels with 205 tyres in all corners, is probably better for both mileage and handling on low power F20s.
