Smile fuel efficienct device

My car doesn't have a fuel efficient device. However, my India-made Maruti ALTO car gives 15 km per one litre of petrol. I suppose it is a good measure of fuel efficiency.

FIRST OPINION

This just confirms my thoughts that most sensible people drive toyotas, especially corollas (mine's a corolla too )

FIRST OPINION
It's a measure of perhaps average fuel consumption. I think the intent of the poll was how your driving style affects your immediate fuel economy.

Your 15km/l works out at about 42mpg (UK gal).

That would be a little difficult unless you mean the brake pedal?
