Because it's so hard to find specs on max's (feul efficency)

If you guys would be so kind, please write down your feul average feul efficency.

For instance the new Maxima 2002 does 12L/100km (something like that)

and if you have galons/miles don't bother converting, i'll do that myself

Thanks in advance.

P.S. Does anyone else kinda think the 3rd generation Maxima kind of looks like the Nissan Skyline?

2002 Auto 20 city/26 highway (MPG)
2002 Stick 21 city/28 highway (MPG)

Per Nissan's US web site. I know the canadian site has some outrageous numbers for the fuel economy. Apparenty Canada isn't nearly as strict as the US in how it's measured.

on average???

about 15mpg.. I have a 3-5 min drive to work so the car never warms up fully (15 mins).. always very rich. that's within spec btw, consumer reports measured 14-16mpg for all 2000+ V6 cars during the first 10-15 mins or until the emissions system warms completely.

1998 Max GLE (auto of course)

On a full tank, I get between 400-450 kms. It varies on weather, seasons, A/C usage and how hard it's driven
