...and buy some model of Prius! I get a long-term average of just under 5 litres/100Km from my Prius-C, and that includes a lot of 110 Km/hour travel between The Highlands and Sydney where it's less efficient. Interestingly, the trip to Sydney, which is significantly downhill, normally requires about 3.8-3.9 litres/100Km but that figure increases to 5.0-5.2 on the uphill journey back. It's surprising how one's attitude to petrol price changes with such an economical vehicle.
