Whats the fuel capacity of the fd1? On the honda site it says 50L but my bars are empty with the empty lights on. I get roughly 500km at that point. But when I fill a full tank its only about 40L

yes they have 50Ltr tanks. usually the fuel light comes on when ur down to about 10ltrs in the tank, although u still should have about 3 bars on the display left when it happens.

Not to forget there is definitely some trapped air in the tank so it would not be 50L as well

Your car tells u that u have less that what is actually there, so that you don't run out of fuel accidentally.

If you did any research or bothered to read the manual, you would know that the light goes on at 8L etc. The fd isnt as efficient as honda claimed sadly ><

omfgwtfbbq 6.63??

Do you work far away, and drive constantly downhill or something?

remember, 6.9 is combined urban and extraurban... If you're going for a long straight run, you should probably compare to a different figure than that

I get most of what you are saying. But no, not too far way and it's not downhill. Figures are legit. Like I said maybe I got a freak.

What do you mean about long straight run and comparing to different figures?
