Mate, I suggest you're slightly lead footed if you're only getting 5.9/100km in stop start traffic. I get by far more fuel economy in this situation than on the highway. I drove from Merrylands to Bulli yesterdat evening anc was well below 4l/100 in the urban traffic until I hit the 80-100kmh zones where it went above 4. If you drive it remotely conservatively you get better fuel economy in urban areas than on the highway.
I am a conservative driver, but my journey to work is mostly uphill hence geting that figure. I managed to get 4.4l/100km as an average for the week i drove the car.
I personally wanted a Camry hybrid but it was slightly out of my price range. I decided on a Corolla but couldn't even get my hands on an ex-demo. I needed a car by mid June. I settled on the i30 and I'm not disappointed. Got it for $36,600 driveaway with tinted windows, hardwired dashcam and carpet floor mats thrown in. Feel I got a pretty good deal and hopefully it holds it's value well enough so it's worth it for me to upgrade in a couple of years. I'm 6'2" 155kg too and this is well spacious enough for me. Not too sure the Corolla would've been.
@XaviRonaldo0 Sounds like you got a good deal on your i30! Congratulations, I'm sure it will serve you well. It's definitely bigger inside than my Corolla sedan, something I noticed when I got back in my car after driving the i30.
@@michaeldejesus7418 You won't be disappointed. I use mine every day too, and although it's not an exciting car, I love it! I use an app called Road Trip to log all my fuel fill ups which I know is a bit nerdy, but I love knowing how fuel efficient my car is.
@WebbyOnCars I'm not fuss about not being exciting, that's where I take out the next gen raptor out of the garage when I'm feeling like burning fuel lol. And thanks for the app, I'll look into that, I also like knowing how good/bad I've done at the end of the week with l/100km

I'm not convinced with corolla. The noise suppression and ride harshness isn't good enough. I'm possibly talking about rear torsion beam models.
@campbellreither550 I find the ride very comfortable in my Corolla, and the noise isn't too bad either.
What's your feul consumption like on your corolla? If you don't mind me asking, cheers
@michaeldejesus7418 I've owned my Corolla for 8 months and I'm averaging 4.3L/100km
@@WebbyOnCars that's awesome to know. Can't wait for my corolla hybrid. It's going to be my daily

@michaeldejesus7418 Sounds like you've got the best of both worlds having the Raptor and the Corolla Hybrid.
The Raptor is an awesome vehicle!
