Alright guys, the result's in. I resetted the trip computer when the light went on and added 40L of gas. Now the light's on again and the trip computer reads 485KM so it's roughly 28.51 MPG.
This is all city driving with stop and go traffic. I did as much hypermiling as possible, used cruise control pretty much constantly. I accelerated so slowly from the stop that even a turtle could overtake me lol. A/C is never on, front tire pressure is 45 PSI and rear is 43.
After a week and half of hypermiling, I swear to god I will never do this again. It took the fun right out of driving. Sure the milage is great but Kizashi is designed to have fun. If I want great milage, I would have gotten a Prius or some other hybrids.
