AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS: What are the different types?  (FAQs)
But they are getting better. The EGS in the new Citroen C4 and C4 Picasso is quite good. Can also bring benefits in fuel economy and C02 output,. The Citroen C4 1.6 HDI 110 EGS emits less than 120g/km CO2. -
Review: Yamaha YS125 (productReview)
The YS is a new learner-legal commuter done very much by the numbers. Key to this bike’s design is the fuel-injected 125cc single-cylinder engine that now meets EU4 emissions regulations. With a cleaner exhaust, which exits via an upswept silencer, there are no concerns about using this Yamaha in the city centre environment where it thrives. -
Cheap van hire (Article)
7. Understand the fuel policy Another thing to watch out for is the fuel policy. The best scenario is full-to-full, where the van is handed over with a full tank and you refill the vehicle before returning it. -
Top 10: Cheapest new scooters 2018 (Article)
However, the Longjia is agile thanks to its light weight of 78kg, nippy up to 30mph and the 6.0-litre fuel tank gives a good range on this learner-legal bargain. Direct Bikes 50cc Sports Direct Bikes imports the 50cc Sport and a range of other identically priced models from China, which goes a long way to explaining the low price. -
Review: Honda PCX 125 (productReview)
It works by switching off the engine when the scooter is standing still to save fuel. There’s an override that prevents it from operating if the battery’s charge is too low, so you’ll never be left stranded at the lights or a junction. It’s typical of Honda’s approach to its scooters to include this kind of technology. -
Honest John Awards 2018: The Winners (Article)
Over the past 12 months the Hyundai i10 has consistently received five star feedback, winning praise for comfort, reliability and fuel economy from drivers who live with it every single day. Real MPG Car of the Year - Toyota GT86 Few cars match the Toyota GT86 when it comes to real world fuel economy. -
Review Lexmoto Tempest 125 (productReview)
Then again, there's £2189 between them... To comply with Euro 4 emissions regulations, the Tempest 125 is fitted with fuel injection. When combined with the engine, it provides 7.2Kw @ 8500 revs. It does around 90mpg and features a 13-litre tank. Thanks to the ground clearance and bash plate, it can also handle a gravel track - but we wouldn't try to take it too off-road. -
Review: Honda Super Cub (productReview)
A big difference, however, between these two Honda machines is the Cub has a significantly smaller fuel tank at just 3.7-litres. So, you’ll likely need to fill up the tank every 140 miles or so if you ride frugally. Access to the fuel filler is a little awkward as you have to press a release button tucked away under the left-hand side of the single seat. -
Review: Suzuki GSX-R125 (productReview)
Suzuki says it has the smallest projected frontal area in the 125cc class, which helps to improve fuel efficiency. Speaking of which, you'll get a claimed 122.82mpg from this thing. If you ride it conservatively, you'll see a bit over 100mpg. Riding it not so gently, we saw fuel economy around 93mpg. -
Review: Kawasaki Z300 (productReview)
The analogue rev counter dominates the dash, with tell-tale lights either side and a digital display for speed, fuel and trip to the lower right. All are easy to read and you also get an Economical Riding Indicator to let you know when you’re getting the best fuel consumption from the bike. Make the most of that function and you should see 70mpg, but the Z300 is a lot of fun to ride, so we saw a more real world 57mpg. -
Top 10: 125cc bikes with manual transmissions (Article)
There are some obvious areas in which prices have been cut, including the use of a carburettor instead of fuel injection, which is used on the Yamaha YBR and Honda CB125F. But otherwise the CK1 is easy to get on with. It will manage more than 60mph, so is fine if your commute isn’t all around town, plus it will achieve fuel economy of more than 100mpg. -
Review: Sealey MAC03 tyre inflator (productReview)
If you’re running low tyre pressures on your car, you might as well be throwing money away as you can expect increased fuel consumption. Not only that, but they can also mean your car will not handle as well as it should, while you can expect braking performance to be compromised as well. That’s where portable compact air compressors like the Sealey MAC03 come in handy. -
Review: Kymco X-Town (productReview)
Fuel consumption 71.3mpg (est). VED £41. -
Review: Honda CB500X (productReview)
Even the 830mm seat height isn’t as much of an issue as shorter riders might fear as the updated 500X’s fuel tank is now 20mm narrower. It allowed this 5'10" tester to get feet flat on the floor when coming to a halt. Lastly, there’s the new fully digital dash display. It presents all of the relevant information clearly, though we found bright direct sunlight could obscure the readout briefly. -
Review: Lexmoto Viper 125 2017 (productReview)
There’s a gear indicator, along with a digital tachometer so you can get to grips with changing gears more easily as a new rider. There’s also a fuel gauge, a surprisingly uncommon feature on motorcycles, that should keep you from getting stranded. Not that you’ll need fuel very often. Economy isn’t quoted, but expect around 100mpg. The Viper has a little trick up its sleeve too. -
Review: Honda Forza 125 2017 (productReview)
In fact, the Forza hides its bulk very well and is surprisingly easy to move around a garage or in and out of tight, crowded bike bays. Running costs are tiny. Annual tax is £17 and fuel economy is genuinely upwards of 100mpg, no matter how you ride. If you’re thinking of using the Forza instead of paying for a pricey train season ticket, it should itself off in savings fairly quickly, particularly if you're on a PCP. -
Review: Kawasaki Z250SL 2016 (productReview)
width=500&height=333.33333333333337" alt="" data-udi="umb://media/cd6976859f25425bb21a9ff2ba9227e5" /> The instruments and controls are simple but perfectly useful – there’s a digital display with rev counter, speedo, ODO, fuel gauge and a clock. The rest of the minor controls are exactly where you would expect to find them and everything feels sturdy and well-made, as is typical of all Kawasaki bikes. It should stand up to use in all weathers. -
Review: Piaggio Medley 125 2016 (productReview)
It’s extremely quiet and smooth, plus it is compact thanks to a small radiator mounted to the side, rather than way up at the front with lots of plumbing. That helps it warm up more quickly and, along with the low position of the fuel tank, contributes to the large under-seat load area. At a red light the engine will cut out automatically when up to temperature, before firing up in an instant as soon as the throttle is operated even slightly. -
