I’ve been driving the Honda Civic Hybrid 2009 for around 2 months now and I have mixed feelings. In the showroom, it had a nice green sticker on it indicating that fuel consumption would be 4.6L per 100km but that has been far from my experience. Yes, I understand that it complies with ADR81/01 tests and that this figure could change depending on my drive style and traffic conditions but the closest average figure I’ve been able to get is around 6.8L to 7.0L per 100km.While even this figure is still very economical compared to other cars, I would like to see it hit at least the 5.0L mark.

We all hate traffic right? Well to help ease me through the (mostly daily) ordeal, I’ve mounted up my iPhone within finger’s reach from the steering wheel.  Easy to take photos, Twitter, Facebook, GPS and even handsfree telephone conversations. Please take note that I do not condone any of the aforementioned social activities while the car is actually moving!
