Look at that XR6 Turbo go!!!!!

I took a G6E Turbo from Melbourne to Sydney at 7.4L/100km so I can back that one up. Did 799.5km on a tank too.

An Econetic is on fire too, winning the charge with lowest economy, with the Falcon winning on biggest improvement over sticker.

Not sure why the other manufacturers are wasting the fuel to be honest!

Did the Maloo break down?!!!!

In the participants details, it lists the Holden Viva as a hybrid. Is that a typo, a new model, or a custom install?

Either way, the XR6T used less fuel than Viva. :
