Experts say tank-to-tank method is the reliable way to measure real-world fuel efficiency. To check, fill the tank fully, reset the trip meter, drive normally, then refill at the same pump. Divide the distance travelled by litres added to get kmpl. Repeat over 3-4 refills for a more reliable average. Fuel efficiency is calculated as distance travelled ÷ fuel added.
