Did You Know?
The average motorist will spend more than RM80,000 on fuel over the course of a lifetime − petrol being the biggest motoring expense of all.
Generally speaking, if you cover a high mileage and most of your driving is on highways, then a diesel engine is a good option.
But if most of your journeys are in and around the city center and your mileage is low daily, a small petrol powered car might be more suitable for you.
