That mileage is indeed very impresive. The i10 made it's debut in India but it may have a diffrent powertrain since the mileage isn't so high there, Oh wait a min they give km per litre to be around 20 (actual user figures) So when you convert to MPG I guess it kinda evens out ..

I am not very certain this buddy of mine is a frugal driver. I remember on a bike which advertised 100 kmpl & the average Joe would get around 70 min this dude never got more than 55. Of course those figures where in college, & hopefully he has matured ;) Bottom line the figures of 56mpg could be realistic :)
