I think the oil diet and fuel quality you use in such a turbo engine make all the difference.

51,000 kms up and she is driving as smoothly as ever.
I have been using this car on a daily basis. Ever since I decided I wanted to sell it; I find myself making the most of my time left with the lil one. This turbo four-banger really shines fuel economy-wise when the mood takes you. She has been averaging a very respectable 9.5+ kmpl consistently in the last two tankfuls (on my 60/40 Highway/City cycle).
I think the oil diet and fuel quality you use in such a turbo engine make all the difference. I am also amazed at how reliable this build has been from the get-go. I have only had to be on top of the periodic maintenance/wear & tear stuff. The 95+ octane diet for all its life after 19,000 km and being driven regularly has done wonders. Also, there is nothing better for an engine than a good old Italian tune-up from time to time.
I have no doubt that this N13 engine will run well over 150,000 km. It wasn’t just awarded the 2013 International Engine of the Year for nothing.
And now for your long weekend delectation, the edited pictures from The Drivers Hub shoot have finally come through. Feast your eyes on the last RWD Hatchback ever sold, in India and around the world.
