 Re: Today
is 28.7 highway driving, city driving or a combo?
mine gets roughly 8L/100 on the highway which is slightly better than standard.
didn't some models get like 50mpg?

That is a combination, with US gallons (3.78 litre) which are smaller than imperial gallons. Note the fine print:

"All mileage figures are from the [US Government] Environmental Protection Agency's recent test findings"

So all the cars in the list would have been tested the same way. Back in '73 they reported a combined figure instead of city/highway.

* MOTOR (NZ) said "Average on test, 28.9mpg."
* Road & Track test reported 28 mpg
* Consumer Reports said "23-41"

50mpg was Datsun B210 "MPG" model (A14 round port engine with 5-speed).

I'm sure glad I didn't buy the GTB.
