I’ve noticed that using Shell fuel improves the performance & fuel efficiency. My car has returned 19-20 km/l on the highways & 13+ km/l in the city.

6 Months – 7K km Update
I could name my ride “Aśva – The white horse.” (Comfortline AT)
I updated my boring SW to MFSW with paddlers, and it is/will be the expensive retrofit by far! But it was a much-needed functional upgrade.
7K km includes mostly highway runs, a few ghats (Charmadi and Yercaud), and city beats (Bengaluru). So far, it has been an uneventful journey (touchwood), except for a few scratches and a dent (keeping it for self-reminder). I continue to take care of and maintain in whatever way I can.
Personal observations on fuel types:
- IOCL: XP95 and Regular fuel types returned an average of 14-16/liter on highways, 9-11 in the city.
- Shell: Wanted to experiment with both Regular and VPower. I could sense the engine performed better, and the VPower gave the extra edge on mileage. It consistently returned an unbelievable 19-20/liter on highways and around 13+ in the city.
Snapped en route to Yercaud from Palani:
Here’s what BHPian Shreyas_H had to say about the matter:
Hey, could you share some more details of the installation process for the multi-functional steering wheel? Is it plug & play for the Comfortline AT variant?
Is there a requirement for any wire/connector splicing because of the on-wheel buttons or lights? Also, what’s the cost for that? Would be great if you could share a few pictures as well!
