Numbers released by automakers according to the institute's standards are far from reality, but they are still useful
The brand new car has an Inmetro label, which reveals some of the characteristics of this model. And what matters a lot to the customer is fuel consumption, but are these consumption figures reliable? Yes and no.

The official consumption of the car is measured with the use of a gasoline that has 22% ethanol. It is E22, when in fact the gasoline supplied by the station today has 30% ethanol. It already makes a reasonable difference.
And the other distortion is because these consumption values are measured by simulation in laboratories. However, as there are the same distortions in all models, it is worth the reference. The customer can compare the consumption between two models.
