Very weak, my Polo TSi 2025 managed to do 20 km/l on the Br going from Brasília to João Pinheiro MG.
The big problem is the astronomical tax, a cheap car doesn't mean much.
I have an Argo Automatic, and I'm very happy with it. An excellent car.
I have a Mobi Trekking 2025 and I am simply surprised at how enjoyable it is to drive. It doesn't even feel like I'm in such a small, smooth, quiet and economical car. As for the price, unfortunately it is the reality in Brazil, but it is incomparable to the Kwid or any other in the category that has similar values.
Any car can do 700km on a tank. It all depends on the size of the tank.
