Toyota Etios User Reviews

I purchased one Toyota Etios (V) model car from Madhuban Toyota in Mumbai in July 2011. Since the day of purchase, till now (October 2012) I have used the car over 8000 kms. This car is perhaps the worst car I have purchased in my life. The approximate fuel consumption in city driving is 6 KMPL!, on the highway and expressway it does better at 11.5 KMPL. This is an extremely far cry from the claimed efficiency of 17kmpl as certified by ARAI, and way below Toyota claim of 12kmpl (city) and 18 kmpl (Highway). I have repeatedly complained to Madhuban, and Toyota India. They have checked and verified the vehicle several times and have given me reports that my vehicle is in perfect condition. On the basis of their trials, they have reportedly obtained over 18kmpl on Mumbai highway, and, 12 kmpl in city driving. I would like to know from other Etios owners as to whether they are achieving milage as claimed by Toyota, in city driving conditions, or is my car the only sample which is performing so poorly.
