Fuel Economy Results With Surbo

This is a fuel economy report from the owner of a 2016 Mazda 3 equipped with Surbo.


The Surbo gives more energy, enabling quick acceleration towards the more economical higher gears in a shorter time. Most customers report an overall improvement of 10% in economy. If driving on highways, the vehicle easily exceeds speed limits due to the higher torque, so less of the accelerator needs to be pressed. For automatic cars, rolling distance is longer with foot off accelerator, with engine rpm hardly dropping due to the Surbo system's air accumulation. The following cars have been made more frugal with Surbo:

*Note: this car belongs to the Kedah dealer Azman. Although it is manual, it's got cruise control too. Running without cruise control, the highway consumption was 14-15 km/litre, but when the cruise control was turned on, Azman could feel the accelerator being automatically depressed further from his foot, and the extra pedal travel brought the highway consumption back to the original 12-13 km/litre. This shows that with a Surbo, the driver will press less on the accelerator and this will contribute to a more relaxing drive, and of course more economy.
