Hi Denis, I have the same problem with my SR40, the consumption is about 7.9 Km/l . Previously i had IPSUM with the same Engine it consumes me only 85lts of fuel from DSM-SONGEA. (945Km) while the NOAH consumes about 120 liters for the same trip. The reason is the pulling mechanism. The Differential mechanism and the Front Wheel drives are the ones leading to High Fuel Consumption. Probably ones with SR50 (4WD) might be a beat lower. We should opt for Front Wheel vehicles and not running over 3 rev/min
