Mazda BT-50 Fuel Economy Malaysia — Diesel
BT-50 1.9L city: 10–13 L/100km; highway: 7–9 L/100km. 3.0L city: 11–14 L/100km; highway: 8–10 L/100km. Diesel: unloaded pickup rear tyres spin easier — wastes fuel. Keep 60–70 km/h on highway for best diesel economy. DPF regen: once per 500–800 km highway driving. Avoid excessive idling — soot accumulation.
