drive.com has given the new LS3 a bit of a spray on its 15.3 and 15.7(maloo) litres per 100km on there website.
They compare the engine with european engines with same or fewer cubic inches and the Alloy dinasour gets the worst consumption of the lot and its also the slowest, even the BOSS V8 gets 1.3 litres per 100 better and the Ford turbo which is also faster saves 3.6 litres per 100km more than the Chev! I think Ford have done the right thing keeping the BOSS to 5.4 litres as it looks for other ways to find extra power, where as HSV really look like enviromental thugs by making there engines bigger and thirstier, something which may come back to bite them in the rear as fuel resources and prices are stretched to the limit.
