Here is a list of cars available in Pakistan with their respective mileage in Urban and Extra Urban cycle.
Urban Cycle means that the fuel efficiency tests were carried out in a laboratory, in which the car was accelerated at steady speeds, decelerated, and was kept idle from time to time. During the Urban cycle, the car in this cycle is put to a maximum speed at 50km/h, an average speed of 19km/h for a distance of 4km. We can assume the conditions are kept as if the car was running in the streets of a city.
Extra Urban Cycle is conducted immediately after the urban cycle. In this cycle, the car is kept at a steady speed, with a bit of deceleration and acceleration and some idling. The car is put to a maximum speed of 120km/h, with an average speed of 63km/h and is made to cover a distance of 7km. This test mimics the way a car is driven on a highway. Its results can be taken to be very similar to the mileage of a car on a Highway.
