Scooters are big on fuel efficiency, and the Honda Scoopy is often praised for its economical engine. But in the real world, you can see fuel consumption can differ greatly from the manufacturer claims, depending on riding conditions, maintenance, and personal driving style. There is considerable debate among riders as to whether the Scoopy actually lives up to its fuel-sipping reputation in daily commutes, stop-and-go traffic, or on longer rides. Some users say they’re getting some impressive mileage figures, whereas others say the difference from competitors is negligible.

So, let’s compare notes on how the Scoopy performs in other real-world fuel economy situations from the riders’ perspective.
