Which city are you in, do you drive only in the city?
What’s the driving pattern and also how serious is the traffic.
Is the car in a good condition with no check engine light.

No traffic, I don't drive aggressively, no check engine light.

I don't think it is good considering the car involved. My Camry 2000 with a bigger engine size does 9.5km/l

You: 18 miles per gallon.

Toyota: 26 miles per gallon.

Find the missing 8.

8km per liter is not too good for a 1.8L engine. I drive a 2.4L engine car and I do get 7.5km per liter even though I have engine light on.

City Driving

AC on

Traffic

Do affect fuel economy

Check if your vehicle is not having check engine light on

Not good brother. My 1998 Nissan Primera with 2.0 engine which I've been driving since 2014 still does 85km on 10 litres that's 8.5km/L. Your corolla should give nothing less than 12km/L. Check it pls.

you are doing about 19mpg which is the same as a F150

time for tune up and check your tire pressure is about 29-32psi
