Hi.
I don't really know a lot about cars.
I have a red one with 7 seats but I don't usually put all the seats down. So I reckon it has the fuel economy of a 5 seater on average.
I've also noticed the trip computer displays an economy of 0.1 mpg while I'm waiting at the traffic lights. The hand-brake is holding, so I reckon that's because the earth is moving through space all the time.
It runs on tyres. This car has a diesel injection engine while my old one had a petrol injection engine. I can use the same tyres, the engine just injects them differently.
Best Wishes.
(perhaps I should keep my day job and not consider a career as a comedian).

Not sure where ES is basedIt's a fairly ordinary house with a B rating for energy efficiency but I can't always park the car close to my house and I don't know what efficiency the other houses offer.
