I think the answer is it depends:
When I was ripping 2019 XSE V6 around Vancouver/Richmond I was getting about 10L/km cuz you can't rip it that much since the transmission is slow (1st > 2nd at redline drops you in 2500rpm) and you get tons of wheel hop.
When I drive an IS350 RWD I get 14L/100km with its better grip & 8 speed trans with more sensical gearing.
Accord 2.0T with the 10 speed can be quite responsive but both the 1.5T and 2.0T are blowing head gaskets on regular.
My 5.0 Mustang got 14L/100km on regular lol with like 440hp.
