Default Poor gas mileage - 09 Lancer SE

My drive to and from work is 100km per day, and 99.9% of that drive is highway driving. Logic would dictate that I would get pretty good gas mileage. Is it normal for me to burn gas at a rate of almost exactly 10 litres for every 100km's that I drive? I don't drive fast, I drive about 90km\h for the first half, and about 120km\h for the last half. For a 2.0L engine, it seems rather high, when you consider that there's SUV's, minivans and PORSCHES out there that have better fuel efficiency than I do. Any ideas?


Cheers!!!

My apologies....that's a fuel consumption of 23.76 miles per gallon, doing a 62 mile trip per day. 55 miles per hour first half, 74 the second half.
