For individuals who cannot wait to test this feature even while playing the early stages of the game, the best option would be to setup a custom race with the fuel consumption option switched on.
Setting Up Custom Races with Fuel Consumption
If you want to establish a custom event, you should select World Circuits from the GT World Map using the d-pad or left analogue stick.
After selecting a circuit by pressing Cross, please select the Custom Race option. However, before the event is actually started you should first click on the Custom Settings tab.
This is where you will be able to see the option for the fuel consumption rate. With the help of a slider, users can set the rate of consumption: the higher the slider, the more the rate.
