generally speaking, fuel consumption is higher in low gears because the rpm of the engine is higher.

Performance is measured in kilometers/gallon. You have to consider that cars are designed for optimum performance when you drive at around 80 km/hr. For each car there is an optimum ratio distance/fuel consumption.
