Does the Crown consume a lot of fuel?
1 Answers
The Crown is equipped with two different engines, and their fuel consumption varies. The 2.0T engine has a tested combined fuel consumption of 8.5L, while the 2.5L engine's measured fuel consumption is slightly higher, at around 9L under comprehensive road conditions. The 2.5L naturally aspirated engine's fuel consumption is relatively higher compared to the turbocharged version. Below is an introduction to the fuel-saving technologies adopted by the Crown: 1. Dual Injection System (Port Injection/Direct Injection). During engine operation, various conditions are encountered. The dual injection system can switch between different fuel injection methods according to different conditions to achieve better power output and combustion efficiency, while also avoiding issues like intake manifold carbon buildup common in direct injection engines. 2. Otto/Atkinson Dual-Cycle System. The Crown's new 2.0T+ engine uses the Otto cycle during the starting phase to ensure strong acceleration. During medium-to-low load phases, it switches to the Atkinson cycle to reduce fuel consumption and improve efficiency. In high-load phases, it reverts to the Otto cycle to ensure sufficient power output. By seamlessly combining these two cycles, the Crown achieves both strong performance and excellent fuel efficiency.
