Engine start-stop needs repair if it's broken. It is recommended to have it inspected and confirmed at a professional repair shop or 4S store. Origin of Engine Start-Stop: Engine automatic start-stop technology was developed in response to urban traffic congestion. In city driving, frequent stops and starts are inevitable. When the vehicle idles, the engine runs without load, which not only consumes fuel but also produces exhaust harmful to the urban environment. With engine automatic start-stop technology, when the driver presses the brake pedal to stop the vehicle, the automatic start-stop system controls the engine to shut off automatically. Upon releasing the brake pedal and pressing the accelerator, the engine automatically restarts. Benefits of Engine Start-Stop: The advantage of this function is that, without changing the driver's habits, it saves fuel consumption and reduces vehicle exhaust emissions through engine automatic start-stop.

How many liters of fuel does the Land Cruiser consume per 100 kilometers?

The Toyota Land Cruiser consumes 15 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers. Land Cruiser fuel consumption: 4.0-4.7L. The measurement of the Land Cruiser's fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is conducted by the manufacturer under specified conditions such as temperature, wind direction, and wind speed. The vehicle is driven on a flat road or a chassis dynamometer at a constant speed, typically 60, 90, or 120 kilometers per hour. Additional Information: 1. Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is closely related to factors such as the vehicle's age and condition, engine displacement, curb weight, and load. Generally, older vehicles with larger engine displacements tend to have higher fuel consumption per 100 kilometers. Driving with windows open for cooling during summer highway driving may not necessarily save fuel, as the increased wind resistance can lead to higher fuel consumption. 2. If excessive oil consumption is noticed, the first step is to check for oil leaks at connections such as the engine block, gear chamber cover, large plate on the drive wheel side, rear cover, and cover cap. If leaks are found, inspect whether the sealing gaskets at each connection are intact and replace any damaged ones. If the sealing gaskets are intact, check whether the connecting screws at each location are loose.

The limitation on vehicle width is to provide sufficient lateral clearance for overtaking between adjacent lanes. This means that, according to national standards, the significance of vehicle width data is to ensure enough space during overtaking, preventing accidents due to excessive width or situations where road markings are narrower than the vehicle's width. Additionally, national regulations stipulate that the total width of a vehicle must not exceed 2.5m to meet the usage requirements of public roads.
