How many kilometers can a full tank of gas last for the GL8?
2 Answers
The GL8 can travel approximately 785 kilometers on a full tank of gas under constant speed conditions. Below is an introduction to the GL8's fuel consumption: 1. Fuel Consumption: The Buick GL8 has a fuel tank capacity of 66/70L, with an official combined fuel consumption of 8.4-8.6L/100km. Based on these parameters, the GL8 can travel about 785 kilometers on a full tank under constant speed conditions. 2. Other Factors: The distance a car can travel is influenced by various factors such as fuel tank capacity, engine displacement, and road conditions. The fuel tank capacity determines the amount of fuel a car can carry, and the size of the fuel tank is directly related to the car's fuel consumption. Additionally, different models have varying fuel tank capacities, and even similar models from different brands may have different fuel tank sizes.
I've been driving the GL8 for almost three years now. This business van has a fuel tank capacity of about 70 liters. Based on my daily driving habits, with frequent traffic congestion in the city, the fuel consumption can reach around 11L/100km, meaning a full tank gets me just over 600 kilometers. However, on the highway, I've tried maintaining a steady speed of 90km/h, and the fuel consumption drops below 8L/100km, easily allowing me to cover 900 kilometers on a single tank. The age of the car and maintenance are also crucial. I recently replaced the air filter and spark plugs, which improved fuel efficiency by 10%. I recommend regularly checking tire pressure and engine oil to save both fuel and money. From my personal experience, the GL8 performs quite well on long highway trips, but for daily commutes, it's helpful to use an app to plan routes with less traffic.
