How many kilometers can a Jetta run on a full tank of gas?
1 Answers
A Jetta can run about 630 kilometers on a full tank of gas on long-distance trips and about 520 kilometers in urban areas. The fuel consumption of a car is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. The specific factors that increase fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving behaviors, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle in advance when approaching a red light, will increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger engine displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements usually mean greater power, requiring more gasoline to burn and perform work. Heavier cars also have higher fuel consumption because greater weight requires more driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases the car's resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperature: When the engine block is cold, the gasoline injected during a cold start does not vaporize easily, requiring more gasoline to burn, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, in low temperatures, the engine's computer will control the engine to run at higher RPMs to warm up, which also increases fuel consumption.
