How Many Kilometers Can One Liter of 92 Octane Gasoline Drive?
1 Answers
If driving on ordinary urban roads with a fuel consumption of approximately 8 liters per 100 kilometers, one liter of gasoline can drive about 12.5 kilometers. Additionally, this depends on the vehicle condition, road conditions, and the driver's habits. Fuel Efficiency Introduction: Under normal circumstances, one liter of gasoline can support a 1.6L sedan to drive 10-15 kilometers. In reality, the efficiency of internal combustion engines is generally around 35%, with 20% lost to friction in the drivetrain. Active engine cooling, exhaust heat dissipation, noise and vibration, and emissions account for another 10% of waste. A comprehensive gasoline utilization rate of about 22% is already quite energy-efficient. Therefore, during steady-speed cruising, one liter of gasoline typically allows driving 10-15 kilometers, influenced by factors such as speed and driving habits. Gasoline Grade Selection: Generally, it is recommended to use 92 octane gasoline for engines with a compression ratio below 8.5. For engines with a compression ratio between 8.5-9.5, either 92 or 95 octane can be used. For engines with a compression ratio above 9.5, 95 octane or higher-grade 98 octane gasoline should be selected to ensure the optimal combustion environment inside the cylinders.
