How many kilometers can the Honda Crider run after the fuel gauge light comes on?
2 Answers
When the fuel gauge light of the Honda Crider comes on, generally the car can still run about 40-50 kilometers, but it is recommended to refuel as soon as possible. This range depends on the driving conditions after the light comes on. During this period, if you accelerate hard or drive aggressively, it may only run about 50 kilometers, while in fuel-saving mode, it can exceed 100 kilometers. Here are some tips for economical driving when the fuel gauge light is on: 1. Reduce braking and idling, and avoid driving at low speeds. Braking itself does not consume much fuel, but accelerating again after slowing down does. 2. Turn off electrical appliances such as navigation, radio, music, and air conditioning, as these devices consume significant power. 3. The most fuel-efficient speed is generally around 90 kilometers per hour. 4. Keep the windows closed when driving at the economical speed, as opening windows increases wind resistance, which requires more power to overcome.
I've been driving the Lingpai for several years. When the fuel warning light comes on, it usually can run about 50 to 70 kilometers, but this entirely depends on how you drive. If you maintain a steady speed below 90 km/h on the highway, it can last longer; in city traffic or with the air conditioning on, fuel consumption is faster, maybe only 30 to 40 kilometers. Last week, the light came on during my commute, and I pushed it to the gas station, managing to go 65 kilometers before barely making it, but I really don’t recommend doing this. The fuel light indicates that the reserve is almost empty, which is bad for the fuel pump and can easily wear out the engine. It’s best to find the nearest gas station and fill up instead of risking a long drive. The Lingpai’s fuel tank is about 40 liters, and when the light comes on, there’s roughly 5-8 liters left. With an average fuel consumption of 6-7 liters per 100 kilometers, you can do the math. Make it a habit to refuel as soon as the light flashes—it protects your car and saves you money.
