How much fuel does a 1.5t car consume when running the AC overnight?
1 Answers
1.5t car running the AC overnight, depending on the vehicle's displacement, generally consumes over 10 liters of fuel. Additional information is as follows: 1. Engine: The engine's operation mainly maintains the functioning of the air conditioning compressor, water pump, oil pump, flywheel, etc. If the clutch is engaged (clutch pedal not pressed), the engine also needs to drive components like the transmission input shaft gears. 2. Engine idling: Engine idling also consumes a significant amount of fuel. If idling only drives the air conditioning compressor, more energy is wasted, and the engine remains at high temperatures for extended periods, potentially leading to carbon dioxide buildup.
