How Much Fuel Is Consumed When Idling for 20 Minutes Without Turning Off the Engine?

[VanMarley]

Taking a 2.0L displacement car as an example, idling for 20 minutes without turning off the engine consumes 0.26L of fuel. When the vehicle is in an idling state, it uses 1.1 milliliters of gasoline every 5 seconds, 11 milliliters in 50 seconds, and 0.26L of fuel for 20 minutes of idling. Definition of Fuel Consumption: It refers to the vehicle's fuel consumption per 100 kilometers obtained in the constant-speed fuel consumption test specified by national standards for certain types of vehicles. Actual Fuel Consumption: Since cars often experience various driving conditions such as acceleration, deceleration, braking, and engine idling in real-world driving, constant-speed fuel consumption is often lower and significantly different from actual fuel consumption. This difference is especially pronounced for cars frequently used for short trips in urban areas. Road cycle fuel consumption, also known as multi-condition road cycle fuel consumption, is a fuel economy indicator measured when a vehicle drives in repeated cycles according to specified speed and time protocols on the road.
