How Much Higher is Car Fuel Consumption in Summer Compared to Winter?
1 Answers
Winter and summer fuel consumption differences are not very significant, typically winter fuel consumption is about one liter higher than in summer. Here are some methods to reduce fuel consumption: 1. Check the air conditioning system in summer: Air conditioning malfunctions are a major cause of high fuel consumption. Poor cooling performance can lead to increased fan speed and lower temperature settings to achieve a cooling effect. 2. Frequent hard braking: Frequent hard braking is a primary reason for persistently high car fuel consumption. While ensuring safe vehicle operation, make full use of the vehicle's inertia. 3. Avoid excessive air conditioning use in small-displacement vehicles: For vehicles exposed to the sun, it's not advisable to turn on the air conditioning immediately upon entering. First, open the windows and set the fan to a higher setting without turning on the air conditioning to expel the hot air inside. Wait until the vehicle has cooled down moderately before turning on the air conditioning.
