Is 10L/100km Fuel Consumption High?
1 Answers
If it's urban road conditions, this fuel consumption is not high, but it would be somewhat high if frequently driving on highways. To accurately calculate fuel consumption, you can drive at a constant speed of 120 km/h on the highway for at least 200 kilometers or more. The fuel consumption calculated under such conditions is relatively standard. Here are some methods to reduce fuel consumption: 1. Check the air conditioning system in summer: Air conditioning malfunctions are a significant cause of high fuel consumption. Poor cooling performance will require higher fan speeds and lower temperatures to achieve a cooling effect. 2. Frequent hard braking: Frequent hard braking is a major reason for persistently high car fuel consumption. While ensuring safe driving, make full use of the vehicle's inertia. 3. Avoid excessive air conditioning: For vehicles exposed to the sun, it is not advisable to turn on the air conditioning immediately after getting in. First, open the windows and set the fan to a higher speed without turning on the air conditioning to expel the hot air inside the car. Wait until the vehicle has cooled down moderately before turning on the air conditioning.
