Is 14L/100km Fuel Consumption High?
1 Answers
14L/100km is considered relatively high fuel consumption, as most vehicles on the market typically achieve 7 to 8L/100km. 14L/100km means the vehicle consumes 14 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers traveled. Here are specific details about fuel consumption: 1. Driving Habits: If the driver adopts a gentle driving style, the vehicle's fuel consumption will be lower. Conversely, aggressive driving leads to higher fuel consumption. When driving, it's advisable to press the accelerator lightly and avoid unnecessary overtaking. Keeping an eye on the road ahead allows you to release the accelerator early when encountering traffic and change lanes in advance. 2. Road Conditions: Frequent driving in congested urban areas results in higher fuel consumption. In contrast, driving on smooth elevated roads or highways leads to lower fuel consumption. In urban driving, frequent stops at traffic lights and traffic jams are common. During these stops, although the vehicle's mileage doesn't increase, the engine continues to run, thereby increasing the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers.
