Is 8 Fuel Consumption Considered High?
1 Answers
For different vehicle models, the specific situation varies. A fuel consumption of 8 indicates that the vehicle consumes 8 liters per 100 kilometers. For a 2.0-liter engine, this can be considered relatively low fuel consumption. However, for a 1.5-liter or 1.6-liter engine, it is just average and not considered high. Below are some factors that affect fuel consumption: 1. Road conditions: When selecting a route, try to choose one that is less congested and shorter in distance to save more fuel. 2. Tire pressure: Some car owners might think that in hot summer weather, tires expand due to heat and therefore slightly reduce tire pressure. In reality, maintaining proper tire pressure is crucial for both fuel efficiency and tire lifespan. If a tire is underinflated by 40Kpa, its lifespan could decrease by 10,000 kilometers, and fuel consumption could increase by 3%. If tire pressure drops by 30%, at a speed of 40km/h, fuel consumption might increase by 5%-10%.
