Is 8L/100km Fuel Consumption Considered High?
1 Answers
Fuel consumption is related to the engine displacement of a car. For a 2.0-liter engine, 8L per 100 kilometers is relatively low fuel consumption. For a 1.5-liter or 1.6-liter engine, 8L per 100 kilometers is considered average. A car's fuel consumption depends not only on the vehicle itself but also on the driver's habits and road conditions. More details about car fuel consumption are as follows: 1. Driving Habits: If a driver has a gentle driving style, the car's fuel consumption will be lower. If the driving style is more aggressive, the fuel consumption will be higher. When driving, it's best to press the accelerator lightly and avoid unnecessary overtaking. Look as far ahead as possible to anticipate traffic, allowing you to release the accelerator early and change lanes in advance. 2. Road Conditions: If you frequently drive in congested urban areas, the car's fuel consumption will be higher. If you often drive on smooth elevated roads or highways, the fuel consumption will be lower. In city driving, frequent stops at traffic lights and traffic jams are common. During these stops, although the car's mileage doesn't increase, the engine continues to run, leading to higher fuel consumption per 100 kilometers.
