Is 9 Liters per 100 Kilometers Considered High Fuel Consumption?
1 Answers
9 liters per 100 kilometers refers to consuming 9 liters of fuel over a distance of 100 kilometers, which is not considered high fuel consumption. In the overall context of vehicle fuel efficiency, this falls within the normal range. Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is a theoretical indicator that measures the amount of fuel a vehicle consumes when traveling 100 kilometers on the road at a certain speed. Manufacturers determine this value by using a dynamometer installed on the vehicle's chassis in controlled environments. The measured values are converted into speed parameters, and then the vehicle is driven at specified speeds to calculate the theoretical experimental fuel consumption data per 100 kilometers for the model. Additional Information: Since most vehicles approach their most economical speed at around 90 km/h, the officially published theoretical fuel consumption figures are usually based on the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers at 90 km/h.
