Is a 10L/100km urban fuel consumption high for the Sylphy?
1 Answers
The comprehensive fuel consumption of the Sylphy ranges from 3.9-6.1L/100km. There are 11 models of the 2022 Sylphy currently on sale, among which 4 e-POWER models have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 3.9L/100km. The automatic transmission Yuexiang and Zhixiang versions have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 4.9L/100km. The automatic transmission Comfort, Luxury, and Premium versions have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 5.2L/100km. The automatic transmission Shuxiang version has a comprehensive fuel consumption of 5.3L/100km. The manual transmission Comfort version has a comprehensive fuel consumption of 6.1L/100km. The above figures are NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption, which are the fuel consumption data measured under the NEDC test procedure. Real-world fuel consumption is higher than these values, ranging from 6.3-12.0L/100km. Specific factors affecting car fuel consumption are as follows: Vehicle weight: Larger and heavier vehicles consume more fuel. Generally, a small family car with a 1.6L engine, weighing around 1.2 tons, has a fuel consumption of about 7.5 liters (calculated under full load conditions), while an SUV weighing around 1.5 tons has a fuel consumption of about 8.5 liters. Different weights lead to varying fuel consumption. Drag coefficient: Higher drag increases fuel consumption during driving. Vehicles with better aerodynamics have lower drag coefficients, resulting in lower fuel consumption. Economical RPM: The engine has an optimal torque output point during driving. Maintaining the vehicle speed within this torque output range significantly reduces fuel consumption. Generally, small-displacement vehicles achieve this at around 70 km/h, while larger-displacement vehicles achieve it at about 100 km/h. Staying within this economical RPM range ensures minimal fuel consumption. Driving style: Aggressive driving behaviors such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before red lights increase fuel consumption.
