Is a fuel consumption of 10 liters per 100 kilometers normal for the Fit? A fuel consumption of 10 liters per 100 kilometers is normal for the Fit. Under normal circumstances, a fuel consumption of 5-7 liters per 100 kilometers is more common. If driving on highways or in congested conditions, fuel consumption may increase or decrease, with lows reaching 4 liters and highs reaching 10 liters. Here are some methods to reduce fuel consumption: Enhance vehicle maintenance: Regular adjustments and maintenance affect engine performance and driving resistance. Owners should schedule routine maintenance at automotive repair shops. Avoid sudden braking and acceleration: Smooth and steady driving is the most fuel-efficient. During acceleration, avoid pressing the accelerator pedal too hard. The correct method is to accelerate smoothly and maintain a steady speed once a certain velocity is reached. Maintain proper tire pressure: Insufficient tire pressure significantly increases rolling resistance, and misaligned or excessively worn tires may also increase fuel consumption. Avoid prolonged engine idling: Fuel consumption during idle is much higher than during normal driving, so avoid leaving the engine running for extended periods without moving. Keep the vehicle's aerodynamic resistance low: Avoid unreasonable modifications. For example, adding a roof rack can increase fuel consumption by 5%.
