Is an automatic transmission fuel consumption of 8 liters considered high?
1 Answers
An automatic transmission fuel consumption of 8 liters is considered low for a 2.0L engine; for a 1.5L or 1.6L engine, it is normal but not particularly fuel-efficient. Below is an introduction to fuel consumption: 1. Fuel consumption and engine displacement: Although fuel consumption is related to engine displacement, this relationship is not absolute. A larger cylinder volume (displacement) can hold more combustible mixture (air-fuel), so under otherwise identical conditions, an engine with a larger cylinder volume (displacement) will inevitably have higher fuel consumption. 2. Methods to save fuel: (1) Maintain good driving habits: Different driving habits can affect a car's fuel consumption. During driving, frequent rapid acceleration or deceleration can increase fuel consumption by 5%-10% compared to normal conditions. (2) Shift gears frequently: Switch to different gears according to different road conditions. For example, when going uphill, if you do not switch to L gear or low gear, the car's fuel consumption will increase.
