Is it normal for the Mazda6 to consume 1 yuan per kilometer in fuel?

It is not normal for the Mazda6 to consume 1 yuan per kilometer in fuel. The details are as follows: 1. Actual fuel consumption of the Mazda6: The actual fuel consumption of the Mazda6 ranges from 8.71 liters to 9.89 liters per 100 kilometers. Taking the maximum value of 9.89 liters as an example, and considering that the Mazda6 uses 92-octane gasoline, which currently costs 5.5 yuan per liter, the fuel cost per 100 kilometers for the owner would be 54.395 yuan, and the cost per kilometer would be 0.543 yuan. 2. Reducing fuel consumption: Develop good driving habits and strengthen vehicle maintenance. For example, regularly maintain the vehicle (such as cleaning carbon deposits, checking the engine control unit, changing the engine oil), cultivate good driving habits, avoid idling, frequent braking, or aggressive acceleration, try to maintain a constant speed while driving, choose roads with good conditions, reduce the vehicle's load, turn off the air conditioning when not needed, and maintain normal tire pressure to reduce the resistance between the car and the ground.
Old driver, I think your issue is quite common. Spending 1 yuan per kilometer on fuel for a Mazda6 isn't quite normal. I've been driving a Mazda6 for several years myself, and the normal fuel consumption should be around 7-9 liters per 100 kilometers. Assuming the fuel price is 7.5 yuan per liter, the cost per 100 kilometers would be approximately 50-70 yuan, which translates to 0.5 to 0.7 yuan per kilometer. Your 1 yuan per kilometer means you're spending 100 yuan per 100 kilometers, with fuel consumption exceeding 13 liters, which is higher than the standard range of 8-10 liters for a Mazda6. Possible reasons include aggressive driving habits, such as sudden acceleration and braking, or poor vehicle maintenance, like a dirty air filter or insufficient tire pressure. I recommend first checking the tire pressure and engine oil condition, then trying smoother driving and recording the fuel consumption a few times to see if it improves. If the issue persists, take it to a 4S shop for a comprehensive check—there might be a minor sensor issue. High fuel consumption not only costs more money but could also affect engine longevity, so timely action is crucial.
