Is the Chevrolet car fuel consumption high?
1 Answers
The comprehensive fuel consumption of Chevrolet is around 6.1-7.2L/100km. The specific fuel consumption standard should be based on actual usage, as fuel consumption is related to various factors, such as load, hill climbing, air conditioning use, low tire pressure, etc. Here are common causes and solutions: 1. When driving, try to avoid sudden acceleration and frequent braking: strive to maintain a steady speed while driving, and avoid sudden acceleration and deceleration. Do not press the accelerator pedal hard to accelerate. This will only greatly increase fuel consumption. In daily driving, especially in heavy traffic, waiting at red lights, or changing lanes, it is common to see the phenomenon of pressing the accelerator pedal hard. 2. Unnecessary increase in vehicle load: blindly installing large body kits, spoilers, winches, and roof racks on your car will also increase the vehicle's fuel consumption. Every increase in vehicle weight will correspondingly increase fuel consumption. 3. Engine oil not added according to the specified grade: The viscosity of engine oil is its main indicator. For example, in 15W-40, "W" stands for winter, and the smaller the number before it, the thinner the oil's viscosity and the better its fluidity, meaning it can be used in lower environmental temperatures and provides better engine protection during cold starts. The number after "W" is an indicator of the oil's high-temperature resistance. The larger the number, the better the oil's protective performance at high temperatures. Excessive selection of higher viscosity oil will increase the resistance of engine components, consuming more power and increasing fuel consumption.
