Is the fuel consumption high for a new car?
1 Answers
New cars have relatively high fuel consumption. Reasons for high fuel consumption in new cars: The fuel consumption of a new car is not stable. During the break-in period, new cars tend to consume more fuel because the components are tightly fitted, preventing the engine from operating at full efficiency, which ultimately leads to higher fuel consumption. Methods to minimize fuel consumption: Do not let the engine RPM go too high; it is best not to exceed 3,000 RPM. During a cold start, allow a warm-up period until the water temperature changes before driving, usually about one minute. Ensure the vehicle is not overloaded; it is advisable to keep the load within 70% of the specified capacity.
