Is the fuel consumption of the Porsche 718 high?
2 Answers
The fuel consumption of the Porsche 718 is relatively high in urban areas, but it is within an acceptable range. Method for calculating fuel consumption: Vehicle fuel consumption is calculated based on the fuel consumed per 100 kilometers (usually referred to as 100 kilometers). The actual fuel consumption can be calculated as follows: average fuel consumption = (total fuel added - last fuel added) / distance traveled. Simply put, fill up the fuel tank, note the mileage (the vehicle can also record it automatically), drive until half the fuel is consumed, then refill the tank. Before refueling, check the mileage to see how many kilometers were driven, then divide the distance traveled by the amount of fuel added this time. Factors affecting fuel consumption: Factors such as vehicle weight, tires, wind resistance, and load can also affect fuel consumption. Therefore, to achieve better fuel economy, avoid running the engine at high RPMs, and you can release the throttle to let the vehicle coast downhill. Replacing tires with low rolling resistance can also help save fuel to some extent.
The fuel consumption of the Porsche 718 isn't too high, especially compared to other sports cars in its class. When I drive it, the fuel consumption drops to 9 liters per 100 kilometers during highway cruising, which is quite economical. In city traffic with frequent stops and starts, it can go up to around 12-13 liters, but that's the trade-off for the powerful performance. Driving the 718 is more about the handling and the thrill of acceleration, so a slightly higher fuel cost is worth it. Avoiding aggressive throttle inputs and driving smoothly can help save fuel, and using 95 or 98 octane gasoline can also improve efficiency a bit. Compared to other sports cars like the BMW Z4 or Audi TT, the 718's fuel consumption is moderate and not excessively high. Maintaining standard tire pressure when changing tires and keeping up with maintenance, such as cleaning the air filter, can also help with fuel efficiency. Over time, you won't find it bothersome.
