Is the Jeep Compass Fuel Consumption High?
1 Answers
The comprehensive fuel consumption of the Jeep Compass ranges from 6.0-7.6L/100km. Currently, there are 7 models of the 2021 Jeep Compass available for sale. The automatic comfort version has a comprehensive fuel consumption of 6.0L/100km; the automatic luxury version is 6.3L/100km; the automatic four-wheel-drive high-performance flagship version is 7.6L/100km; the automatic four-wheel-drive elite version and the automatic four-wheel-drive 80th anniversary edition both have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 7.3L/100km; the automatic elite version and the automatic leading version have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 6.2L/100km. The above figures are the NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption, which is the fuel consumption data measured under the NEDC test procedure. The actual fuel consumption is higher than these values, ranging from 5.7-9.3L/100km. The specific factors affecting a car's fuel consumption are as follows: Car weight: Larger and heavier cars tend to consume more fuel. Generally, a small family car with a 1.6L engine and a weight of about 1.2 tons has a fuel consumption of approximately 7.5 liters (calculated under full load), while an SUV weighing about 1.5 tons consumes around 8.5 liters. Different weights lead to varying fuel consumption. Air resistance: Higher air resistance increases fuel consumption during driving. Cars with better aerodynamics have lower air resistance, resulting in lower fuel consumption. Economical RPM: The engine has a most economical torque output point during driving. Maintaining the car's speed within this torque output point can significantly reduce fuel consumption. Typically, small-displacement cars achieve this at around 70 km/h, while larger-displacement cars reach it at about 100 km/h. Staying within this economical RPM range ensures minimal fuel consumption. Driving style: Aggressive driving behaviors such as rapid acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before encountering a red light can increase fuel consumption.
