What does 6 fuel consumption mean in terms of fuel consumption per 100 kilometers?
2 Answers
100 kilometers consumes 6 liters of fuel. Constant-speed fuel consumption is the vehicle's fuel consumption per 100 kilometers obtained in the constant-speed driving fuel consumption test specified by national standards for certain types of vehicles. These types of vehicles include: 1. M1 class: Compressed natural gas vehicles of M2 and N1 classes with a maximum design total mass not exceeding 3.5t. M1 and N1 class vehicles with a maximum design total mass not exceeding 3.5t, tested according to the test method specified in GB/T12545.1-2008 "Test methods for fuel consumption of passenger cars". 2. Others: Compressed natural gas vehicles of M2, M3, N2, and N3 classes with a maximum design total mass exceeding 3.5t. M2, M3 class vehicles and N class vehicles with a maximum total mass greater than or equal to 2t, tested according to the test method specified in GB/T12545.2-2001 "Test methods for fuel consumption of commercial vehicles".
Last time I accompanied a friend to a 4S dealership to look at cars, the salesperson kept saying this car consumes '6 liters of oil,' meaning it burns 6 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers. Having driven many cars, this fuel consumption is quite economical for a regular family car. For example, my 1.6L sedan consumes about 7 liters in city driving, so keeping it at 6 is really impressive. However, actual driving conditions also matter—if you're stuck in traffic every day, it will definitely exceed 6 liters. Crunching the numbers, at the current fuel price of 8 yuan per liter, driving 100 kilometers costs only 48 yuan, which is much cheaper than hiring a private car. For long-distance road trips, this fuel efficiency can save a lot of money on gas.
