What does fuel consumption per 100 kilometers mean?
1 Answers
Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers refers to the amount of fuel a vehicle consumes when driving at a certain speed on the road for a distance of 100 kilometers. It is a theoretical indicator for vehicles. The fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is a value measured by manufacturers in an objective environment using a dynamometer installed on the vehicle's chassis, converted into speed parameters, and then calculated under specified speed conditions to derive the theoretical experimental fuel consumption data per 100 kilometers for the vehicle model. Relevant information about fuel consumption is as follows: 1. Introduction: Fuel consumption generally refers to constant-speed fuel consumption, which is the vehicle's fuel consumption per 100 kilometers obtained in fuel consumption tests conducted at constant speeds as specified by national standards for certain types of vehicles. 2. Testing method: The test can be conducted on the road or on a chassis dynamometer, and the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is then determined using the 'flow meter method' or 'carbon balance method'.
