What does 'one unit of fuel consumption' mean?
1 Answers
Generally speaking, 'one unit of fuel' refers to one liter of fuel. Here is relevant information: 1. Calculation method of car fuel consumption: Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers equals the volume of a certain amount of fuel (in liters) divided by the distance the car can travel (in kilometers) with that amount of fuel, multiplied by 100. For example, if a car consumes 4 liters of fuel to travel 50 kilometers, its fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is calculated to be 8 liters, commonly referred to as '8 units of fuel'. 2. A car's fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is not fixed: Different road conditions, load capacity, temperature, whether the air conditioning is on, and other factors all affect fuel consumption. When refueling in the city, it is not advisable to fill the fuel tank to the brim, as city driving often involves frequent stops and starts. A full fuel tank will increase the engine's load, resulting in weaker acceleration and higher fuel consumption.
