What is considered a low fuel consumption per 100 kilometers?
2 Answers
Generally speaking, the average fuel consumption for urban driving is around 7.5L, costing approximately 0.5~0.7 yuan per kilometer, which can be considered relatively fuel-efficient. Below is more information about vehicle fuel consumption: Introduction: Fuel consumption generally refers to constant-speed fuel consumption, which is the vehicle's fuel consumption per 100 kilometers obtained in constant-speed driving fuel consumption tests specified by national standards for certain types of vehicles. Calculation Method: Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers equals fuel consumption (liters) divided by driving distance (kilometers) multiplied by 100. The fuel consumption per 100 kilometers indicated in the manuals of domestic vehicles is usually constant-speed fuel consumption. Constant-speed fuel consumption refers to the fuel economy indicator when the vehicle is driving at a constant speed on good road surfaces.
As someone who drives to work daily, I consider any car with fuel consumption under 7L/100km to be quite fuel-efficient. Especially for compact models like the Corolla or Sylphy, maintaining around 6.5L in city driving with AC on during summer is ideal. Of course, fuel efficiency depends on driving conditions - highway driving is definitely more economical than being stuck in city traffic. When I first changed cars, I noticed that simple habits like maintaining proper tire pressure, carrying less luggage, and avoiding aggressive acceleration can easily reduce fuel consumption by 0.5L. With current fuel prices being so high, I'd say any car that can break the 7L barrier is worth considering.
