What is the actual fuel consumption of the 1.4T Sagitar?
2 Answers
According to the comprehensive fuel consumption data from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the 1.4T version of the Sagitar has a combined fuel consumption of 5.6L/100km. Below is relevant information about the Sagitar: Introduction: The Sagitar is a joint venture A+ class sedan brand under FAW-Volkswagen. It was introduced to the Chinese market on April 9, 2006, and its predecessor was the fifth-generation Volkswagen Jetta sedan from Germany, positioned as a "German high-performance sedan". Development History: On April 9, 2006, Volkswagen AG introduced the fifth-generation Jetta compact sedan to the Chinese market and renamed it "Sagitar". In 2012, the Sagitar launched a new generation model, which was officially released after the Beijing Auto Show in March. In March 2019, FAW-Volkswagen introduced the new-generation Sagitar Long-Wheelbase based on the MQB-A2 platform, with a body length exceeding 4.7 meters and a wheelbase over 2.7 meters.
I've been driving a 1.4T Sagitar for nearly two years, mainly for daily urban commuting. During traffic jams, the fuel consumption rises to around 9 liters, with an average urban fuel consumption of 8.2 liters per 100 kilometers. On highways, it's much more fuel-efficient; maintaining a cruise control speed of 100 km/h can reduce fuel consumption to about 6.8 liters. Maintenance significantly impacts fuel efficiency—regular oil changes and proper tire pressure help stabilize it. Using air conditioning in summer increases fuel consumption by approximately 0.5 liters. Overall, driving habits are crucial; avoiding sudden acceleration helps maintain good fuel efficiency. Actual fuel consumption varies by individual circumstances, and I recommend measuring it several times after the break-in period for accuracy. Vehicle weight and road conditions also have a big impact, with more fluctuation in fuel consumption on hilly routes.
