What is the actual fuel consumption of the 2011 Citroen C-Quatre?
1 Answers
2011 Citroen C-Quatre has a total of 6 discontinued models. Among them, four models equipped with a 147-horsepower engine (2011 Citroen C-Quatre Sedan 2.0L Manual New Year Edition, 2011 Citroen C-Quatre Hatchback 2.0L Automatic Elegance, 2011 Citroen C-Quatre Sedan 2.0L Automatic New Year Edition, and 2011 Citroen C-Quatre Hatchback 2.0L Manual Elegance) have an NEDC fuel consumption of 8.2L per 100km. The other two models equipped with a 106-horsepower engine (2011 Citroen C-Quatre Sedan 1.6L Manual Fashion and 2011 Citroen C-Quatre Hatchback 1.6L Manual Joy) have an NEDC fuel consumption of 7.8L per 100km. The fuel tank capacity varies among different models of the 2011 Citroen C-Quatre. The distance that can be covered with a full tank of fuel is as follows: For models equipped with a 147-horsepower engine, the fuel tank capacity is 60L, and the distance that can be covered with a full tank is 60/8.2*100=731km. For models equipped with a 106-horsepower engine, the fuel tank capacity is 60L, and the distance that can be covered with a full tank is 60/7.8*100=769km. The fuel consumption of a car is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that can increase fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before a red light, can increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger engine displacement generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacement because larger displacement usually means higher power, requiring more gasoline for combustion. Heavier cars also consume more fuel because greater weight requires more driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases car resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperature: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily, requiring more gasoline for combustion, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, at low temperatures, the engine computer controls the engine to run at higher RPMs to warm up, which also increases fuel consumption.
