What is the actual fuel consumption of the Changan Eado 1.6?
1 Answers
Changan Eado 1.6 has a combined fuel consumption of 5.7-5.8L/100km. Currently, there are 4 models of Changan Eado 1.6 available for sale: the manual luxury model and manual elite model, both with a combined fuel consumption of 5.7L/100km; the CVT elite model and CVT luxury model, both with a combined fuel consumption of 5.8L/100km. The above figures are NEDC combined fuel consumption, which is the fuel consumption data measured under the NEDC test procedure. The actual fuel consumption is higher than this value, ranging from 6.5-7.0L/100km. Specific factors affecting car fuel consumption are as follows: Car weight: Larger and heavier cars consume more fuel. Generally, a small family car with a 1.6L engine weighs around 1.2 tons and consumes about 7.5 liters of fuel (calculated under full load), while an SUV weighing around 1.5 tons consumes about 8.5 liters. Different weights result in different fuel consumption. Air resistance: Higher air resistance increases fuel consumption during driving. Cars with better aerodynamics have lower air resistance, leading to lower fuel consumption. Economical RPM: The engine has a most economical torque output point during driving. Maintaining the car's speed at this torque output point significantly reduces fuel consumption. Generally, small-displacement cars reach this point at around 70 km/h, while larger-displacement cars reach it at about 100 km/h. Keeping the speed within this economical RPM range ensures minimal fuel consumption. Driving style: Aggressive driving behaviors such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before red lights increase fuel consumption.
