2 Answers
The average comprehensive fuel consumption of the Citroen C5 is around 10 to 11 liters, with about 7 liters on highways and 12 liters in the city. Below is the relevant information: 1. The front face of the C5 doesn't look aggressive or unique; it has a very gentle appearance. The interior atmosphere of the C5 is very high-quality, specifically giving off a sense of understated luxury. Everywhere you touch is made of soft materials, and the craftsmanship is quite generous. 2. The Citroen C5 Automatic Premium model is equipped with a 1.8T 204-horsepower turbocharged direct-injection engine, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission. The engine has a maximum torque of 280N·m, with a torque range of 1400-4000 rpm, a top speed of 235 km/h, an official 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 8.3 seconds, an official comprehensive fuel consumption of 6.6L/100km, and an average owner fuel consumption of around 9.5L/100km.
A friend of mine has been driving a Citroen C5 2.3L for several years. The real fuel consumption is around 9 to 10 liters per 100 kilometers in the city, and slightly lower on the highway, roughly 7.5 to 8 liters. During his daily commute with heavy traffic, the fuel consumption is higher, but it saves more when driving on highways during holidays. Driving habits also have a big impact. For example, he likes to step on the accelerator hard, which directly spikes the fuel consumption. It's recommended to drive steadily, avoid sudden braking and acceleration, and not to turn the air conditioning too high. Additionally, as the car ages, say over ten years, the fuel consumption can increase to more than 11 liters. It's best to perform regular maintenance and replace air filters and such. Overall, you have to consider the actual usage environment, not just the advertised data.
