What is the actual fuel consumption of the Corolla per 100 kilometers?
3 Answers
The actual fuel consumption of the Corolla per 100 kilometers is 9.5 liters. Here is the relevant introduction: 1. Toyota: Toyota Motor Corporation is a Japanese multinational automotive manufacturer listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TYO), Nagoya Stock Exchange (NAG), New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), and London Stock Exchange (LSE). 2. Fuel consumption differences: Poor driving skills can lead to increased fuel consumption. The same car driven by different people will have different fuel consumption. Only by summarizing experience and improving driving skills can the problem of high fuel consumption caused by driving techniques be solved.
As a veteran Corolla owner who has driven it for ten years, my 1.6L automatic model averages around 8.5L/100km in city commuting. On highways, it can drop to just over 6L, with the most fuel-efficient record being 5.9L/100km with AC on. But fuel consumption really depends on driving habits - when I lent it to my novice cousin, it soared to 10L/100km. Remember to regularly clean carbon deposits and replace air filters. Older models are particularly sensitive to low tire pressure - if all four tires are 0.3 bar underinflated, it can consume an extra 0.5L per 100km. The most fuel-efficient period is during spring and autumn without AC, with my most impressive record being 5.7L/100km.
According to actual test data, the real-world fuel consumption of the 1.6L Corolla models from 2007 to 2013 varies significantly. In congested urban conditions, it typically ranges between 9-11L. For scenarios like my daily school-run traffic jam where I'm stuck at the school gate, it easily exceeds 10L. The most ideal scenario is maintaining 60 mph on national highways, where consumption can drop to around 6.5L. The biggest influencing factors are vehicle age and maintenance - worn spark plugs can increase fuel consumption by 8%, and transmission fluid unchanged for three years may consume 1.5L more than a new car. I recommend installing an OBD scanner to monitor real-time fuel consumption yourself.
