What is the actual fuel consumption of the Golf 1.4?
1 Answers
The actual fuel consumption of the Golf 1.4T is around 8L/100KM. There are many factors that affect fuel consumption, such as: environmental road conditions, climate conditions, personal driving habits, and vehicle load. Below are the factors that influence fuel consumption: 1. Air temperature: In the early morning or winter, when temperatures are low, the cold weather requires the vehicle to spend more time warming up the engine, which consumes more fuel. Additionally, windy weather increases the vehicle's drag coefficient, and larger vehicles will have higher fuel consumption. 2. Road conditions: Cars rely on tire friction to move. If the road is flat and dry, with stable frictional resistance, the fuel consumption will be lower than the official figures. Conversely, slippery roads, slopes, curves, and mountainous roads will increase fuel consumption. 3. Air conditioning: Running the air conditioning at maximum settings while driving can increase fuel consumption by 5-25% compared to having it turned off.
