2 Answers
The actual fuel consumption of the Kia K2 automatic 1.4 is 7.2 liters per 100 kilometers. Here is some relevant information: 1. Dimensions: The K2 measures 4370mm in length, 1700mm in width, and 1460mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2570mm, providing ample interior space. Although classified as a subcompact car, it nearly meets the standards of a compact car, making it highly competitive in today's subcompact car market. 2. Powertrain: The K2 is equipped with 1.4L and 1.6L engines. The 1.6L engine is likely the same as the one used in the Forte, delivering a maximum power of 90.4kW/6300rpm and a maximum torque of 155N•m/4200rpm. The 1.4L engine, model G4FA, produces a maximum power of 78.7kW/6300rpm and a maximum torque of 135N•m/5000rpm.
I've been driving a Kia K2 with a 1.4L automatic transmission for about a year and a half, mainly for commuting in the city. The average fuel consumption is around 8 to 9 liters per 100 kilometers. In heavy traffic, it can go up to 10 liters, while on the highway, it drops to about 7 liters. I've noticed that habits like rapid acceleration and frequent braking cause the fuel consumption to fluctuate. Also, driving with a full car or using the air conditioning consumes a bit more fuel. Regular maintenance is crucial too. Changing the engine oil and air filter on time keeps the engine running smoothly, saving at least half a liter of fuel. To save money, drive smoothly and avoid stomping on the gas pedal. With current high fuel prices, you can easily save thousands a year.
