What is the actual fuel consumption of the KX1 automatic transmission?
1 Answers
The comprehensive fuel consumption of the KX1 is 5.7-5.8L/100km. There are currently 3 models of the 2021 KX1 available for sale. The CVT sunroof model and CVT Fun Edition have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 5.7L/100km. The manual Fun Edition has a comprehensive fuel consumption of 5.8L/100km. The above figures are the NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption, which is the data measured under the NEDC test procedure for combined driving conditions. The actual fuel consumption is higher than this value, ranging from 6.8-7.5L/100km. The level of a car's fuel consumption is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that can increase fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving behaviors such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before reaching traffic lights will increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger displacement generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacement because larger displacement usually means greater power output, requiring more gasoline for combustion. Heavier cars also have higher fuel consumption because greater weight requires more driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases the car's resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperature: When the engine block temperature is low during cold starts, the injected gasoline is harder to atomize, requiring more gasoline for combustion, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, at low temperatures, the engine control unit will command higher idle speeds to warm up the engine, further increasing fuel consumption.
