What is the actual fuel consumption of the Land Cruiser 4700?
2 Answers
The Land Cruiser 4700 has a comprehensive fuel consumption of around 18L per 100 kilometers, which may vary depending on individual driving habits. Methods to reduce fuel consumption: Not turning off the engine during prolonged traffic jams: Generally, if the traffic jam lasts more than 5 minutes or if the vehicles ahead are not moving, it is advisable to turn off the engine and wait. Driving in low gear for extended periods: The engine, accelerator pedal, and gear must work in perfect harmony to deliver the most economical and optimal power output. Using a gear that is either 'ahead' or 'behind' will result in 'dragging the gear,' where the speed does not increase, and fuel is wasted unnecessarily. Therefore, it is best to avoid driving in low gear whenever possible. Once conditions permit, shift to a higher gear and maintain a moderate speed for the most fuel-efficient driving.
I've been driving a Toyota Land Cruiser 4700 for several years as my daily commuter. The real fuel consumption depends on driving habits. It's highest in city traffic, averaging around 18 liters per 100 kilometers, while on highways it can drop to 15 liters. Overall, it's about 16 to 18 liters. With its large 4.7L engine, this car is a fuel guzzler, but it's comfortable, spacious, and stable. Traffic jams significantly increase fuel consumption, so I recommend avoiding peak hours. Regular maintenance, like changing spark plugs, can slightly reduce consumption. Overall, it's not fuel-efficient, but you get used to it.
