What is the actual fuel consumption of the Mazda CX-30?
1 Answers
The Mazda CX-30 has a total of 8 models currently on sale. Among them, the 2020 2.0L X Spark Ignition Premium model is equipped with a 180-horsepower engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 5.5L per 100km. The seven models of the 2021 2.0L automatic series—Basic Comfort, Elegant Comfort, Premium Comfort, Shining Comfort, Noble Comfort, Classic Comfort, and Manual Classic Comfort—are equipped with a 158-horsepower engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 6.1L per 100km. The fuel tank capacity of the Mazda CX-30 is 51L. The distance that different models can travel on a full tank of fuel is as follows: Models equipped with the 180-horsepower engine can travel 51/5.5*100=927km on a full tank. Models equipped with the 158-horsepower engine can travel 51/6.1*100=836km on a full tank. The fuel consumption of a car 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, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before a red light, can increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger engine displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements usually mean higher power, requiring more gasoline to burn for work. Heavier cars also consume more fuel 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 car resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline is less likely to vaporize during a cold start, requiring more gasoline to burn, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, at low temperatures, the engine's computer controls higher RPMs to warm up the car, which also increases fuel consumption.
