What is the actual fuel consumption of the new Focus?
2 Answers
The fuel consumption of the new Focus varies depending on the model. Here are some examples: 1. 5-speed manual: Equipped with a 1.0T-125 horsepower L3 engine, average fuel consumption is 6.85L, with a range of 6.02~7.67L. 2. 6-speed automatic manual: Equipped with a 1.0T-125 horsepower L3 engine, average fuel consumption is 8.04L, with a range of 6.89~9.19L. 3. 8-speed automatic: Equipped with a 1.0T-128 horsepower L3 engine, average fuel consumption is 7.64L, with a range of 6.28~8.99L.
I've been driving the new Focus for almost a year now, mainly for commuting, running around the city every day with fuel consumption around 8 to 9 liters per 100 kilometers. On highways for long trips, it can drop to about 6 liters, which is pretty good. To be honest, the actual fuel consumption depends on your driving habits—like mine with frequent traffic jams and sudden acceleration, the consumption is higher; but if you drive smoothly on suburban roads, you can save a lot of fuel. Weather also affects it, using the heater in winter or the AC in summer can add about half a liter. I use an app to track it, averaging around 8.5 liters, which is reasonable for a compact car. If you're worried about fuel costs, I suggest regularly checking tire pressure and maintaining the engine to keep fuel consumption stable and avoid unnecessary expenses.
