What is the actual fuel consumption of the Nissan Patrol 4.0?
1 Answers
The Nissan Patrol 4.0L has three models: the 2018 Patrol 4.0L Platinum, Flagship, and Leader Edition, all equipped with a 279 horsepower engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 11.9L per 100km. The fuel tank capacity of the Nissan Patrol is 100L. The distance that can be covered on a full tank of fuel is as follows: For models equipped with the 279 horsepower engine, the distance that can be covered on a full tank is 100/11.9*100=840km. The fuel consumption of a vehicle is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the vehicle 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 stopping at a red light, can increase fuel consumption. The vehicle itself: Vehicles with larger engine displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements usually mean higher power output, requiring more gasoline for combustion. Heavier vehicles 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 vehicle resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily, requiring more gasoline for combustion, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, at low temperatures, the engine control unit may increase idle speed to warm up the engine, further increasing fuel consumption.
