What is the actual fuel consumption of the Orlando?
1 Answers
The official fuel consumption of the Orlando is announced as 7.4-9.0L/100km. The comprehensive fuel consumption of this model is 6.1L/100km. There are currently 5 models of the Orlando on sale: the Auto Enjoy Edition (5-seater), Auto Enjoy Edition (5+2-seater), Auto Premium Edition (5-seater), Auto Premium Edition (5+2-seater), and Auto Luxury Edition (5+2-seater), all with a comprehensive fuel consumption of 6.1L/100km. The above figures are NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption, which are measured under the NEDC test procedure and represent combined driving condition fuel consumption data. Actual fuel consumption is higher than this value. Vehicle fuel consumption is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the vehicle itself, road conditions, natural wind, and ambient temperature. Specific factors that 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 vehicle itself: Vehicles with larger displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements typically mean greater power output, requiring more gasoline for combustion. Heavier vehicles also consume more fuel due to the greater driving torque needed. 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 ambient temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily during cold starts, requiring more gasoline for combustion, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, at low temperatures, the engine control unit will use higher RPMs to warm up the engine, further increasing fuel consumption.
