What is the actual fuel consumption of the Prado 27?
2 Answers
This vehicle has an actual combined fuel consumption of 13.8L/100km. Below is relevant information about this model: Introduction: The Prado (also known as the Land Cruiser Prado) is the latest model in Toyota's Land Cruiser series. This newly developed next-generation off-road vehicle is equipped with Toyota's newly developed 1GR four-cylinder electronic fuel injection engine, with a displacement of 2,694cc. It offers excellent power performance and meets the latest Euro III emission standards, making it highly environmentally friendly. Exterior: The changes in the new Prado mainly focus on the front and rear. The newly designed headlights are sharper than the current model, and the vertical bars of the chrome-plated grille are thicker, similar to the Australian version. The redesigned front bumper protrudes outward, sits lower, and features round fog lights. The redesigned rear door and rear fender have a more muscular appearance compared to the current model, and the side window area behind the C-pillar is slightly reduced due to the thicker D-pillar.
I've been driving a Toyota Prado 2700 for several years. The real fuel consumption is particularly high in city traffic jams, reaching over 18L/100km, but it drops a bit on highways, around 12 to 14L. On average, it's about 15L overall, which is still normal considering its large size and strong power. There are many influencing factors, such as aggressive throttle use quickly increasing fuel consumption. I recommend developing smooth driving habits and avoiding sudden braking. I've also found that regularly checking tire pressure is crucial, as insufficient pressure increases resistance and leads to higher fuel consumption. Running the air conditioning at full blast adds about 1-2L each time, especially in summer when it's easy to exceed the budget. On long trips, I'm accustomed to using apps to record data for more accurate route adjustments, which has saved me a lot on car maintenance costs.
