What is the actual fuel consumption of the Subaru XV?
2 Answers
The actual fuel consumption of the Subaru XV ranges from 6.4 to 7.2 liters per 100 kilometers. Taking the 2021 Subaru XV as an example, its body structure is a five-door, five-seat SUV with the following dimensions: length 4495mm, width 1800mm, height 1615mm, wheelbase 2665mm, front track 1550mm, rear track 1555mm, fuel tank capacity 63 liters, trunk capacity 1220 liters, and curb weight 1452kg. The 2021 Subaru XV features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a double-wishbone rear suspension. It is equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 154PS, maximum power of 113kW, and maximum torque of 196Nm, paired with a continuously variable transmission.
I've been driving a Subaru XV for several years, mainly commuting in the city with an average fuel consumption of around 10 liters per 100 kilometers; on highways, it drops to between 7.5 and 8 liters. The car is equipped with a horizontally opposed engine and full-time four-wheel drive, which results in slightly higher fuel consumption at startup, but it can be kept within a reasonable range if traffic conditions are smooth. Regular maintenance has a significant impact: insufficient tire pressure can increase fuel consumption by 0.5 liters, while using high-quality engine oil and cleaning the air filter can slightly improve it. In summer, with the air conditioning on, fuel consumption can rise to over 11 liters, and it's slightly better in winter. Overall, don't expect too low consumption in urban congestion, but the safety and driving experience make this consumption worth bearing.
