What is the actual fuel consumption of the Talagon?

[SanJessica]

The actual fuel consumption of the Talagon is 7.2L-9.7L. Introduction: The Talagon is the latest flagship SUV under the Volkswagen brand. Configuration: The Talagon is the world's first SUV to adopt the "MQB41B platform + MQB-EVO advanced intelligent electrical architecture", utilizing in-vehicle Ethernet technology. It also upgrades the CAN bus to CANFD, increasing the bus bandwidth from 500K to 2M, with the core functional modules achieving a transmission efficiency of 100M/s. This enables the vehicle to be equipped with more intelligent driving assistance systems, providing faster interactive response speeds and allowing users to enjoy a smooth and natural operating experience at all times.

The fuel consumption of the Talagon really depends on how you drive it. I own the 380TSI 4WD version. For daily city driving with AC on, often stuck in traffic while dropping off/picking up kids, the dashboard shows 12-14L/100km which is normal, but real-world measurement adds about 1L more. On suburban expressways during weekends, it can be most fuel-efficient at 8.9L, but even highway cruising with all seven seats occupied still consumes over 9L. The 74L fuel tank isn't small, but city commuting requires refueling weekly. To save fuel, learn to anticipate road conditions - its coasting function works great; releasing the throttle early at red lights saves quite a bit. Remember to maintain tire pressure at 2.6 and avoid overloading the trunk, these details can all help reduce consumption slightly.

Just helped a friend test drive the 330 2WD Teramont a couple of days ago. He drives aggressively, and in the city, it easily hits 15 liters per 100km, while cruising at 120 km/h on the highway still consumes over 10 liters. I tried driving in eco mode, gently pressing the throttle and braking less, which brought the city consumption down to around 11.5 liters. A key observation: the transmission logic is quite conservative, and frequent start-stop at low speeds is particularly fuel-intensive. If you often drive in congested urban areas, it's advisable to turn off the auto start-stop. Actual tests show the fuel consumption is over 2 liters higher than the official combined figure of 8.7 liters, understandable given the vehicle's weight of over two tons. Potential buyers should be mentally prepared, as the fuel cost per kilometer is about 0.3 yuan higher than that of a sedan.

After two years of driving the Touareg 530 V6, the most noticeable observation is how significantly road conditions affect performance. During peak morning and evening traffic jams, fuel consumption can spike to 17L/100km, while weekend interstate highway drives can bring it down to 8L. Last year's long-distance road test showed: cruising at 110km/h on highways averaged 9.3L/100km, increasing by 0.8L with roof racks and cargo boxes. For city driving, using auto-hold is recommended as start-stop systems actually increase fuel consumption. Using 95-octane fuel saves 0.5L/100km compared to 92-octane, proving more economical long-term. Remember to replace air filters promptly - dirty filters can increase fuel consumption by 5%.
