What is the actual fuel consumption of the Terra?

[StValentina]

The automatic transmission Terra has a fuel consumption of around 12L/100km, while the manual transmission Terra consumes approximately 10L/100km. The following are specific details about the Terra: Interior: The interior design is simple and elegant, with seats maintaining Nissan's excellent tradition of being soft and comfortable, not compromising quality despite being a rugged off-road vehicle. Powertrain: The Terra is equipped with only one 2.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum power of 135kW (184PS)/6000rpm and a maximum torque of 251Nm/4000rpm, paired with a JATCO 7-speed automatic transmission.

Last year, I bought a Terra and usually drive it to commute. The city traffic is often congested, and the fuel consumption typically ranges between 13 to 14 liters per 100 kilometers. On weekends when I take friends out for trips, it drops to around 11 liters on the highway. Real fuel consumption isn’t fixed—it heavily depends on driving habits. Rapid acceleration and hard braking definitely consume more fuel. I’ve tried driving more gently, and it does save a bit. Turning on the AC in summer directly adds about a liter to the consumption. I believe maintenance is also crucial—regular oil changes and checking tire pressure are essential, as low tire pressure significantly increases fuel consumption. This car has strong power and handles slopes easily, but its fuel consumption is average among similar SUVs—not the most fuel-efficient, but acceptable for daily commuting. I recommend paying attention to the fuel gauge and adjusting driving style accordingly.

As a driver who frequently takes long-distance trips, I've found that the actual fuel consumption of the Terra is quite affected by road conditions. In city traffic with frequent stops and starts and the air conditioning on, it easily reaches 14 liters per 100 kilometers. On the highway at a steady cruise, it's around 10 to 11 liters. The 2.5L engine provides ample power but isn't particularly fuel-efficient, and the vehicle's weight and wind resistance also play a role. Some fuel-saving tips: press the accelerator gently and avoid speeding; regularly maintain the air filter, as a dirty one can increase fuel consumption; when fully loaded with cargo or passengers, fuel consumption rises significantly. After driving this car for three years, my average is around 12 liters—not the most economical, but the spacious interior is great for family trips, so I just budget a bit more for fuel each month. Keeping track of fuel consumption regularly can save quite a bit once you get into the habit.

The fuel consumption of the Terra is definitely not constant. It averages 13 liters per 100 kilometers in urban driving conditions, and 9 to 11 liters on highways. There are too many influencing factors: aggressive driving habits can drastically increase fuel consumption; the heavy body and high wind resistance are somewhat manageable on highways; air conditioning or heating consumes more fuel in traffic jams. Poor maintenance, such as dirty filters, can also drive up fuel consumption. Don't just focus on the data—recording actual driving values is more realistic.
