The average actual fuel consumption of the fourth-generation Santa Fe is 8.9L/100km. The following is an introduction about Beijing Hyundai: 1. Introduction: Beijing Hyundai Motor Co., Ltd. (BEIJING-HYUNDAI AUTO, referred to as "Beijing Hyundai"). 2. Content: It is a Sino-foreign joint venture company engaged in the production and sales of automobiles, established on October 18, 2002, with its headquarters located in Beijing. Beijing Hyundai's product line covers sub-markets such as A0-class, A-class, B-class, and SUVs. 3. Development: In September 2018, the Passenger Car Association released the wholesale sales ranking of China's narrow passenger cars in August 2018, with Beijing Hyundai ranking 7th with sales of 71,006 units.

I've been driving the fourth-generation Hyundai Santa Fe, the 2019 2.0T model, with a real-world fuel consumption test averaging around 10 liters per 100 kilometers in daily driving. In urban areas, due to frequent stops and numerous traffic lights, the average rises to over 11 liters; on highways, it’s much more economical, dropping to 7.5 liters. Driving habits have the biggest impact on fuel consumption—aggressive acceleration or braking can easily push it up to 12 liters. Regular maintenance, such as oil changes and tire pressure checks, helps keep fuel consumption stable. Using the heater in winter or the AC in summer adds an extra 0.5-1 liter. Overall, the car’s fuel consumption isn’t particularly low, but it’s not excessive either—just average. As an SUV, its spaciousness makes it very practical for family use. For long trips, I always plan my route in advance to avoid traffic congestion, which helps save on fuel costs.

My friend owns a fourth-generation Santa Fe, and after driving it a few times, I found its real-world fuel consumption quite reliable. Comprehensive tests show it consumes between 9-11 liters per 100 km, with highway driving measured at just over 7 liters, and city traffic reaching up to 12 liters. The 2.0T engine is tuned to be relatively economical, but the heavy body and wind resistance naturally prevent the fuel consumption from being too low. External factors like cold weather or carrying a full load of luggage can increase it slightly. Data recorded by an app shows an average of 10 liters, slightly higher than the official lab test figures. To optimize, it's recommended to enable eco mode or use cruise control, which can bring it down to below 9 liters. Personally, I think compared to similar models like the Highlander, the fuel consumption difference isn't significant, but the Santa Fe excels in driving and handling. Keeping an eye on fuel levels over time and developing smooth shifting habits can make a noticeable difference.

My fourth-generation Santa Fe's real-world fuel consumption averages 10 liters per 100 km in daily driving. In heavy city traffic, it reaches 12 liters, while on smooth highways, it drops to just over 7 liters. Calculating the cost, it means spending a few hundred yuan more on fuel each month—not the most economical but acceptable. The key lies in driving habits: avoiding aggressive acceleration saves significant fuel, and maintaining proper tire pressure also helps. Compared to other SUVs, its fuel efficiency sits at a mid-range level.
