What is the average fuel consumption of the Teana?
2 Answers
The comprehensive fuel consumption of the Teana is 5.9-6.7L/100km. Currently, there are 6 models of the Teana available for sale. The comprehensive fuel consumption of the Fashion Edition, Intelligent Navigation Edition, and Comfort Edition is 5.9L/100km. The comprehensive fuel consumption of the Intelligent Enjoyment Navigation Edition and Intelligent Advance Edition is 6.6L/100km. The comprehensive fuel consumption of the Intelligent Premium Navigation Edition is 6.7L/100km. The above figures are the NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption, which is the fuel consumption data measured under the NEDC test procedure. The actual fuel consumption is higher than this value, ranging from 7.0-9.0L/100km. When driving, the following 5 tips can help reduce fuel consumption: During the starting process, the vehicle should start in a low gear, gently press the accelerator, and gradually increase speed. Avoid suddenly pressing the accelerator hard, as this can multiply fuel consumption. Light acceleration, light braking, and early braking: When driving, gently press the accelerator to avoid sudden increases in engine speed and prevent the car from shaking during driving, thereby making the car more fuel-efficient. By anticipating road conditions and adopting slow and uniform acceleration or braking, fuel economy can be increased by up to 20%. Maintain proper tire pressure: Keep the tire pressure at the level recommended by the manufacturer. For every 2 PSI below the recommended value (equivalent to about 0.2 in the metric system relative to the standard pressure of 2.4), fuel consumption increases by 1%. Regular vehicle maintenance or inspection: Regular oil changes can reduce carbon deposits (carbon deposits can cause ignition issues, sluggish acceleration, increased fuel consumption, and even cylinder misfires in severe cases); regularly check and replace the air filter if it is dirty, and clean or replace the fuel injectors, spark plugs, and throttle body according to mileage. Close the windows while driving. Driving with the windows open increases wind resistance, and the greater the wind resistance, the more resistance the car faces, requiring more power and thus increasing fuel consumption.
I've been driving the Teana for four years, mainly commuting in the city. Traffic jams during peak hours are the norm, and fuel consumption often spikes to 10 liters per 100 kilometers. On weekends, when I take the highway back to my hometown, the fuel consumption drops to around 6.5 liters per 100 kilometers, averaging a stable 8.5 liters per 100 kilometers. I use the ECO driving mode to save some fuel, and regular maintenance like changing the air filter and engine oil does help the car run more efficiently. Remember to keep the tire pressure normal and avoid carrying too much stuff to better control fuel consumption. In summer, using the air conditioning increases fuel consumption by about 1 liter, and in winter, the longer warm-up time also has some impact, but these are not major issues. Before buying the car, I compared different engine displacements. The 2.0-liter Teana is slightly more fuel-efficient than the 2.5-liter version. Mine is the 2.0-liter, which is quite suitable for daily driving.
