What is the fuel consumption calculation formula?
1 Answers
Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers equals fuel consumption (liters) divided by driving distance (kilometers) multiplied by 100. Below are the factors affecting fuel consumption and tips for saving fuel: Factors affecting car fuel consumption: Potholes on the road will increase fuel consumption. Driving in low gear for extended periods will inevitably increase fuel consumption. Overloading the trunk with heavy items will also increase fuel consumption. Incorrect driving habits can double or even triple fuel consumption. Driving at high speeds in low gear will consume more fuel. Neglecting engine maintenance will increase fuel consumption. Issues with the engine ignition system, such as incorrect ignition timing, leaking high-voltage wires, or spark plug carbon buildup causing weak ignition, can significantly reduce engine combustion efficiency and increase fuel consumption. Tips for saving fuel: When starting the vehicle, use a low gear and gently press the accelerator to gradually increase speed. Avoid suddenly pressing the accelerator hard, as this can multiply fuel consumption. A gentle start not only shortens the engine warm-up time but also effectively improves fuel utilization, thereby achieving fuel-saving effects.
