What is the fuel consumption of a Hummer?
2 Answers
Hummer models have a fuel consumption ranging between 25 to 30 liters per 100 kilometers. Below is an extended introduction to fuel consumption: 1. A car's fuel consumption is not only related to the car itself but also to the driving conditions and the driver's habits. Poor driving habits can increase fuel consumption. Frequent driving on congested roads will also raise fuel consumption. In traffic jams, cars often have to stop and go repeatedly. 2. Starting a car from a standstill requires significant acceleration, during which the engine needs to output substantial power. Frequent stop-and-go driving will inevitably increase fuel consumption. Moreover, when driving in traffic jams, the engine spends a portion of its time idling. During idling, the car's mileage does not increase, but the engine continues to consume fuel. This also leads to higher fuel consumption per 100 kilometers. 3. Personal driving habits greatly influence a car's fuel consumption. To improve fuel economy, the first step is to change driving habits. When driving, try to maintain a steady speed and avoid unnecessary overtaking. Regular maintenance of your car is also essential. Keeping up with maintenance ensures the car remains in good condition, which significantly helps in improving fuel economy.
I've been driving a Hummer H2 for almost five years, so I have a lot to say about fuel consumption. When driving frequently in the city, it easily consumes 25 liters per 100 kilometers, and can reach up to 30 liters in heavy traffic. On the highway, it's slightly more fuel-efficient, but still around 18 liters. My car has a 6.0-liter V8 engine and weighs nearly three tons, so every refueling session is painful. Later, I couldn’t take it anymore and started paying attention to my driving habits—like anticipating red lights to brake less, using the AC sparingly in summer, and maintaining a steady speed of 110 km/h on the highway. Now, I’ve managed to control the average consumption to around 22 liters. But honestly, if you choose a hardcore off-roader like the Hummer for its dominance in crossing ditches and climbing slopes, high fuel consumption is just the price you have to pay. Those who worry too much about fuel costs should probably look elsewhere.
