What is the fuel consumption of Borgward?
2 Answers
Borgward BX7's actual fuel consumption is 10-11L per 100 kilometers. Vehicle-related factors affecting fuel consumption: As a control unit in the car, the oxygen sensor primarily monitors the air-fuel ratio of the engine. Once damaged, it will cause an imbalance in the engine's air-fuel ratio, leading to a sudden increase in fuel consumption. When the oxygen sensor is faulty, the exhaust pipe will emit darker-colored exhaust during driving. Impact of prolonged non-replacement of "three filters" on fuel consumption: During vehicle use, the three filters (oil filter, air filter, and fuel filter) must be replaced regularly. If not replaced for a long time, they will become dirty and clogged, affecting performance and sending incorrect signals to the engine control unit. This results in incomplete fuel combustion and increased engine carbon deposits.
The fuel consumption of Borgward depends on the model you drive and your driving habits. I drive a BX7, and after more than two years of use, I usually drive in the city. During traffic jams, the fuel consumption can reach 11 to 12 liters per 100 kilometers, but it drops to around 7 liters on the highway. On average, it's about 9 to 10 liters, which is quite reasonable considering it's an SUV and heavier. My neighbor drives a BX5, with city fuel consumption ranging from 8.5 to 9 liters and highway consumption at 6.5 liters, which is noticeably more fuel-efficient. Maintenance also affects fuel consumption. For example, regular oil changes and checking tire pressure helped me reduce fuel consumption by nearly one liter. Overall, Borgward's fuel consumption isn't the lowest but is acceptable. If you really want to save fuel, paying attention to your driving style is key.
