What is the fuel consumption of the 2007 LaCrosse 2.4?
2 Answers
2.4L LaCrosse has a fuel consumption of 10.4 liters per 100 kilometers. Light throttle application: When starting at low speeds, the car is in the peak fuel consumption zone. Therefore, lightly pressing the throttle during startup and preventing excessively high RPM can effectively reduce fuel consumption. Avoid high RPM: Try to avoid unnecessary high RPM as much as possible, as fluctuating engine speeds can also significantly increase fuel consumption. Regular maintenance: Change the engine oil and remove carbon deposits. Avoid emergency braking: Anticipating road conditions in advance not only improves driving safety but also saves fuel, such as gradually slowing down before traffic lights and utilizing inertia to coast.
As a car enthusiast who has studied many classic vehicles, the 2007 Buick LaCrosse 2.4L doesn't perform ideally in terms of fuel consumption. According to official data, it averages about 14-16 liters per 100 kilometers in city driving and approximately 10-12 liters per 100 kilometers on highways. However, these are just reference values, and actual fuel economy varies by driver. If you frequently drive in congested urban areas, consumption could rise to around 18 liters per 100 km. The primary reasons are the relatively outdated engine technology of that era - the 2.4L naturally aspirated engine provides adequate power but with low efficiency, compounded by the vehicle's weight exceeding 1.5 tons. Additionally, maintenance condition is crucial; neglected upkeep in older cars (such as worn spark plugs or underinflated tires) can further increase fuel consumption. Overall, this LaCrosse is relatively fuel-efficient on highways but consumes more in city commuting. Regular vehicle inspections are recommended to improve efficiency.
