What is the fuel consumption of the 23-seat Coaster?
2 Answers
The fuel consumption of the Coaster is approximately 14.6L per 100 kilometers. Here are the specific details about the Coaster: 1. Vehicle positioning: The Coaster is positioned as a high-end medium-sized bus. 2. Power: The Coaster is equipped with a 4.0L V6 engine (6GR-FE), with a maximum output power of up to 171kW. At the same time, the engine also has multiple new features, including the dual VVT-i system it adopts, a compression ratio as high as 10.4, and optimized piston design, thereby improving the vehicle's driving performance and fuel economy. 3. Suspension: The high-end Coaster model has been upgraded to the same double-wishbone independent suspension as the luxury model, further enhancing the comfort of the ride.
I've been driving a 23-seat Coaster for several years, with fuel consumption typically ranging from 12 to 15 liters per 100 kilometers, depending on specific conditions. For example, it can reach 16 liters in city traffic jams, drop to just 11 liters at steady highway speeds, climb to 18 liters when fully loaded on uphill roads, and increase by 1-2 liters with air conditioning in summer. From my experience, maintenance is crucial—keeping tire pressure adequate, changing engine oil and air filters on time can reduce consumption by 0.5-1 liter. Driving habits also matter, like smoother acceleration and avoiding sudden braking. Additionally, older vehicles or poor road conditions may result in higher fuel consumption, so I recommend using fuel from reputable gas stations. On average, around 14 liters is quite common, but each vehicle varies slightly. Installing an app to track fuel usage can help monitor and save costs.
