What is the fuel consumption of the 508?

[VonBryce]

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) states that the Peugeot 508's combined fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is around 6L. However, according to incomplete statistics, models equipped with the 1.6T engine have a fuel consumption ranging from 6.91-8.37L per 100 kilometers, while those with the 1.8T engine consume between 7.02-9.25L per 100 kilometers. The actual fuel consumption of the Peugeot 508 remains within the expected range. Decreased engine performance: When a car's engine performance significantly declines, it is often accompanied by increased fuel consumption. This is likely due to prolonged periods without changing the engine oil, oil filter, air filter, and fuel filter, leading to incomplete fuel combustion and increased engine carbon deposits. Excessive carbon buildup can indeed raise fuel consumption. Extended idling: Leaving the car running without turning off the engine for long periods can be quite fuel-intensive, especially during summer when idling with the air conditioning on while waiting.
