What is the fuel consumption of the Accord 10?
2 Answers
The Accord 10 currently has 9 models on sale. Among them, the Accord 2018 Hybrid 2.0L Rui Zun Edition National VI and Rui Zhi Edition National VI, totaling 2 models, are equipped with a 146-horsepower engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 4.4L per 100km. The Accord 2018 Hybrid 2.0L Rui Ling Edition National VI and Rui Ku Edition National VI, totaling 2 models, also equipped with a 146-horsepower engine, have an NEDC fuel consumption of 4.2L per 100km. The Accord 2018 260TURBO Flagship Edition National VI, Premium Edition National VI, Luxury Edition National VI, and Elite Edition National VI, totaling 4 models, are equipped with a 194-horsepower engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 6L per 100km. The Accord 2018 230TURBO Comfort Edition National VI, totaling 1 model, is equipped with a 177-horsepower engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 6.4L per 100km. The fuel tank capacity is the same for all Accord 10 models. The distance that can be covered with a full tank of fuel is as follows: Models with a 146-horsepower engine have a fuel tank capacity of 48.5L, and the distance that can be covered with a full tank is 48.5/4.4*100=1102km. Models with a 146-horsepower engine have a fuel tank capacity of 48.5L, and the distance that can be covered with a full tank is 48.5/4.2*100=1155km. Models with a 194-horsepower engine have a fuel tank capacity of 56L, and the distance that can be covered with a full tank is 56/6*100=933km. Models with a 177-horsepower engine have a fuel tank capacity of 56L, and the distance that can be covered with a full tank is 56/6.4*100=875km. The fuel consumption of a car is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that can increase fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before a red light, can increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger engine displacement generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacement because larger displacement usually means higher power, requiring more gasoline to burn and perform work. Heavier cars also consume more fuel because greater weight requires more driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases the car's resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not vaporize easily, requiring more gasoline to be injected for combustion, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, at low temperatures, the engine's computer will control the engine to run at higher RPMs to warm up, which also increases fuel consumption.
I've been driving the gasoline version of the Accord 10 for a while now. The official combined fuel consumption is around 7.5L/100km, but in actual city driving, especially during rush hour traffic jams, it can jump to 9-10L. On highways, it's more economical at 6-7L. The hybrid version is much smarter, with a combined fuel consumption of just over 5L. Starting with electric power is particularly smooth, and it can go even lower if you don't use air conditioning or carry less load. However, you'll need to spend more upfront when buying the car, but you can save that back over time. Daily driving habits have a big impact. I'm used to gently accelerating and reducing sudden braking, which helps keep fuel consumption at its lowest. Regular maintenance like air filter checks and oil changes is also important, as older cars tend to consume more fuel. Overall, the Accord 10's fuel consumption is average, but the hybrid version is more worth considering, especially now with rising fuel prices, as it can save you a lot on daily expenses.
