What is the fuel consumption of the Buick Regal 1.6t?

[Blanco]

The Buick Regal 1.6t has three models, including the 2015 1.6T Elite Tech, Fashion Tech, and Leading Tech versions, all equipped with a 184-horsepower engine. The NEDC fuel consumption is 8.2L per 100km, which is the official data. The fuel tank capacity of the Buick Regal 1.6t is 70L. With a full tank, it can travel approximately 70/8.2*100=853km. On national highways and spacious suburban roads, the Buick Regal consumes about 8 liters per 100km. In mountainous areas, provincial roads, and typical suburban areas, it consumes about 8.6 liters per 100km, while in urban roads, it consumes about 9.3 liters per 100km. 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 stopping at a red light, can increase fuel consumption. Vehicle itself: Cars with larger engine displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger engines typically produce more power and require more gasoline to burn and perform work. Heavier vehicles also consume more fuel due to the greater driving torque needed. 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 resistance and fuel consumption. Low ambient temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily, requiring more gasoline for combustion, thus increasing fuel consumption. Additionally, the engine control unit may increase the idle speed to warm up the engine, further increasing fuel consumption. Engine carbon deposits: Over time, carbon deposits and sludge can form during gasoline combustion. If not cleaned promptly, they can lead to increased fuel consumption. Spark plug failure: Spark plugs generate high-voltage sparks to ignite the air-fuel mixture. If damaged, the ignition energy decreases, leading to uneven combustion, slower acceleration, and increased fuel consumption. Abnormal tire pressure: Incorrect tire pressure can affect fuel consumption. Low tire pressure or severe tread wear increases the contact area between the tire and the road, increasing friction and rolling resistance, which naturally raises fuel consumption. Carrying heavy loads: Overloading increases the vehicle's weight and driving pressure, leading to higher fuel consumption. Poor fuel injector atomization: Clogged fuel injectors can significantly reduce atomization efficiency, increasing fuel consumption. Faulty car sensors: Malfunctioning sensors, such as the coolant temperature sensor, can cause the engine to misinterpret the car as being in a cold state, continuously signaling for more fuel injection, thus increasing fuel consumption.
