I've been driving the Mercedes-Benz C260L for almost a year now. The official fuel consumption data is approximately 6.7-7.2 liters per 100 kilometers, but my average in city driving is around 8.5 liters. During traffic jams, it gets even more exaggerated, sometimes exceeding 10 liters. Driving habits make a big difference – for example, smooth acceleration, less braking, and reduced AC usage can bring it down below 8 liters. On highways with cruise control, it's more economical, usually around 6.8 liters. I make a habit of recording fuel refills and have noticed that regular engine maintenance, fresh oil changes, and proper tire care can slightly optimize fuel consumption. Otherwise, aggressive driving habits will burn through fuel quickly. Overall, as a luxury sedan, the C260L's fuel efficiency is quite reliable – not excessively high, but developing good habits can save a significant amount on daily expenses.

The official fuel consumption of the Mercedes-Benz C260L is approximately 7 liters per 100 kilometers in tests. However, in actual driving, I observed an average of 9 liters in urban areas, while it stabilizes at 7 liters on highways. The car is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine and a 48V mild hybrid system, which shows good energy recovery efficiency during deceleration. However, driving style determines everything. When I drive more aggressively, the fuel consumption exceeds 10 liters; with gentle handling and early gear shifts to maintain low RPM, it can easily be kept below 8.5 liters. Compared to its competitor, the BMW 3 Series, the C260L is slightly higher in fuel consumption, mainly due to body weight and aerodynamic drag, though its stronger power compensates for this. It is recommended to frequently use the start-stop function and cruise control, along with regular tire pressure checks, which can improve fuel economy by at least 10%. In conclusion, driving this car requires some skill, but its fuel consumption performance is acceptable.

The official fuel consumption of the C260L is around 7 liters per 100 kilometers. Based on my experience, the actual urban driving average is about 8.5 liters, while on highways it's around 7 liters. As someone who cares about the environment, I believe driving habits directly affect emissions. I recommend gentle acceleration and less sudden braking to reduce fuel consumption below 7.5 liters and lower carbon emissions. In cold weather, avoid idling the engine for too long to prevent wasting fuel. Plan routes to avoid congestion, and use navigation tools in the city to save both time and fuel. Regular maintenance, such as replacing the air filter, can improve combustion efficiency and save 10%-15% on fuel, which helps reduce pollution in the long run. The C260L may not be the most fuel-efficient model, but with reasonable driving, it can achieve both economy and environmental friendliness.

What is the Difference Between the On-the-Road Price and the Ex-Factory Price of a Car?

The differences between the on-the-road price and the ex-factory price of a car mainly lie in three aspects: included costs, definition standards, and influencing factors. Below are the specific details: 1. Included Costs: Ex-Factory Price: Refers to the price of purchasing the car itself, excluding any other fees. Generally, the manufacturer's suggested retail price (or the retail price minus market discounts, sometimes with additional markups for popular models) is the ex-factory price. On-the-Road Price: The total cost of purchasing the car and all necessary legal expenses to drive it, including purchase tax, insurance, vehicle and vessel tax, license plate fees, etc. 2. Different Definition Standards: Ex-Factory Price: The 4S store sets the ex-factory price based on the manufacturer's suggested retail price. On-the-Road Price: Generally, the on-the-road price = ex-factory price + insurance + purchase tax + license plate fees, etc. If there is a mortgage loan, mortgage handling fees will also be included. 3. Different Influencing Factors: Ex-Factory Price: Affected by various factors such as launch time, region, etc. On-the-Road Price: Influenced by the ex-factory price, car displacement, and selected insurance types.
