What is the fuel consumption of the Crown Land Cruiser?
2 Answers
The actual fuel consumption of the Crown Land Cruiser is 6.0-7.0L/100km. The currently available Crown Land Cruiser models include six variants: the 2021 2.5L HEV 4WD Premium Edition, HEV 4WD Luxury Edition, HEV 2WD Basic Edition, HEV 4WD Flagship Edition, HEV 2WD Elite Edition, and HEV 4WD Elite Edition. The official NEDC combined fuel consumption ranges from 5.3-5.8L/100km. Among vehicles in the same class, the Highlander has an NEDC combined fuel consumption of 3.1-4.0L/100km, the BMW X1 ranges from 6.1-9.2L/100km, the Audi Q3 is between 6.7-7.5L/100km, and the Cadillac XT4 has an NEDC combined fuel consumption of 7.2-7.6L/100km. Vehicle fuel consumption is directly influenced by five major factors: driving habits, the vehicle itself, road conditions, natural wind, and ambient temperature. Details are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving behaviors such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before a red light can increase fuel consumption. The vehicle itself: Cars with larger engine displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements typically produce more power, requiring more gasoline for combustion. Heavier vehicles also have higher fuel consumption due to the greater driving torque needed. Road conditions: Driving on unpaved roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous terrain increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases vehicle resistance and fuel consumption. Low ambient temperatures: When the engine block is cold, gasoline injected during a cold start does not atomize easily, requiring more fuel for combustion, which increases consumption. Additionally, lower temperatures prompt the engine's computer to use higher RPMs to warm up the vehicle, further increasing fuel consumption.
I've been driving the Crown Kluger for a while now, and I'm quite satisfied with its fuel consumption. It's a bit higher in city traffic, around 8-9L/100km, but on the highway, it drops to 6-7L. The combined average is between 7.5-8L. As a daily commuter, the monthly fuel cost is about 500-600 yuan, which is quite reasonable, especially compared to my neighbors' SUVs of similar size. I recommend paying attention to driving habits—avoid sudden acceleration and braking, and regularly check tire pressure. These small things can easily save you some fuel money. On weekends, taking friends out isn't much of a burden either, with its spacious interior and ample luggage space. Overall, it feels quite economical and practical within the budget.
