What is the fuel consumption of the Dongfeng Nissan Qashqai 2.0 engine?
3 Answers
Dongfeng Nissan Qashqai 2.0 has a total of 4 models on sale. Among them, the Qashqai 2022 2.0L CVT XV TOP Flagship Edition, equipped with a 151 horsepower engine, has an NEDC fuel consumption of 6.4L per 100 km. The Qashqai 2022 2.0L CVT XV PremPro Luxury Navigation Edition, Prem Luxury Edition, and XV Smart Edition, all equipped with a 151 horsepower engine, have an NEDC fuel consumption of 6.2L per 100 km. All models of the Dongfeng Nissan Qashqai 2.0 have the same fuel tank capacity. The distance that can be covered with a full tank of fuel is as follows: Models equipped with a 151 horsepower engine have a fuel tank capacity of 57L, and the distance that can be covered with a full tank is 57/6.4*100=891 km. Models equipped with a 151 horsepower engine have a fuel tank capacity of 57L, and the distance that can be covered with a full tank is 57/6.2*100=919 km. 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 encountering a red light, can increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger displacement generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacement because larger displacement usually means greater power, requiring more gasoline for combustion. Cars with greater weight 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 temperature: When the engine block temperature is low during cold starts, the injected gasoline is less likely to vaporize, requiring more gasoline to be injected for combustion, thus increasing 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 have been driving a Dongfeng Nissan Qashqai 2.0 for over two years, mainly for urban commuting. The fuel consumption is usually around 8-9 liters per 100 kilometers, occasionally dropping to about 7 liters on the highway. In summer, with the air conditioning on, the fuel consumption can rise to over 9 liters, while the impact of heating in winter is minimal. I find this car quite fuel-efficient, mainly because the 2.0-liter engine provides adequate power without being too aggressive, and driving habits are the most crucial factor. I've noticed that frequent rapid acceleration and hard braking can push the fuel consumption up to 10 liters, while maintaining a steady speed of 60-80 km/h is the most economical. I regularly check the tire pressure, keeping it at the manufacturer-recommended 230 kPa, which helps save fuel, and I also avoid overloading. The Qashqai's fuel consumption is significantly affected by seasons and road conditions, being most wasteful in city traffic jams, but its overall performance is stable, making it suitable for family use. Regular maintenance of the air filter can also improve efficiency.
The fuel consumption of the X-Trail 2.0 varies from person to person. In my daily use, it averages just over 8 liters per 100 kilometers. The engine itself is designed to be efficient, with official data ranging between 6-7 liters per 100 kilometers, but actual driving often results in higher consumption. This is because city driving involves frequent stops and starts at traffic lights, which consumes more fuel, while highway cruising saves a lot. Fuel consumption is also heavily influenced by driving habits. I prefer gentle acceleration and anticipating deceleration, which helps keep it within a reasonable range. Older X-Trails may see slightly higher fuel consumption due to factors like aging spark plugs or delayed oil changes, which can hinder performance. I recommend that new drivers pay attention to dashboard prompts and develop fuel-saving habits, such as minimizing idling, avoiding sudden acceleration, and maintaining proper tire pressure, as underinflated tires can also increase fuel consumption. Overall, the X-Trail offers good fuel economy, making it suitable for city commuting.
