What is the fuel consumption of the Equinox?
2 Answers
The fuel consumption of the Equinox is 6.8/8.2 (liters per 100 kilometers). The following is a related introduction about the Equinox: 1. Exterior: In terms of exterior design, the Chevrolet Equinox adopts the latest family-style front face design. The large chrome-plated front grille is connected on both sides to the LED-equipped headlight clusters, with a richly contoured front bumper that exudes a sense of strength. The overall front appearance is very stylish. 2. Interior parameters: It features Chevrolet's classic winged dual-cockpit design, with the dashboard largely wrapped in black genuine leather.
I've driven the Equinox 2.0T AWD for three years, averaging 11-13L/100km in city commuting, while highway cruising can drop to around 7.5L. With a curb weight of nearly 1.8 tons, fuel consumption does spike during city driving with frequent traffic lights, especially in summer when running AC in traffic jams. The 1.5T FWD version would be more economical - my friend's model fluctuates around 9L in urban areas. I recommend installing a tire pressure monitor, as underinflated tires can increase fuel consumption by about 10%. Also avoid cheap gas from small refineries to prevent carbon buildup that worsens fuel efficiency. Overall it delivers standard performance among American SUVs, though not as fuel-efficient as Japanese competitors.
