What is the fuel consumption of the Equinox 2.0 and 1.5?
2 Answers
1.5T Equinox has an average fuel consumption of 8.5L/100km, while the 2.0T version averages 10L/100km. Fuel consumption calculation method: After resetting the mileage data through the vehicle dashboard, the onboard computer automatically calculates the vehicle's fuel consumption based on the recorded mileage and fuel consumption data. Factors affecting fuel consumption: Insufficient tire pressure or severe wear will increase fuel consumption; short-term engine carbon buildup can also lead to higher vehicle fuel consumption; a damaged oxygen sensor can cause an imbalance in the engine's air-fuel ratio, resulting in abnormally high fuel consumption.
I've been driving the Chevrolet Equinox 1.5T for a while now, with city fuel consumption around 10 liters per 100 kilometers, dropping to 7.5 liters on the highway. In comparison, the 2.0T version offers more power but slightly higher fuel consumption, approximately 11-12 liters in the city and 8.5 liters on the highway. For daily commuting, I find the 1.5T more economical and practical, especially in congested areas where fuel savings are noticeable. Maintenance is also crucial, such as changing the engine oil every 5,000 kilometers and keeping tire pressure at the manufacturer's recommended values to stabilize fuel consumption. Driving habits play a key role too; avoiding sudden acceleration or frequent braking and maintaining smooth driving can save a significant amount on fuel costs annually. Regularly checking the air filter is also important, as a dirty one can increase fuel consumption.
