What is the fuel consumption of the Excelle 1.3t?
2 Answers
The actual fuel consumption of the Excelle 1.3t is around 8 liters per 100 kilometers. During actual driving, due to external factors such as driving habits and road conditions, the actual fuel consumption often differs from the theoretical value indicated. The factors affecting fuel consumption are as follows: 1. Rough roads consume more fuel: If the road is congested or uneven, and the vehicle is driven in low gear for a long time, it will inevitably increase fuel consumption; 2. Using the trunk as a storage increases fuel consumption: Treating the trunk as a warehouse and stuffing it with all kinds of items, whether useful or not, increases the vehicle's weight. It's important to note that vehicle weight is directly proportional to fuel consumption. For every 10% reduction in vehicle weight, fuel consumption will correspondingly decrease by several percentage points.
I've been driving the Excelle 1.3T for nearly three years now, with an average fuel consumption of about 7.8L/100km for daily urban commuting. The fuel consumption increases slightly when using air conditioning in summer, and can reach up to 9L during severe traffic jams during peak hours. However, it's particularly fuel-efficient on highways - during the Dragon Boat Festival long-distance trip with cruise control engaged, the displayed fuel consumption was only 5.7L. The engine start-stop function does save some fuel when waiting at red lights, so I recommend keeping it enabled.
