What is the fuel consumption of the FJ Cruiser?
1 Answers
The FJ Cruiser has 3 models. Among them, the 2013 FJ Cruiser 4.0L and 2011 FJ Cruiser 4.0L, equipped with a 272 horsepower engine, have an NEDC fuel consumption of 11.9L per 100 km. The 2010 FJ Cruiser 4.0L, equipped with a 272 horsepower engine, has an NEDC fuel consumption of 11.6L per 100 km. The fuel tank capacity of all FJ Cruiser models is 72L. The distance that can be covered with a full tank of fuel is as follows: For models equipped with a 272 horsepower engine, the distance that can be covered with a full tank of fuel is 72/11.9*100=605 km. For models equipped with a 272 horsepower engine, the distance that can be covered with a full tank of fuel is 72/11.6*100=621 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 a car's fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before a red light, can increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger engine displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements usually mean higher power, requiring more gasoline to burn and perform work. Heavier cars also have higher fuel consumption 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 temperatures: When the engine block temperature is low, the gasoline injected during a cold start does not atomize easily, requiring more gasoline to be injected for combustion, which increases 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.
