What is the fuel consumption of the Ford Focus?

The actual fuel consumption of the Focus is 5.5-5.9L/100km. The currently available Focus models include 7 variants such as the 2021 Sedan Manual Fengyue, Sedan Automatic Fengchao, Hatchback Automatic Fengchao, and Sedan Automatic Fengyue. The official NEDC combined fuel consumption is 5.5-5.9L/100km. Among vehicles in the same class, the Xingrui has an NEDC combined fuel consumption of 6.7L/100km, the Corolla 4.0-5.6L/100km, the Civic 5.0-6.4L/100km, the Sagitar 5.3-5.6L/100km, and the Verano 5.2-6.3L/100km. Vehicle fuel consumption is directly influenced by five major factors: driving habits, the vehicle itself, road conditions, natural wind, and ambient temperature. Details are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving behaviors such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before traffic lights increase fuel consumption. The vehicle itself: Cars with larger engine displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements typically produce more power, requiring more gasoline for combustion. Heavier vehicles also have higher fuel consumption due to the greater driving torque needed. 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 vehicle resistance and fuel consumption. Low ambient temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily during cold starts, requiring more gasoline for combustion, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, the engine control unit may command higher idle speeds to warm up the engine in cold temperatures, further increasing fuel consumption.

I drive a 2019 1.5T Focus, with city commuting fuel consumption around 8.5L/100km. In summer with AC on and traffic jams, it can reach 10L. On highways, it's very fuel-efficient, just over 6L in cruise mode. My colleague's 1.0T three-cylinder version is actually more fuel-consuming, especially with AC on, as it lacks power and requires deeper throttle input. Owners of the older 1.6L version report even higher fuel consumption, generally above 9L. I once tested a full tank on the highway, covering 600km without refueling. With rising fuel prices, it's indeed painful. I recommend installing a fuel consumption monitoring app and developing the habit of anticipating road conditions to brake less, which can save a lot on fuel costs.

Fuel consumption depends on the specific version and driving conditions. The U.S. version of the 2.0L Focus has a combined fuel consumption of about 7.8L, while the domestic 1.5T version typically fluctuates between 7-9L. Some media tests have shown that fuel consumption in congested urban areas may exceed 11L, while maintaining 70km/h on expressways is the most economical, with instantaneous fuel consumption dropping to just over 5L. The Ford Ecoboost engine does consume more fuel at low speeds, but becomes more fuel-efficient when the turbo kicks in after exceeding 2000 rpm. It is recommended to regularly clean carbon deposits; after my last throttle cleaning, fuel consumption dropped by 0.7L. Avoid stomping on the accelerator during cold starts—wait until the water temperature reaches 90 degrees before accelerating for better fuel efficiency.

Four-Year Summary of Driving a Focus: The 1.5T automatic averages 8.3L/100km, manual is ~0.5L lower. Tires matter! OEM 215/50 R17s were noisy and thirsty - switching to eco-tires dropped the display by 0.6L. AC accounts for ~15% fuel use - recommend windows for short trips. Clearing trunk junk saves weight and fuel - tests show 0.3L/100km saved per 100kg reduction. 5W-20 oil saves more than 5W-30 - personally verified.

Is it necessary to clean the car's throttle body?

The car's throttle body must be cleaned. The cleaning method for the throttle body is as follows: 1. First, remove the intake hose to expose the throttle body. 2. Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery and turn off the ignition switch. 3. Straighten the throttle plate and spray a small amount of "carburetor cleaner" into the throttle body. 4. Then carefully wipe with a polyester cloth or high-quality "non-woven fabric". For hard-to-reach areas inside the throttle body, use tweezers to hold the cloth for careful cleaning. 5. After cleaning, reassemble the throttle body following the disassembly steps in reverse order. Below is an introduction about the throttle body: 1. The throttle body is a controllable valve that regulates air intake into the engine. 2. It connects the air filter at the top and the engine block at the bottom, often referred to as the "throat" of a car engine. The vehicle's acceleration responsiveness is closely related to the cleanliness of the throttle body. 3. There are two types of throttle bodies: traditional cable-operated and electronic. In traditional engines, the throttle mechanism operates via a cable (flexible steel wire) or linkage rod, connecting the accelerator pedal to the throttle linkage plate. Electronic throttle bodies primarily use throttle position sensors to control the opening angle based on engine power requirements, thereby regulating the air intake volume.

How to Turn Off the Civic's Daytime Running Lights?

The Civic's daytime running lights cannot be turned off. Daytime running lights are lamps installed at the front of the vehicle to make it more easily recognizable during daytime driving. They are not meant for illumination but serve as signal lights to alert others of an approaching vehicle. Additional information about daytime running lights: 1. Daytime running lights differ from regular low-beam headlights, as they are specifically designed for daytime driving illumination, consuming only 15% of the energy used by regular low-beam headlights. With LED technology, the energy-saving effect is further enhanced, reducing consumption to just 10% of regular low-beam headlights. 2. When the car engine starts, the daytime running lights automatically turn on and gradually increase in brightness to attract the attention of other motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians. At night, when the driver manually turns on the low-beam headlights, the daytime running lights automatically turn off. 3. The use of daytime running lights has played a positive and effective role in improving road safety and reducing traffic accidents.

What are the body length, width, and height of the Honda Accord?

The length, width, and height dimensions of the Accord are 4906mm/1862mm/1449mm, which are official data. The length of the Accord refers to the distance between two vertical planes perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane and respectively touching the outermost protruding parts at the front and rear of the vehicle; the width refers to the distance between two planes parallel to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane and respectively touching the outermost rigid fixed protruding parts on both sides of the vehicle; the height refers to the distance between the highest point of the vehicle and the vehicle support plane. The Accord's turbocharged engine has a maximum power of 143kW and a maximum torque of 260 Nm. The engine's maximum power speed is 5500 rpm, and the maximum torque speed ranges from 1600 to 5000 rpm. It is equipped with direct fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head. This engine is paired with a continuously variable transmission. The state has relevant regulations regarding vehicle dimensions. According to the national standard "GB1589-89," the total width of a vehicle does not include the rearview mirrors. The limitation on vehicle width is to provide sufficient lateral clearance for overtaking between adjacent lanes. This means that in the national standard, the significance of vehicle width data lies in ensuring enough space during overtaking, preventing accidents due to excessive width or situations where road markings are narrower than the vehicle's width. Additionally, the state stipulates that the total width of a vehicle must not exceed 2.5m to meet the usage requirements of public roads.
