Ford Kuga 1.6t has a fuel consumption of 12.4L per 100 kilometers. More information about the Ford Kuga is as follows: Overview: The Ford Kuga is an SUV under the Ford brand. The Ford Kuga Kuga officially debuted at the 2012 Beijing Auto Show on April 22, 2012. The Ford Kuga features a luxurious and stylish exterior, a highly modern interior, and many high-tech configurations leading in its class. Others: The fuel tank capacity is 60 liters. The engine type is turbocharged. The standard seating capacity is 5. The top speed is 216km/h. The acceleration time is 8.53 seconds (0-100km/h). The drive type is front-wheel drive.
I've handled substantial real-world test data for the Ford Kuga 1.6T. This model's fuel consumption is approximately 7.2L/100km under China's MIIT standards, with actual figures varying by road conditions: urban stop-and-go traffic may reach 9-10L, while highway cruising typically maintains 6.5-7L. The turbocharged engine delivers solid power output at the cost of slightly higher fuel consumption. Key factors affecting mileage include driving habits (aggressive acceleration/braking adds 1-2L), vehicle weight with cargo, while underinflated tires or clogged filters can cause abnormal consumption spikes. Regular maintenance like tire pressure checks and spark plug replacements can optimize consumption to around 8L – crucial for long-term fuel economy and cost savings, especially during fuel price fluctuations.
I drive an older Ford Kuga 1.6T myself. After two to three years of use, the average fuel consumption fluctuates around 8.5 liters per 100 kilometers. During peak commuting hours in the city with heavy traffic, it can spike to 10 liters, but on weekend highway trips when I relax, it drops to just over 7 liters, which feels quite stable. Daily fuel expenses are significant—running 1,000 kilometers a month costs over 800 yuan in fuel. So, I gradually learned some fuel-saving tricks, like avoiding sudden acceleration and braking, maintaining a steady speed, and keeping the tires properly inflated. As a result, fuel consumption dropped to around 8 liters, saving me a good amount of money. If you're considering buying this car, you’ll need to factor in fuel costs and how changes in driving habits might affect your budget.
