2 Answers
The fuel consumption of the Ford Kuga ranges from 7.2 to 8.7L/100km. Below is an introduction to related details of the Kuga: Body Dimensions: The Ford Kuga measures 4524mm in length, 1838mm in width, and 1701mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2690mm. The Ford Kuga is an SUV under the Ford brand. Interior Design: The interior features a 10-inch central control LCD display, embedded with a new internet-connected car intelligent system that supports multi-touch and smartphone connectivity. It enables functions such as remote start, online music, fleet maps, fuel payment, and intelligent food recommendations. Powertrain: The Ford Kuga offers two engine options: the EcoBoost 180 (1.5T) and the EcoBoost 245 (2.0T), with maximum power outputs of 181 horsepower and 245 horsepower respectively. The transmission is paired with a 6-speed automatic manual transmission, and the 2.0T model comes standard with a four-wheel drive system.
I drove a Ford Kuga 1.5T two-wheel drive version for several years. For daily urban commuting, it averaged around 10L/100km, but during morning rush hour traffic jams, it could spike to 11-12L/100km. On highways, it was particularly fuel-efficient, with cruise control and air conditioning on, consuming just over 7L/100km. This fuel consumption is considered average among SUVs, especially considering its weight of 1.6 tons. The air conditioning has a noticeable impact on fuel consumption; using the AC in summer typically increases consumption by about 1L/100km. Fuel consumption also rises when the trunk is fully loaded with luggage, so it's advisable to regularly clear out unnecessary weight. I used a mobile app to track my refueling habits and noticed that timely maintenance and oil changes helped stabilize fuel consumption significantly.
