What is the fuel consumption of the Ford Mustang 2.3t?
3 Answers
Ford Mustang 2.3t has a very high fuel consumption, with an average comprehensive fuel consumption of at least 13 liters per 100 kilometers. Here is some extended information: 1. In 1962, Ford developed the first concept car of the Mustang—the Mustang-I concept car. It was a mid-engine, two-seater sports car. The name "Mustang" was chosen to commemorate the legendary P-51 Mustang fighter aircraft from World War II. 2. Due to the low practicality of the two-seater design of the Mustang-I concept car, it was rejected by Ford executives. In October 1963, Ford introduced the Mustang-II concept car, changing the layout to a front-engine, four-seater configuration.
I've been driving the Ford Mustang 2.3T for a while now. As a performance car, the fuel consumption is indeed a bit high, but it really depends on how you drive it. In the city, if you press the accelerator lightly, you can keep it around 13L/100km. However, during peak traffic hours with frequent braking and stopping, the fuel consumption can soar to 15L. On the highway, it's much more economical, easily maintaining a steady 8L/100km. The official combined fuel consumption is said to be around 10L, but the actual experience varies from person to person—I prefer spirited driving, and with a heavier foot, the fuel consumption goes up. For daily driving, I recommend checking the tire pressure and avoiding modifications like larger rims, which can increase fuel consumption. Overall, it's more fuel-hungry than a regular family car, but the Mustang's exhilarating acceleration is worth the price, and spending a few hundred more on fuel each month is bearable.
As a Mustang owner, I mainly use it for commuting to work. The average fuel consumption in city driving is around 12L/100km, and it can jump above 14L during peak traffic hours. However, it drops to about 7L on long highway trips, which is quite comfortable. Overall, the actual fuel consumption is in the range of 10-11L, and the official data of 11L is basically reliable. Compared to my old sedan, it's a bit higher, but the Mustang accelerates quickly and is fun to drive. My monthly fuel budget is under 1000, which is manageable. Avoiding sudden braking and hard acceleration, and maintaining a steady speed can save a lot of fuel. For new drivers, it's good to have a tire pressure gauge handy—insufficient pressure immediately increases fuel consumption. Also, remember to maintain the engine regularly for better efficiency.
