What is the fuel consumption of the Ford Transit 2.8t?
2 Answers
The fuel consumption of the Ford Transit 2.8t is 7.6-9.7L per 100 kilometers. The following are some methods to reduce car fuel consumption: Enhance car maintenance: Car maintenance affects engine performance and driving resistance. According to statistics, poor maintenance can increase fuel consumption by 10% to 20%. Car owners should regularly go to car repair shops for routine maintenance, such as checking tire pressure, wheel alignment, adjusting the gap between brake friction pads and drums, lubricating various points on the car chassis, changing engine oil on schedule, and checking filters. Avoid sudden braking and acceleration: A smooth and steady driving style is the most fuel-efficient. During the starting phase, avoid stepping hard on the accelerator and accelerate smoothly. After reaching a certain speed, try to maintain a constant speed as much as possible. When driving in congested areas, also pay attention to the road conditions ahead to avoid sudden braking. This not only saves fuel but also extends the vehicle's service life.
I drive a Transit 2.8T for long-distance freight. With a full 68-liter tank, it can last about 650 km on the highway. Normally carrying two tons of cargo with the AC on, the display shows 13-14 liters per 100 km, which drops to 11 when empty. The worst fuel consumption is in city deliveries—lots of red lights and traffic jams. Every time you brake and start again, the fuel gauge drops noticeably, sometimes exceeding 16 liters. To save fuel, remember to maintain an economical speed of 80 km/h, avoid sudden acceleration, and keep tire pressure at the standard 3.0. Regularly changing the air filter is crucial. Last month, after replacing the filter, my fuel consumption immediately dropped by 0.8 liters.
