What is the fuel consumption of the Highlander 2.7?
2 Answers
According to official data, the minimum fuel consumption of the 2.7 Highlander is 9.9L/100km. Fuel consumption mainly depends on the driver's skills and habits. Aggressive driving typically results in 15-17L/100km, normal driving around 12-14L/100km, and economical driving between 10-12L/100km. On highways, it can drop to around 9L/100km. Additional relevant information: 1. The Highlander 2.7 engine features dual VVT-i and dual balance shaft design, with an output power of 140Kw/5800rpm and torque of 252Nm/4100rpm. 2. The Highlander 2.7 is only available in front-wheel drive (FWD) models, with no four-wheel drive (4WD) version. The automatic transmission for the Highlander 2.7 is a 6-speed.
I've been driving a Highlander 2.7 for about seven or eight years now, and generally, the combined fuel consumption is around 10.5 liters per 100 kilometers. In city traffic jams, it can go up to 12-14 liters, while on long highway trips, it can drop below 9 liters. Driving habits have a significant impact—things like sudden acceleration and hard braking can increase fuel consumption, while smooth driving can save quite a bit. As the car ages, the engine condition and tire wear can also cause fluctuations in fuel consumption. My car now averages around 11 liters or slightly more. I recommend regular maintenance, replacing the air filter and engine oil, and using 92-octane fuel. Avoid driving on rough roads too frequently to keep fuel consumption stable within a reasonable range. Overall, this car's fuel consumption isn't outrageous—it's suitable for family use but not exactly a fuel-efficient vehicle.
