What is the fuel consumption of the Hyundai Elantra?
1 Answers
There are currently 4 models of the Hyundai Elantra available for sale. Among them, the 2020 Elantra 1.6L automatic GLS Yue Value Edition, automatic GL Yue Mu Edition, and automatic DLX Yue Xin Edition, all equipped with a 123-horsepower engine, have an NEDC fuel consumption of 6L per 100km. The 2020 Elantra 1.6L manual GLS Yue Value Edition, also equipped with a 123-horsepower engine, has an NEDC fuel consumption of 5.6L per 100km. The fuel tank capacity of the Hyundai Elantra is 55L. For models with an NEDC fuel consumption of 6L per 100km, the distance that can be covered with a full tank of fuel is 55/6*100=917km. For models with an NEDC fuel consumption of 5.6L per 100km, the distance that can be covered with a full tank of fuel is 55/5.6*100=982km. The fuel consumption of a car is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that can increase fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before encountering a red light, can increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger engine displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements usually mean higher power, requiring more gasoline to burn and perform work. Heavier cars also consume more fuel because greater weight requires more driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases car resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily during cold starts, requiring more gasoline to be injected for combustion, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, in low temperatures, the engine control unit may command higher idle speeds to warm up the engine, which also increases fuel consumption.
