The combined fuel consumption of the Jaguar XFL is 6.9-7.9L/100km. Currently, there are five models of the Jaguar XFL on sale: the two-wheel-drive Elite Luxury Edition, two-wheel-drive Elite Sport Edition, and two-wheel-drive Premium Luxury Edition, all with a combined fuel consumption of 6.9L/100km. The four-wheel-drive Flagship Sport Edition has a combined fuel consumption of 7.9L/100km, and the four-wheel-drive Black Sport Edition has a combined fuel consumption of 7.2L/100km. The above figures are the NEDC combined fuel consumption, which is the fuel consumption data measured under the NEDC test procedure. The actual fuel consumption is higher than these values, ranging from 7.0-9.5L/100km. Specific factors affecting a car's fuel consumption are as follows: Vehicle weight: Larger and heavier cars tend to consume more fuel. Generally, a small family car with a 1.6L engine and a weight of around 1.2 tons has a fuel consumption of about 7.5 liters (calculated under full load conditions), while an SUV weighing around 1.5 tons has a fuel consumption of about 8.5 liters. Different weights result in varying fuel consumption. Drag coefficient: Higher drag coefficients increase fuel consumption during driving. Cars with better aerodynamics have lower drag coefficients, leading to reduced fuel consumption. Economical RPM: The engine has an optimal torque output point during driving. Maintaining the car's speed within this torque output range significantly reduces fuel consumption. Typically, small-displacement cars achieve this at around 70 km/h, while larger-displacement cars reach it at about 100 km/h. Staying within this economical RPM range minimizes fuel consumption. Driving style: Aggressive driving behaviors, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before stopping at traffic lights, can increase fuel consumption.

I recently purchased a Jaguar XFL 2.0T, mainly using it for urban commuting during peak hours when traffic congestion is severe, and the fuel consumption can soar to 11-12L/100km. On weekends, when driving back to my hometown on the highway at a steady speed of 80-100km/h, the fuel consumption drops to around 7L/100km, which feels quite economical. On average, the combined fuel consumption is about 9L/100km. The car has strong power and quick acceleration, but fuel consumption is heavily influenced by driving habits. Rapid acceleration or using the air conditioning can cause the fuel gauge to rise quickly. It's recommended to use the economy mode more often, avoid sluggish starts, maintain standard tire pressure, and perform regular engine maintenance to optimize performance. After driving for over six months, I feel that for a luxury car, the fuel consumption isn't too high, and daily commuting isn't a burden. Overall, I'm quite satisfied.

The Jaguar XFL primarily uses a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, which is technologically advanced, but the vehicle's weight affects fuel consumption. The official combined rating is 8.5L/100km. In real-world driving, due to differences in road conditions and habits, city driving often exceeds 10L, while highway driving is around 7L, with an average of 9L/100km being common. Reasons include turbo lag consuming more fuel in traffic jams, and the heavy body weight with significant inertia, making it more efficient at high speeds. In terms of maintenance, oil cleanliness and air filter condition are crucial; when old, they increase friction resistance and fuel consumption. Regularly checking these components, switching to thinner oil and high-quality filters can slightly reduce fuel consumption. For better fuel efficiency, drive smoothly and avoid frequent hard braking and acceleration.

Considering the fuel consumption of the Jaguar XFL, it's quite balanced compared to its luxury peers. Its combined fuel consumption is around 9L/100km, similar to the BMW 5 Series 2.0T at 8.5L and the Audi A6L at 8-9L, slightly higher than the Mercedes-Benz E-Class's 8L but with stronger power output. The XFL is a bit more fuel-consuming in city driving, but it performs more efficiently on highways or suburban routes. Choosing it among its peers won't disappoint, as American models like the Cadillac CT6 consume over 10L, while Japanese hybrids like the Lexus ES only use 6L but come at a higher price. The XFL's fuel consumption sits in the middle range of the luxury segment, and its driving experience compensates for the slight gap, making it a worthy choice for its value.
