What is the fuel consumption of the Jeep Compass?
2 Answers
The comprehensive fuel consumption of the Compass is 6.0-7.6L/100km. There are currently 7 models of the 2021 Compass on sale. The comprehensive fuel consumption of the automatic comfort version is 6.0L/100km; the automatic luxury version is 6.3L/100km; the automatic four-wheel-drive high-performance flagship version is 7.6L/100km; the automatic four-wheel-drive elite version and the automatic four-wheel-drive 80th anniversary edition are 7.3L/100km; the automatic elite version and the automatic leading version are 6.2L/100km. The above are the NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption figures, which are the fuel consumption data measured under the NEDC test procedure. The actual fuel consumption is higher than this value, ranging from 5.7-9.3L/100km. When driving, the following 5 tips can help reduce fuel consumption: When starting the vehicle, use a low gear, gently press the accelerator, and gradually increase speed. Avoid suddenly pressing the accelerator hard, as this can multiply fuel consumption. Light acceleration and braking, early braking: When driving, gently press the accelerator to avoid sudden increases in engine speed and prevent the car from shaking during driving, making the car more fuel-efficient. By anticipating road conditions and accelerating or braking slowly and evenly, fuel economy can be increased by up to 20%. Maintain proper tire pressure: Keep tire pressure at the level recommended by the manufacturer. For every 2 PSI below the recommended value (equivalent to about 0.2 in metric units relative to the standard pressure of 2.4), fuel consumption increases by 1%. Regular vehicle maintenance or inspection: Regular oil changes can reduce carbon buildup (carbon buildup can cause ignition issues, sluggish acceleration, increased fuel consumption, and even cylinder misfires in severe cases); regularly check and replace the air filter if dirty, and clean or replace the fuel injectors, spark plugs, and throttle body as per mileage. Close windows while driving. Driving with windows open increases wind resistance. The greater the wind resistance, the more resistance the car faces, requiring more power and thus increasing fuel consumption.
As a long-time owner of a Jeep Compass, I find that the daily fuel consumption is around 9 to 10 liters per 100 kilometers in urban driving, while it can drop to 7 to 8 liters on the highway. This car is quite suitable for family use, but fuel consumption really depends on driving habits—I prefer smooth acceleration and avoid sudden braking; I maintain tire pressure at the level recommended in the manual; regular replacement of the air filter and engine oil also helps. Winter or summer air conditioning use increases fuel consumption, so I try to drive when temperatures are moderate. Overall, the fuel consumption of this car is reasonable—neither too high nor too economical—making it suitable for average families. I recommend keeping an eye on the fuel gauge or recording mileage with each refuel to calculate actual fuel consumption and adjust driving habits accordingly, which can save quite a bit on expenses.
