What is the fuel consumption of the Jetta VS5 manual transmission?
2 Answers
The comprehensive fuel consumption of the Jetta VS5 manual transmission is 6.2L/100km. Currently, there are 5 models of the Jetta VS5 manual transmission available for sale, including the Manual Yuexiang Pro and Manual Jinqu Pro, with a comprehensive fuel consumption of 6.2L/100km. The above figures are based on the NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption, which is the fuel consumption data measured under the NEDC test procedure. The actual fuel consumption is higher than this value, ranging from 7.8-8.2L/100km. Here are 5 tips to help reduce fuel consumption while driving: When starting the vehicle, use a low gear, gently press the accelerator, and accelerate slowly. Avoid suddenly pressing the accelerator hard, as this can multiply fuel consumption. Light acceleration, light braking, and early braking: While driving, gently press the accelerator to avoid sudden increases in engine RPM and prevent the car from shaking during operation, thus making the car more fuel-efficient. By anticipating road conditions and applying slow and even acceleration or braking, fuel economy can be improved 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 approximately 0.2 in the metric system, relative to the standard pressure of 2.4), fuel consumption increases by 1%. Regular maintenance or vehicle inspection: Timely oil changes can reduce carbon buildup (carbon deposits can cause ignition issues, sluggish acceleration, increased fuel consumption, and in severe cases, even cylinder misfires). Regularly check and replace the air filter if dirty, and clean or replace the fuel injectors, spark plugs, and throttle body as per the recommended mileage. Close the windows while driving. Driving with windows open increases wind resistance, which in turn increases the resistance the car faces, requiring more power and thus increasing fuel consumption.
I've been driving manual transmission models, including the Jetta VS5. From my actual driving experience, its fuel consumption is quite friendly. In urban conditions, my car shows an average of around 7.5 liters per 100 kilometers, which can drop below 6 liters when cruising steadily on highways, demonstrating good overall economy. Manual shifting allows me to control the RPM and avoid lingering in inefficient ranges. Fuel consumption may increase to around 8 liters when driving on hilly terrain or with the air conditioning on, but as long as I drive smoothly with less sudden acceleration and braking, fuel efficiency remains stable. My city commute fuel consumption is generally consistent, and it's even lower on occasional long trips, indicating the car's well-thought-out design that balances sufficient power with fuel efficiency. For daily maintenance, I recommend paying attention to tire pressure and engine oil condition to maintain low resistance, which will enhance long-term fuel-saving effects.
