What is the fuel consumption of the KX5?
2 Answers
KX5 fuel consumption ranges between 8.73-8.89L/100km, which is within an acceptable range. Below is detailed information about it: Introduction 1: Fuel consumption can be affected by various factors, such as road conditions, driving habits, and oil quality. Introduction 2: Since vehicles often experience various working conditions like acceleration, deceleration, braking, and engine idling during actual driving, constant-speed fuel consumption tends to be lower and significantly different from actual fuel consumption. Introduction 3: Vehicle fuel consumption is calculated based on the fuel consumed per 100 kilometers (usually referring to 100 km). Average fuel consumption = total fuel filled - last fuel filled / mileage.
I've been driving the Kia KX5 for over a year now, and I think the fuel consumption is quite good. When driving in the city, especially during traffic jams, the fuel consumption tends to be higher, around 9 to 10 liters per 100 kilometers. On the highway, it's more economical, dropping to about 7 liters. It really depends on how you drive—for example, if you step hard on the accelerator, the fuel consumption spikes immediately. I prefer driving more gently, which keeps it stable at around 8 liters. Also, the condition of the car is important. I regularly change the oil and check tire pressure, which helps maintain stable fuel consumption. On average, I spend about 600 to 700 yuan per month on fuel, which isn't too expensive. If you're a beginner, I recommend using ECO mode more often, as it automatically adjusts gear shifts to reduce consumption. Overall, as an SUV, the KX5's fuel consumption isn't the lowest, but it's not too high either—it's suitable for city commuting or weekend trips.
