What is the fuel consumption of the Land Rover Range Rover?
3 Answers
There are currently 8 available models of the Land Rover Range Rover. Among them, the 2022 5.0 SC V8 565PS SVA Dynamic Edition and the Autobiography Ultimate Long Wheelbase Edition are equipped with a 564-horsepower engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 12.9L per 100km. The 2022 3.0 L6 400PS Autobiography Long Wheelbase Classic Edition and the SVAutobiography Long Wheelbase Edition are equipped with a 400-horsepower engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 9.3L per 100km. The 2022 3.0 L6 360PS SE Edition and the Autobiography Edition are equipped with a 360-horsepower engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 9.2L per 100km. The fuel tank capacity of the Land Rover Range Rover is 104L. The distance each model can travel on a full tank of fuel is as follows: Models with a 564-horsepower engine can travel 104/12.9*100=806km on a full tank. Models with a 400-horsepower engine can travel 104/9.3*100=1118km on a full tank. Models with a 360-horsepower engine can travel 104/9.2*100=1130km on a full tank. Vehicle fuel consumption is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the vehicle itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that can increase fuel consumption include: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as rapid acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before a red light, can increase fuel consumption. The vehicle itself: Vehicles with larger engine displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements typically produce more power, requiring more gasoline to burn and perform work. Heavier vehicles 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 vehicle resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily during a cold start, requiring more gasoline to be injected for combustion, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, in low temperatures, the engine's computer may control the engine to run at higher RPMs to warm up, further increasing fuel consumption.
I've been driving a Land Rover Range Rover, and as an urban commuter, the fuel consumption has left a deep impression on me. In the city with frequent stops and starts, numerous red lights, and constant acceleration, a full tank of gas burns out quickly, with an average fuel consumption of about 17 to 20 liters per 100 kilometers. During peak hours, it can even rise to around 22 liters. On the highway, it's better, dropping to around 14 liters, and even more economical with cruise control. The car is heavy and powerful, and turning on the air conditioning significantly increases fuel consumption, especially during summer traffic jams when the fuel costs add up quickly. I recommend regular maintenance to keep the engine efficient, checking tire pressure to reduce resistance, and adopting a gentle driving style—smooth starts and gradual braking, avoiding flooring the accelerator. This can save a lot on fuel expenses in the long run and also make the car more durable.
When it comes to fuel consumption for large SUVs like the Range Rover, it really depends on the specific circumstances. Based on my experience, the gasoline-powered Range Rover averages around 18 liters per 100 kilometers in the city, dropping to 14 liters on the highway. However, actual consumption can vary significantly depending on driving style, road conditions, and vehicle age. The engine type makes a notable difference—diesel versions are more fuel-efficient, typically ranging between 10 to 12 liters, while plug-in hybrid models perform even better, consuming minimal fuel in pure electric mode. Don’t overlook the impact of vehicle weight; carrying a full load or adding a roof box will increase fuel usage. Additionally, regular maintenance of air filters and spark plugs helps keep the engine in good condition. Using air conditioning in summer consumes slightly more fuel than in winter, so adjusting driving habits seasonally can save money. Anticipating road conditions to avoid sudden braking and utilizing ECO mode can also enhance fuel efficiency.
