What is the fuel consumption of the Mercedes-Benz GLS450?
1 Answers
The combined fuel consumption of the Mercedes-Benz GLS450 is 9.4-9.5L/100km. Currently, there are 2 models of the Mercedes-Benz GLS450 on sale. The combined fuel consumption of the Fashion model is 9.4L/100km, while the Luxury model has a combined fuel consumption of 9.5L/100km. The above figures are based on the NEDC combined cycle, which measures fuel consumption under standardized test conditions. Real-world fuel consumption is higher, ranging from 10.3-12.5L/100km. Factors affecting a car's fuel consumption include: Vehicle weight: Larger and heavier vehicles consume more fuel. Generally, a compact family car with a 1.6L engine weighing about 1.2 tons has a fuel consumption of approximately 7.5L (calculated under full load), while an SUV weighing about 1.5 tons consumes around 8.5L. Different weights lead to varying fuel consumption. Drag coefficient: Higher drag increases fuel consumption during driving. Vehicles with better aerodynamics have lower drag coefficients, resulting in lower fuel consumption. Optimal engine speed: There is a most fuel-efficient torque output point for the engine during driving. Maintaining the vehicle's speed within this torque output point significantly reduces fuel consumption. Typically, small-displacement vehicles achieve this at around 70 km/h, while larger-displacement vehicles reach it at about 100 km/h. Staying within this optimal speed range ensures minimal fuel consumption. Driving style: Aggressive driving behaviors such as rapid acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before stopping at traffic lights can increase fuel consumption.
