What is the fuel consumption of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class?
1 Answers
The combined fuel consumption of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class is 7.8-8.5L/100km. There are currently 5 models of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class available for sale: the S400L Luxury, S400L Business, and S450L, with a combined fuel consumption of 7.8-8.5L/100km. The S450L-4MATIC has a combined fuel consumption of 8.2L/100km, while the S500L-4MATIC has a combined fuel consumption of 8.5L/100km. The above figures are NEDC combined fuel consumption, which is the data measured under the NEDC test procedure for comprehensive driving conditions. The actual fuel consumption is higher than this value, ranging from 9.6-9.8L/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 gradually increase speed. Avoid suddenly pressing the accelerator hard, as this can significantly increase fuel consumption. Light acceleration, light braking, and early braking: While driving, press the accelerator lightly to avoid sudden increases in engine RPM and prevent the car from shaking during operation, thereby 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 (approximately 0.2 in metric units relative to the standard pressure of 2.4), fuel consumption increases by 1%. Regular maintenance or vehicle checks: 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.
