What is the fuel consumption of the new Ford Edge?
1 Answers
The new Ford Edge has a total of 6 models on sale, including the 2020 EcoBoost245 two-wheel-drive Enjoy version, the 2020 EcoBoost245 two-wheel-drive Shine version, and other 6 models equipped with a 248 horsepower engine. The NEDC fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is 7.3L. The fuel tank capacity of different models of the new Ford Edge varies. The distance that can be covered with a full tank of fuel is as follows: Models equipped with a 248 horsepower engine have a fuel tank capacity of 63L, and the distance that can be covered with a full tank of fuel is 63/7.3*100=863KM. The fuel consumption of a car is directly related to five major factors, namely driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. The specific factors that increase car fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Rough driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not releasing the throttle in advance when encountering a red light, will increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger displacement consume more fuel than those with smaller displacement because larger displacement generally means greater power, requiring more gasoline to burn and do work. Cars with greater self-weight will have higher fuel consumption because greater self-weight requires larger driving torque. Road conditions: Dirt roads, muddy roads, soft roads, mountain roads, etc. Driving on these roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases car resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperature: When the engine block temperature is low, the gasoline injected during cold starts is not easy to atomize, requiring more gasoline to be injected for combustion, thus increasing fuel consumption. At the same time, when the temperature is low, the engine computer will control the car to use higher RPM to warm up, which will also increase fuel consumption.
