What is the fuel consumption of the new Mercedes-Benz GLA?
2 Answers
The official fuel consumption for the new Mercedes-Benz GLA 1.3T is 6.1 liters per 100 kilometers, and for the 1.6T model, it is 6.5 liters per 100 kilometers. Introduction to fuel consumption per 100 kilometers: This refers to the amount of fuel (in liters) consumed by the vehicle when traveling 100 kilometers, commonly referred to as fuel consumption per 100 kilometers. It is used to measure a vehicle's fuel efficiency and can vary under different conditions. Notes on vehicle fuel consumption: Slipping clutch can cause a loss of engine speed. If you notice that the engine RPM increases rapidly during hard acceleration but the vehicle speed increases slowly, it may indicate a slipping clutch. In such cases, the clutch disc, clutch pressure plate, and flywheel may need replacement. Overloading the vehicle: Some drivers treat the trunk as a storage space, filling it with unnecessary items, which increases the vehicle's weight. It's important to note that vehicle weight is directly proportional to fuel consumption. It is said that for every 10% reduction in vehicle weight, fuel consumption decreases by a corresponding percentage.
I remember when driving the new Mercedes-Benz GLA for urban commuting, the fuel consumption was around 9-10L/100km, slightly higher than my previous car. But with the help of the start-stop system, the engine automatically shuts off at red lights to save fuel. When the weather is hot, using the air conditioning has a greater impact, and it's not uncommon to see it rise to 11L. The fuel consumption fluctuates significantly in city traffic jams, but fortunately, the steering wheel is light and parking is convenient, making it suitable for daily commuting. If you take more highways, it's easy to drop to 7-8L. It's recommended to check the tire pressure regularly, as too low pressure can increase fuel consumption. Overall, it's still economical, but if you want to save fuel, avoid aggressive acceleration.
