What is the fuel consumption of the old Teana 2.3?
2 Answers
The average fuel consumption of the old Teana 2.3 is 9.9 liters per 100 kilometers. Here is some related information about fuel consumption: 1. Habits and road conditions: Fuel consumption is greatly related to driving habits and road conditions. Avoid heavy acceleration, and gradual acceleration when starting is the most fuel-efficient. To save fuel, avoid pressing the accelerator heavily when starting, as heavy acceleration consumes 2 to 3 times more fuel than normal acceleration. 2. Braking: Maintaining a safe distance and avoiding frequent braking saves more fuel. If you don't keep a safe distance, you will often need to brake on the road. When braking, the gear of an automatic transmission car will drop, and the car will have to shift up from a lower gear again. Starting from a standstill or in a low gear requires the engine to consume more fuel.
I've been driving the old Teana 2.3 for several years, and fuel consumption actually varies from person to person. On average, it's around 11-12 liters per 100 kilometers, can reach 13 liters in city traffic jams, and drops to 9-10 liters when cruising on highways. This car has a 2.3L V6 engine with an older design—decent power but not particularly fuel-efficient. Driving smoothly, like with gentle acceleration and avoiding sudden braking, can keep fuel consumption around 10 liters. Maintenance is also crucial. I regularly change the engine oil and clean the throttle body to maintain engine efficiency and prevent fuel consumption from rising. Additionally, the car's condition has a big impact—factors like tire pressure and worn spark plugs can increase fuel consumption. Overall, it's not the most fuel-efficient car, but with careful driving and good maintenance, you can still save some money. For daily city driving, the fuel cost is roughly 0.8 yuan per kilometer.
