What is the fuel consumption of the old Volkswagen Santana 1.8?
1 Answers
The Santana currently has 7 models on sale. Among them, the Santana 2021 1.5L Manual Comfort Edition, Automatic Fashion Edition, Manual Fashion Edition, Automatic Comfort Edition, and the Santana 2019 Hatchback 1.5L Manual Fashion Edition National VI, totaling 5 models, are equipped with the EA211-DLF engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 5.6L per 100km. The Santana 2019 Hatchback 1.5L Automatic Fashion Edition National VI and Automatic Comfort Edition, two models, are equipped with the EA211-DLF engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 5.5L per 100km. The fuel tanks of all 7 Santana models are the same. The distance that can be covered with a full tank of fuel is as follows: Models equipped with the 1.5L 112 horsepower engine have a fuel tank capacity of 52.8L. The distance that can be covered with a full tank is 52.8/5.6*100=942km; 52.8/5.5*100=960km. The fuel consumption of a car is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that can increase fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before a red light, will increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger engine displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements usually mean higher power, requiring more gasoline to burn and perform work. Heavier cars also consume more fuel because greater weight requires more driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases car resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily, requiring more gasoline to be injected for combustion, thus increasing fuel consumption. Additionally, at low temperatures, the engine's computer will control the engine to run at higher RPMs to warm up, which also increases fuel consumption.
