In the "Xiao Xiong You Hao" (Little Bear Fuel Consumption) report for the Nissan Patrol, data from 1,194 owners of the 4.0L version shows a fuel consumption range of 13.91-18.20 liters per 100 kilometers, with an average of 16.06 liters/100km. Below are the specifications for the Patrol 4.0L version: 1. Body dimensions: Length 5165mm, width 1995mm, height 1955mm, wheelbase 3075mm. 2. Powertrain configuration: 4.0L V6 engine + 7-speed automatic transmission (AT) + front-engine four-wheel drive (full-time 4WD). 3.

I've been driving the Patrol 4.0L version long-term, and fuel consumption varies greatly depending on road conditions and personal driving habits. In congested urban areas, a full tank can cover less than 400 kilometers, averaging 16-18 liters per 100 km. On highway cruising, it's much more economical, around 11-12 liters. The V6 large-displacement engine, heavy body, and high aerodynamic drag make it quite thirsty during acceleration. Maintenance is crucial: I change the semi-synthetic oil every 5,000 km and replace the air filter when dirty, which can slightly reduce fuel consumption. Keep tire pressure around 2.8 bar to avoid increased rolling resistance. Don't obsess over fuel costs with this vehicle – enjoy its powerful performance and stability during off-roading instead. Rainy days or hilly terrain noticeably increase consumption, so developing anticipatory driving habits like coasting before red lights can save significant fuel. Overall, 14-16 liters is normal, but the reliability and spaciousness make it worth the cost.
