Peugeot 408 fuel consumption: 6.4 liters/100 km. Here is an introduction to the fuel consumption of the Peugeot 408: 1. Fuel consumption: Fuel consumption test: the actual average fuel consumption of the 1.6T model is 7.9L/100km, and the actual average fuel consumption of the 1.2T model is 6.8L/100km. These two cars were not tested at the same time or on the same route, but the driving conditions were basically the same, both with the air conditioning turned on. The actual fuel consumption was about 0.5L/100km higher than the displayed fuel consumption. 2. Fuel efficiency: Peugeot officially stated that the transmission and engine of the 408 have been tuned. Although there is not much change in driving performance, it has had some effect on fuel consumption. The air conditioning cooling effect of the 408 is not particularly strong, which may not be a good thing, but it is believed that this aspect has objectively contributed to fuel efficiency.

I've been driving the Peugeot 408 gasoline version for over two years, and honestly, the fuel consumption is quite concerning. The official claim is a combined fuel consumption of around 6.5 liters per 100 kilometers, but in my daily city driving with traffic congestion, it often spikes to over 9 liters. On the highway, when driving smoothly, it can drop to around 5.5 liters. There are numerous factors affecting this: aggressive driving habits like sudden acceleration or braking can cause the fuel consumption to rise sharply; using the air conditioning in hot weather adds at least an extra liter; and insufficient tire pressure increases resistance. Although the fuel consumption is on the higher side, the 408 handles well and is comfortable, making it quite stable for long-distance driving. To save money, I recommend developing a gentle driving habit, regularly checking the car's condition, and calculating the actual data each month when refueling—don’t just rely on the official figures. Overall, it’s suitable for city commuting, but be prepared to spend a bit more on fuel.

Is It Safe to Keep Perfume in a Car?

Keeping perfume in a car is unsafe, especially during summer. Perfumes contain alcohol, which is flammable. In summer, the temperature inside a parked car can exceed 65°C after just half an hour of sunlight exposure. The volatile substances from car perfumes have an explosion threshold of 49°C, making them prone to explosion. Items not to leave in a car during summer: 1. Lighters: These are the most dangerous and commonly forgotten items. Some drivers habitually place lighters on the dashboard, which is highly risky. The gas inside disposable lighters expands when heated, and the plastic casing can explode due to the heat. If it comes into contact with flammable materials inside the car, it can easily cause a fire. 2. Carbonated Drinks: The dissolved gas in carbonated drinks can evaporate under high temperatures, causing the bottle to burst. While this won't lead to a fire, it can dirty the car's interior. With the variety of drinks available in the market, it's best to take them with you if you're unsure of their ingredients.

What are the precautions and details for reverse parking?

Reverse parking details are: Steady! Slow! Quick! Early! Precautions for reverse parking: 1. When reversing: Pay attention to the surrounding environment of the vehicle. Don't focus solely on the rear of the car, especially when there are vehicles on both sides. Periodically check whether your car's front bumper might collide with the vehicles on either side. 2. Obstacles: When passing by a parking space before parking, also pay early attention to whether there are obstacles around the parking space, whether the terrain is flat, or if there are small animals in the parking space. 3. Stabilize: If there are obstacles on both sides when parking, try to keep the car body to the left when reversing to the left, and to the right when reversing to the right. This makes it easier to turn the steering wheel back to the correct position earlier and reduces the reversing distance. Straighten the steering wheel before the car comes to a complete stop, or even turn the steering wheel in the opposite direction once. This can save a lot of effort when exiting the parking space.
