What is the fuel consumption of the Prado 2700?
3 Answers
Prado 2700 comprehensive fuel consumption is 13.8L/100km. The Prado 2700 SUV belongs to the Toyota Land Cruiser (land-cruiser-prado) series, equipped with the newly developed Toyota four-cylinder electronic fuel injection 2TR-FE engine, with a displacement of 2694cc, excellent power performance, and exhaust emissions that meet the Euro III standard. Fuel consumption, abbreviated as fuel usage, refers to the liters of fuel consumed by a car when traveling a certain distance. In China, the unit of fuel consumption is L/100km, which means the liters of fuel consumed per 100 kilometers traveled. The smaller this number, the better the fuel economy of the car.
I've been driving the Prado 2700 for several years, and I feel that in city driving, the fuel consumption is basically between 13 to 15 liters per 100 kilometers. On the highway, it drops a bit, reaching around 10 to 11 liters. I mainly use this car for commuting to and from work, and the fuel consumption is even higher in traffic jams, sometimes jumping to 16 liters. On weekends, long-distance highway driving is much more fuel-efficient. I think driving habits mainly affect fuel consumption—rapid acceleration and hard braking are very fuel-consuming, so I've learned to drive smoothly. Regular maintenance is also quite crucial; changing the engine oil and checking the filters can help a bit. Over the long term, the average fuel consumption has been maintained at a little over 12 liters, which isn't super fuel-efficient but is reasonable and acceptable for an SUV.
Just got my hands on a Prado 2700, and the novelty hasn't worn off yet. In terms of fuel consumption, actual tests show around 14 to 16 liters per 100 kilometers in the city, while on highways it can be controlled between 9 to 11 liters. Before buying this car, I read online that the official data was understated, and indeed, the actual consumption is much higher. But the power is strong enough, and it doesn't falter on mountain roads. I usually enjoy driving out for fun, and with a few friends on board, the fuel consumption increases a bit. Overall, it lives up to its off-road performance. After driving it for a while, I noticed that starting slower can save fuel. Now, the average is about 13 liters per 100 kilometers, which is acceptable—not as scary as what's said online.
