Subaru 2.5T engine fuel consumption is 7.1L/100km. Engine fuel consumption: The combined fuel consumption is 7.1L/100km. For this type of vehicle, the overall fuel consumption is approximately 8. The Subaru Legacy is equipped with a 2.5-liter horizontally opposed 4-cylinder engine, which delivers excellent performance and features a full-time all-wheel-drive system. The combined fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is around 8.5 liters. When driving on urban roads, it may reach 9.5~10 liters. Subaru Horizontally Opposed Intelligent Engine: The Subaru Horizontally Opposed Intelligent Engine not only improves road performance but also enhances off-road capability by flexibly utilizing the powerful torque and responsive sensitivity of the motor when driving and controlling on stable roads. The 2.5-liter naturally aspirated engine has a maximum power of 129kW, paired with a smooth-shifting CVT transmission.
I've driven Subaru's 2.5T engine cars, like the Outback, and the fuel consumption in the city isn't exactly low, averaging around 11-14 liters per 100 kilometers, especially during rush hour traffic when it's even more fuel-intensive. On the highway, it's much better, roughly 8-10 liters. Overall, the combined fuel consumption is probably around 10-12 liters. If you want to save some fuel, I think driving gently and avoiding frequent rapid acceleration helps since the turbo kicks in and consumes more fuel. Checking tire pressure weekly and changing to good engine oil can also improve efficiency a bit. In practical use, this engine is powerful, with a satisfying push-back feeling, and the slightly higher fuel consumption is acceptable. It doesn't feel strenuous when taking the family out with kids, and a full tank typically gets you a little over 500 kilometers.
