What is the fuel consumption of the SYM Fiddle 4?
2 Answers
The SYM Fiddle 4 has a combined fuel consumption of 5.2-5.6L per 100 kilometers. Currently, there are 6 models of the SYM Fiddle 4 available for sale. The combined fuel consumption of the Trend Start version is 5.2L/100km. The Trend Enjoy and Trend Run versions have a combined fuel consumption of 5.3L/100km. The Trend Run Pro, Trend Cross Max, and Trend Cross versions have a combined fuel consumption of 5.6L/100km. The above figures are based on the NEDC combined fuel consumption, which is measured under the NEDC test procedure. The actual fuel consumption is higher than this value, around 5.6L. Here are 5 tips to help reduce fuel consumption while driving: When starting the vehicle, use a low gear, gently press the accelerator, and gradually increase speed. Avoid suddenly pressing the accelerator hard, as this can multiply fuel consumption. Light acceleration, light braking, and early braking: While driving, gently press the accelerator to avoid sudden increases in engine RPM and prevent the car from shaking, which helps save fuel. By anticipating road conditions and applying slow, even acceleration or braking, fuel economy can be improved by up to 20%. Maintain proper tire pressure: Keep tire pressure at the manufacturer's recommended level. For every 2 PSI below the recommended value (equivalent to about 0.2 in metric units relative to the standard pressure of 2.4), fuel consumption increases by 1%. Regular vehicle maintenance or inspection: Timely oil changes can reduce carbon buildup (which can cause poor ignition, sluggish acceleration, increased fuel consumption, and even cylinder misfires in severe cases). Regularly check and replace the air filter when dirty, and clean or replace the fuel injectors, spark plugs, and throttle body as per the recommended mileage. Keep windows closed while driving. Open windows increase wind resistance, which in turn increases the resistance the car faces, requiring more power and thus increasing fuel consumption.
I've been commuting on a SYM Fiddle 4, and its fuel efficiency is really impressive, averaging around 40 to 50 kilometers per liter, depending on how you ride. I've calculated that in congested city traffic, it drops to about 40 km/L, while on the highway, it can reach up to 50 km/L. For my daily mixed route, it stays stable at 45 km/L, which is very fuel-efficient. Many factors affect fuel consumption, like sudden acceleration or heavy loads, which can lower the numbers; maintaining proper tire pressure and regular maintenance can significantly improve performance. I've also compared it with other scooters, and this model's fuel efficiency is above average. Over a year, it can save you thousands in fuel costs, making it a practical choice for commuters. Remember to check the chain tension when washing the bike, as this can also improve efficiency. Overall, its design is reasonable, and it's easy to ride. I've been using it for two years and never complained about high fuel expenses.
