What is the fuel consumption of the Tiguan L?
1 Answers
The Tiguan L currently has 6 models on sale. Among them, four models including the 2022 330TSI Automatic Two-Wheel Drive Comfort Edition and the 2022 330TSI Automatic Two-Wheel Drive Premium Edition, equipped with a 186-horsepower engine, have an NEDC fuel consumption of 6.6L per 100 kilometers. Two models, such as the 2022 380TSI Automatic Four-Wheel Drive R-Line Premium Edition 7-Seater, equipped with a 220-horsepower engine, have an NEDC fuel consumption of 7.7L per 100 kilometers. The fuel tank capacity varies among different Tiguan L models. The distance that can be covered with a full tank of fuel is as follows: Models equipped with a 186-horsepower engine have a fuel tank capacity of 60L, allowing a distance of 60/6.6*100=909KM on a full tank. Models equipped with a 220-horsepower engine have a fuel tank capacity of 62.5L, allowing a distance of 62.5/7.7*100=812KM on a full tank. The fuel consumption of a car is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that can increase fuel consumption include: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before a red light, can increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger engine displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements usually mean higher power, requiring more gasoline for combustion. Heavier cars also consume more fuel because greater weight requires more driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases the car's resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily, requiring more gasoline for combustion, thus increasing fuel consumption. Additionally, at low temperatures, the engine's computer may control the engine to run at higher RPMs to warm up, which also increases fuel consumption.
