What is the fuel consumption of the Toyota IZOA?
2 Answers
The following is the fuel consumption data provided by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology for the IZOA: 1. Urban area: Urban driving cycle fuel consumption is 6.8L/100km. 2. Suburban area: Suburban driving cycle fuel consumption is 5L/100km. 3. Combined: Combined driving cycle fuel consumption is 5.7L/100km. Below is extended information on related content: 1. Fuel consumption generally refers to constant-speed fuel consumption: Constant-speed fuel consumption is the vehicle's fuel consumption per 100 kilometers obtained in the constant-speed driving fuel consumption test specified by national standards for certain types of vehicles. 2. Vehicle types: M1 category, M2 category with a maximum design total mass not exceeding 3.5t, and N1 category compressed natural gas vehicles; M1 category and N1 category vehicles with a maximum design total mass not exceeding 3.5t, tested according to the method specified in GB/T-12545.1-2008 "Test methods for fuel consumption of passenger cars"; M2 category, M3 category, N2 category, and N3 category compressed natural gas vehicles with a maximum design total mass exceeding 3.5t; M2 category, M3 category, and N category vehicles with a maximum total mass greater than or equal to 2t, tested according to the method specified in GB/T-12545.2-2001 "Test methods for fuel consumption of commercial vehicles".
I've been driving the Toyota IZOA for almost two years, and I'm quite satisfied with its fuel consumption. For city commuting, the average fuel consumption is around 7 liters per 100 kilometers; on highways for long-distance trips, it can drop to about 6 liters. Once, I drove from Beijing to Tianjin and only used 5.8 liters per 100 kilometers. Driving habits greatly affect fuel consumption. For example, I tend to press the accelerator lightly, avoid sudden braking, and don't use the air conditioning too much, which helps save fuel. Tire pressure is also crucial—I check it monthly and keep it at the recommended 2.3 bar. For maintenance, regular oil and filter changes keep the engine running more efficiently. The official combined fuel consumption is 6.3 liters, but my actual consumption is slightly higher. Still, as an SUV, it's more fuel-efficient than other vehicles in its class, costing me less than 600 yuan per month in fuel—economical and eco-friendly.
