What is the fuel consumption of the Vios FS?

The Vios FS currently has one model on sale, the 2022 1.5L-CVT Fengchi CARE edition, equipped with a 110 horsepower engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 5L per 100 kilometers. The fuel tank capacity of the Vios FS 2022 1.5L-CVT Fengchi CARE edition is 42L, and the distance it can travel on a full tank is as follows: 42/5*100=840km. The level of a car's fuel consumption is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that can increase a car's fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not releasing the throttle in advance when approaching a red light, can increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger displacement generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacement because larger displacement usually means greater power, requiring more gasoline to burn and perform work. Cars with greater weight will have higher fuel consumption because greater weight requires more driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountain 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 temperature: When the engine block temperature is low, the gasoline injected during a cold start does not atomize easily, requiring more gasoline to be injected for combustion, thus increasing fuel consumption. Additionally, at low temperatures, the engine's computer will control the engine to run at higher RPMs to warm up the car, which also increases fuel consumption.
I've been driving the Vios FS for almost two years now, and the most noticeable thing is how fuel-efficient this car is. During daily city commutes with traffic jams, the fuel consumption is around 6.5 liters per 100 km, while on highways it can drop to just over 5 liters. I once specifically tested it on a full highway trip - driving 300 kilometers with an average of only 4.9 liters. With its small fuel tank, that works out to less than 0.4 yuan per kilometer. However, fuel consumption can vary significantly - I have a friend with the same model who gets over 7 liters due to his aggressive driving habits of sudden acceleration and braking, plus frequently underinflated tires. I recommend not setting the AC too high, avoiding overloading the trunk with unnecessary items, and regularly maintaining the air filter, as these can all noticeably improve fuel efficiency. Toyota's 1.5L engine paired with CVT transmission really excels in fuel economy - even during summer highway trips with AC on, the fuel consumption doesn't increase much, which is far better than the domestic cars I've driven before.
