What is the fuel consumption of the Volkswagen Golf?
1 Answers
Compared to other vehicles in the same class, the Golf has very low fuel consumption, averaging 7 liters per 100 kilometers. Reasons for high fuel consumption: Fuel consumption fluctuations due to temperature changes are normal. Generally, in winter when temperatures are low, fuel consumption tends to increase slightly. If the car hasn't been serviced for a long time, dirty engine oil and air filters can also lead to higher fuel consumption. Dirty engine oil results in poor lubrication, increasing resistance in the engine's moving parts and causing excessive carbon buildup in the car. Carbon deposits typically accumulate in the throttle body, fuel injectors, intake manifold, and piston tops. Excessive carbon deposits in any of these areas can lead to incomplete combustion, thereby increasing fuel consumption. Methods to reduce fuel consumption: A gentle and smooth driving style is the most fuel-efficient, and maintaining a steady speed is recommended. Check tire pressure monthly and rotate the tires as needed. At high speeds, opening windows significantly increases air resistance, which can actually lead to higher fuel consumption.
