1.0L displacement cars typically have a fuel consumption of around 4-5 liters per 100 kilometers. Car Displacement: Car displacement, a specialized term in hydraulic transmission, refers to the volume of fluid inhaled or discharged per stroke or cycle. Car displacement is an important parameter for measuring a vehicle. The displacement size is usually indicated at the rear of the car. Fuel Consumption per 100 Kilometers: Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers refers to the amount of fuel a vehicle consumes when driving a certain speed on the road for 100 kilometers. It is a theoretical indicator of the vehicle. The fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is a value measured by the manufacturer under objective conditions using a dynamometer installed on the vehicle's chassis, converted into speed parameters, and then calculated by driving at specified speeds to determine the theoretical experimental fuel consumption data per 100 kilometers for the model.

I've driven several 1.0L compact cars, and fuel consumption really can't be judged solely by engine displacement. My manual transmission Honda Fit averages around 5.5L on suburban roads, but jumps above 7L in traffic jams. A colleague with a new three-cylinder Buick Excelle is even more frustrated - the dashboard shows 5.8L but actual consumption is 1.5L higher, and the three-cylinder engine requires aggressive throttle input at low speeds. Many small-displacement turbocharged models like the Polo 1.0T do achieve under 5L on highways, but their consumption can easily double in stop-and-go traffic. Vehicle weight is also crucial - compact SUVs with the same displacement burn at least 1L more than sedans. When I first got my license and drove an Alto, aggressive driving could push consumption to 8L.

From a car tester's perspective, the 1.0L fuel consumption figures are quite interesting. Lab tests using WLTP standards typically show results in the 4-5L range, but this is like a perfect exam score report. In reality, based on data I've recorded from hundreds of 1.0L car owners, actual urban fuel consumption mostly falls between 6-8L. Engine technology makes a significant difference: older QQ models with cast iron engines consume about 7L even on highways, while newer Fiesta Ecoboost models can achieve 4.8L on national roads. The transmission has an even greater impact - when driving the same car model with MT and DCT versions, the automatic version typically consumes 1L more on average. Tire size is another often overlooked factor - a Benben with 175mm wide tires burns 0.5L more per 100km than an Alto with 155mm wide tires.

As a mom using a 1.0L car for school runs, the fuel consumption really worries me. The dashboard constantly shows 8.5L/100km during the daily 3km stop-and-go commute to pick up my child. I specifically tested highway driving on weekends: with AC on at 100km/h it's about 6L, turning AC off drops it to 5.3L. Once when fuel consumption inexplicably increased, diagnostics revealed an oxygen sensor issue - fixing it immediately saved 1L. After installing tire pressure monitoring and maintaining 2.5bar (versus the previous 2.2bar), I saved 0.7L. My advice for urban commuters choosing 1.0L engines: budget 30% extra fuel beyond the manual's claims - those figures are rarely achievable.
