What is the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers for the Dodge Journey 2.4L?
1 Answers
The Dodge Journey 2.4L is equipped with a 170 horsepower engine, with an official fuel consumption of 9.6L per 100 kilometers. The fuel tank capacity of the Dodge Journey 2.4L is 78L. With a full tank, it can travel a distance of 78/9.6*100=812.5km. 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 are as follows: 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 displacement generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacement because larger displacement usually means greater 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 temperature: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily during cold starts, 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.
