What is the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers for the Prado?
2 Answers
The Prado consumes 13 to 14L per 100 kilometers. The Prado is an imported ORV, derived from Toyota's globally renowned LAND-CRUISER series. In 1996, Toyota officially named the LAND-CRUISER-FJ90 as the PRADO Prado, marking the first generation of the Prado in the true sense. Here is an introduction to the Toyota Prado: Exterior: The design of the Toyota Prado's front end continues its brand characteristics, featuring a vertically distributed front grille and upward-slanting headlight lines, with a wide surround highlighting its powerful side. Interior: The interior design of the Toyota Prado is more conventional, with wood grain panels and silver faux-metal materials embedded in the dashboard, reflecting high standards in both texture and assembly.
I've been driving the Prado for a while now. The fuel consumption is around 13 to 15 liters per 100 kilometers in the city, and it drops to about 10 liters on the highway. It's higher when stuck in traffic, and even more so when I step on the gas pedal hard. I always pay attention to changing the engine oil and air filter during each maintenance, which makes the ride smoother and the fuel consumption more stable. Although 95-octane fuel is more expensive, the ride is more comfortable. My monthly fuel expenses are around 1,000 yuan, which is still affordable. I've driven a friend's older 2.7L model, which had higher fuel consumption—14 liters in the city and 11 liters on the highway. When the weather is hot and the air conditioning is running at full blast, it adds another 1-2 liters. I heard the new hybrid version consumes about 8 liters per 100 kilometers, but it's significantly more expensive. I find that maintaining a speed of 80-90 kilometers per hour is the most fuel-efficient for this car, along with avoiding sudden braking and regularly checking tire pressure—it saves both hassle and money.
