What is the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers for the Suzuki Swift 1.3 manual transmission?

The Suzuki Swift 1.3 manual transmission has one model currently on sale, specifically the 2014 1.3L manual standard version, equipped with a 91 horsepower engine, which has an NEDC fuel consumption of 6.5L per 100 kilometers. The fuel tank capacity varies among different models of the Suzuki Swift 1.3 manual transmission. The distance that can be covered with a full tank of fuel is as follows: For the model equipped with a 91 horsepower engine, the fuel tank capacity is 45L, allowing a distance of 45/6.5*100=692KM on a full tank. Automobile fuel consumption is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the vehicle itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that can increase fuel consumption include: Driving habits: Aggressive driving behaviors such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before reaching traffic lights can increase fuel consumption. The vehicle itself: Cars with larger engine displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements typically require more power and thus more gasoline for combustion. Heavier vehicles also consume more fuel due to the greater driving torque required. Road conditions: Driving on unpaved roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous terrain increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases vehicle resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily during cold starts, requiring more gasoline for combustion, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, in cold temperatures, the engine's computer may control the engine to run at higher RPMs to warm up, further increasing fuel consumption.
I've been driving this car for several years, a manual transmission 1.3L Suzuki Swift with a combined fuel consumption of around 5.5 to 6.5 liters per 100 kilometers, depending on how it's driven. In city traffic with frequent congestion, I've calculated it often stays around 7 liters; on highways with steady driving, it can drop to 5.5 liters. From my personal experience, after changing to new tires, the fuel consumption decreased from 6.3 to 5.8 liters. Regular oil changes and gentle throttle application also help save fuel—avoid aggressive acceleration or sudden braking. Once on a long-distance trip on flat highways, I achieved 5.2 liters per 100 km, covering nearly 1,000 kilometers on a full tank, which was both economical and eco-friendly. Small-displacement cars are durable; even after years of use, it still feels like new with proper maintenance.
