The comprehensive fuel consumption of the Volkswagen Bora is 5.3-5.9L/100km. Currently, there are 15 models of the Volkswagen Bora on sale. The DSG Comfort Smart Edition and DSG Elite Smart Edition have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 5.3L/100km. The DSG Elite Smart Edition and DSG Luxury Smart Edition have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 5.5L/100km. The Automatic 30th Anniversary Edition, Automatic Comfort Smart Edition, Automatic Elite Smart Edition, Automatic Luxury Smart Edition, and Automatic Fashion Smart Edition have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 5.7L/100km. The Manual Fashion Smart Edition, Manual Comfort Smart Edition, Manual Fashion Type VI, and Manual Leading Type VI have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 5.8L/100km. The Automatic Fashion Type VI and Automatic Leading Type VI have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 5.9L/100km. The above figures are the NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption, which is the fuel consumption data measured under the NEDC test procedure. The actual fuel consumption is higher than these values, ranging from 5.3-8.8L/100km. When driving, the following five tips can help reduce fuel consumption: When starting the vehicle, use a low gear, gently press the accelerator, and gradually increase speed. Avoid suddenly pressing the accelerator hard, as this can multiply fuel consumption. Light acceleration and braking, early braking: While driving, gently press the accelerator to avoid sudden increases in engine RPM and prevent the car from shaking, thereby improving fuel efficiency. By anticipating road conditions and using slow, even acceleration or braking, fuel economy can be improved by up to 20%. Maintain proper tire pressure: Keep tire pressure at the level recommended by the manufacturer. For every 2 PSI below the recommended value (equivalent to about 0.2 in metric units, relative to the standard pressure of 2.4), fuel consumption increases by 1%. Regular maintenance or vehicle inspection: Regular oil changes can reduce carbon buildup (carbon buildup can cause ignition issues, sluggish acceleration, increased fuel consumption, and in severe cases, even cylinder misfires). Regularly check and replace the air filter if dirty, and clean or replace the fuel injectors, spark plugs, and throttle body as per the recommended mileage. Close windows while driving. Driving with windows open increases wind resistance, which in turn increases the resistance the car faces, requiring more power and thus increasing fuel consumption.

I've been driving a Volkswagen for several years, and fuel consumption really can't be generalized. My 1.4T Golf can reach 7.5L in the city with the AC on, but drops to around 5.8L on the highway. My neighbor's 2.0T Tiguan easily hits 9L in the city and over 7L on the highway. The new hybrid models are more fuel-efficient—my colleague's plug-in hybrid Passat can run 60 km on pure electric power when fully charged, with a combined fuel consumption of just 1.8L. The transmission also makes a big difference; the DSG dual-clutch saves about 0.8L compared to the older AT. Tire pressure, AC usage, and even clutter in the trunk can cause fuel consumption to fluctuate by 0.3-0.5L. It's best to check real-world data on apps like Xiaoxiong Fuel Consumption before buying a car.

The fuel consumption per 100 kilometers varies significantly among Volkswagen models. For compact cars like the Polo with a 1.5L naturally aspirated manual transmission, it can be controlled under 6L if driven skillfully, though fewer people drive manuals nowadays. Urban traffic congestion consumes the most fuel—I used to drive a Sagitar 1.4T, and during morning rush hour traffic, consumption could reach 8.5L. Winter fuel consumption is generally about 0.5L higher, especially in northern regions where warming up the car is necessary. The new 1.5T engine shows clear improvements, saving at least 0.6L compared to older models. For those who frequently drive long distances, German cars have a notable advantage in highway fuel efficiency. Maintenance is also crucial—I delayed replacing the air filter during my second service, and fuel consumption increased by 0.7L immediately. I recommend monitoring fuel consumption through the trip computer data on the dashboard.

Fuel consumption varies significantly across different Volkswagen models. For compact cars like the Lavida, the 1.5L engine averages around 7L in city driving; for mid-size sedans such as the Magotan, the 2.0T version typically consumes 8-9L. SUVs generally consume 2L more, with the Tiguan L often hovering around 9L in urban areas. The powertrain is the most critical factor—the EA888 engine with cylinder deactivation technology is indeed more fuel-efficient. Driving habits also have a substantial impact; I've found that smooth driving can save up to 1.2L compared to aggressive acceleration. Fuel quality shouldn't be overlooked either—using 95-octane fuel saves 0.3L per 100km over 92-octane. Vehicle load exceeding 200kg increases fuel consumption by 0.8L. Surprisingly, driving with windows open on the highway consumes more fuel than using air conditioning. When referencing official WLTC data, it's advisable to add 1-1.5L to approximate real-world consumption.

For popular Volkswagen models: the Polo manual transmission averages around 5.8L, while the automatic version consumes 6.5L. The Lavida 1.5L fluctuates between 6-7L. The Sagitar 1.4T reaches approximately 7.5L in city driving. The Passat hybrid can go as low as 1.8L. SUVs like the Tiguan L typically start from 8L. Engine oil viscosity has a noticeable impact—using 0W20 saves about 0.5L compared to 5W30. Fuel consumption usually drops by around 0.8L after the first maintenance for new cars. Running the AC at maximum increases fuel consumption by 1L. For every 0.2bar decrease in tire pressure, fuel consumption rises by 0.3L. Regular throttle body cleaning is recommended; after cleaning mine, fuel consumption decreased by 0.6L. Recording each refueling data provides the most accurate measurement.
