What is the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers of the Kymco CT250?
2 Answers
Due to the reduction in curb weight and shortened wheelbase, the Kymco CT250 has a comprehensive fuel consumption of approximately 4.3L per 100 kilometers. More detailed information is as follows: 1. Engine: The Kymco CT250 is a scooter developed with reference to the Kymco Xciting 250, but with a flatter floorboard, certain load-bearing capacity, and a slightly shorter wheelbase, which improves handling. However, it still uses the same single-cylinder, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected engine as the Xciting 250. 2. Power: This engine has an actual displacement of 249ml, with a maximum power of 16KW at 7500rpm and a maximum torque of 22N.m at 6500rpm. Its power tuning is not much different from other scooters, being more biased towards low and medium speeds.
As a veteran rider commuting daily on a Kymco CT250 for nearly three years, my fuel consumption averages around 3.6 liters per 100 km. In city traffic jams, it can rise to 4 liters, while highway cruising drops it to 3.2 liters. Saving money relies on driving habits: gentle acceleration, avoiding sudden throttle inputs, and anticipating traffic lights to minimize braking. Maintain tire pressure at 2.5 bar – both underinflation and overinflation increase fuel consumption; once I forgot to inflate, and consumption jumped to 4.3 liters. Avoid carrying heavy loads on the rear seat as extra luggage spikes fuel usage. Monthly oil checks with quality replacements keep the engine running smoother. A full tank reliably covers 500 km – economical and safe, making it ideal for urban commuting.
