What is the fuel consumption per 100 km for the Honda Vezel?
2 Answers
The Honda Vezel has a total of 8 models currently on sale. For the Vezel 2022 1.5L CVT Phantom Night Pioneer Edition, equipped with a 131 horsepower engine, the NEDC fuel consumption is 5.1L per 100 km. The Vezel 2020 1.5L CVT Elite Edition, also with a 131 horsepower engine, has an NEDC fuel consumption of 6L per 100 km. The Vezel 2020 1.5L Manual Comfort Edition, featuring a 131 horsepower engine, consumes 6.3L per 100 km under NEDC standards. The Vezel 2020 1.5L CVT Luxury Edition and Pioneer Edition, both with 131 horsepower engines, have an NEDC fuel consumption of 6.1L per 100 km. The Vezel 2020 220 TURBO CVT Flagship Edition, Luxury Edition, and Elite Edition, equipped with 177 horsepower engines, all have an NEDC fuel consumption of 6.1L per 100 km. All Honda Vezel models share the same fuel tank capacity. The distance that can be covered on a full tank of fuel is as follows: For models with 131 horsepower engines and a 50L fuel tank capacity, the distance per full tank is 50/5.1*100=980 km, 50/6*100=833 km, 50/6.3*100=794 km, and 50/6.1*100=820 km. For models with 177 horsepower engines and a 50L fuel tank capacity, the distance per full tank is 50/6.1*100=820 km. Vehicle fuel consumption is directly influenced by five major factors: driving habits, the vehicle itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that increase fuel consumption include: Driving habits: Aggressive driving behaviors such as rapid acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before stopping at red lights can increase fuel consumption. The vehicle itself: Vehicles with larger engine displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements typically produce more power, requiring more gasoline for combustion. Heavier vehicles also consume more fuel due to the greater driving torque needed. 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: Cold engine blocks make it harder for gasoline to atomize during cold starts, requiring more fuel for combustion and increasing consumption. Additionally, lower temperatures prompt the engine's computer to use higher RPMs to warm up the engine, further increasing fuel consumption.
I've been commuting with my Honda HR-V, and I find its fuel consumption quite economical. In the city, it's around 6.5 to 7 liters per 100 kilometers, and on the highway, it can drop below 6 liters. From my experience, driving habits are crucial: avoiding sudden acceleration and hard braking, and maintaining a steady speed is the most fuel-efficient. Cranking up the air conditioning too much can increase fuel consumption by about 1 liter. Regular maintenance also plays a big role—for example, changing the air filter and engine oil every six months and keeping tire pressure at the recommended level can prevent increased fuel consumption. If it's the hybrid version, the fuel consumption is even lower, around 5 liters, which is great for those looking to save money. Seasonal changes also matter; in summer, rolling down the windows for ventilation is more economical than using the AC. Overall, the HR-V is very practical for city commuting, offering great value for money, and I save a significant amount on fuel costs every month.
