What is the real fuel consumption of the 2005 Corolla 1.8?
2 Answers
The real fuel consumption of the 2005 Corolla 1.8 is 8.96L/100KM. Here are some methods to reduce the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers for the Corolla: 1. During gear shifting: Shift gears quickly and promptly, especially when driving on slopes. The shorter the gear shifting time, the better the car's power performance, and the more fuel you can save. If gear shifting is not timely and there is poor coordination between hands and feet leading to unnecessary throttle pressing, it will significantly increase fuel consumption. 2. Braking: Reduce the use of brakes. Braking is essentially a process of energy conversion, and braking means energy consumption. Therefore, when approaching intersections or going downhill, you should lift the throttle in advance. If the car performs well, you can also shift to neutral and coast, allowing the car to slow down naturally to "substitute coasting for braking."
I'm a long-time owner of a 2005 Corolla 1.8, driving it for over a decade. Real fuel consumption depends on road conditions: 12-14 liters per 100km in congested city traffic, 8-10 liters on steady highway driving, averaging around 11 liters. Gentle driving saves fuel - avoid sudden acceleration and braking. Cold starts consume more fuel in winter, while AC usage increases consumption in summer. Regular maintenance is crucial: changing engine oil, air filters, and spark plugs helps maintain stable fuel consumption around 10 liters/100km. After my last parts replacement, consumption dropped by 1 liter. Neglected older cars can reach 15 liters/100km, so timely servicing saves trouble.
