What is the real fuel consumption of the T-Roc 280?
2 Answers
The real fuel consumption of the T-Roc 280 is approximately 8 liters per 100 kilometers. Relevant information about vehicle fuel consumption is as follows: 1. Constant speed fuel consumption: This refers to the fuel economy indicator when a vehicle is driving at a constant speed on a good road surface. Since constant speed driving is a basic operating condition for vehicles on highways, and this type of fuel consumption is easy to measure, it is widely adopted. 2. Road cycle fuel consumption: This is the fuel economy indicator measured when a vehicle is driven in repeated cycles according to specified speed and time regulations on the road, also known as multi-condition road cycle fuel consumption. In the speed and time specifications, each cycle includes various driving conditions, and specifies the shifting times, braking and stopping times, as well as the values of driving speed, acceleration, and braking deceleration for each cycle.
I've been driving the T-Roc 280 for over a year now. The real-world fuel consumption for city commuting is around 8-9 liters per 100km, while on highways it can drop to about 6 liters. The car's 1.4T engine paired with the dual-clutch transmission is quite mature in technology, but fuel consumption heavily depends on driving habits - I've seen it go up to 10 liters when accelerating aggressively frequently. It runs fine on 92-octane gasoline, and maintaining tire pressure at 2.5 bar helps with fuel efficiency. Using AC in summer adds about half a liter, and a loaded trunk also affects consumption. Actually, for an SUV, this fuel consumption is average - to save fuel, develop the habit of anticipating road conditions and brake less. With recent fuel price hikes, I've started using Eco mode, and the effect is quite noticeable.
