What is the real fuel consumption of the Teramont 380 4WD?

The Teramont 380 4WD has 6 models currently on sale, including the 2021 Teramont 380TSI 4WD Premium Flagship, Premium Luxury, Luxury, and the 2022 Teramont 380TSI 4WD Premium Flagship, Premium Luxury, Luxury models, all equipped with a 220-horsepower engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 8.5L per 100km. The fuel tank capacity varies among different models of the Teramont 380 4WD. The distance that can be covered with a full tank of fuel is as follows: Models equipped with a 280-horsepower engine have a fuel tank capacity of 70L, and the distance that can be covered with a full tank is 70/8.5*100=823km. The fuel consumption of a car is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that can increase fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before a red light, can increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements usually mean higher power, requiring more gasoline to burn and perform work. Heavier cars also consume more fuel because greater weight requires more driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases the car's resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily, requiring more gasoline to burn, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, in low temperatures, the engine computer controls a higher idle speed to warm up the engine, which also increases fuel consumption.
I've been driving my Volkswagen Teramont 380 4WD for almost two years now. It's a real gas guzzler for daily city commuting, averaging 13-14 liters per 100 kilometers in urban traffic, and can spike up to 16 liters during rush hour congestion. Turning on the AC makes it even thirstier. On highways, it's better - maintaining a steady speed can bring it down to around 9 liters. The car is spacious and powerful, offering a comfortable ride, but the 4WD system adds extra weight. To save fuel, I've figured out a few tricks: avoid sudden braking, regularly check tire pressure to keep it at the recommended level (not too low or high), change engine oil on schedule, and clean the air filter frequently - these maintenance habits save some money. Overall, 4WD SUVs tend to have higher fuel consumption. Compared to the Highlander, the Teramont offers better handling but is noticeably thirstier. You get used to it though - you're paying for stability and spaciousness.
From a technical perspective on vehicle fuel consumption, the Touareg 380 4WD is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine and four-wheel drive, providing ample power but higher consumption. The actual fuel consumption typically ranges between 11-13 liters per 100 kilometers, with numerous influencing factors: road conditions play a major role, with stop-and-go city driving easily climbing to 14 liters, while highway cruising can drop to 8-9 liters. Driving habits are crucial—sudden acceleration or high-speed braking significantly increases fuel usage. Vehicle load also matters; carrying full luggage or additional passengers can add several liters. Fuel-saving tips include: gently pressing the throttle for smooth starts, using eco mode to avoid aggressive acceleration; maintaining tire pressure at the manufacturer's recommended level, as low pressure increases rolling resistance; and regular maintenance to clean carbon deposits, improving engine efficiency. These details can help, but the inherent nature of 4WD means slightly higher fuel consumption.
