What is the real fuel consumption of the Tourneo automatic transmission?
2 Answers
The real fuel consumption of the Tourneo automatic transmission is 9.6L per 100 kilometers. Below is a detailed introduction about vehicle fuel consumption per 100 kilometers: 1. Overview: Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers refers to the amount of fuel consumed by a vehicle traveling 100 kilometers on the road at a certain speed. It is a theoretical indicator for vehicles. The fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is measured by manufacturers in an objective environment using a dynamometer installed on the vehicle's chassis, converting the obtained values into speed parameters, and then calculating the theoretical experimental fuel consumption data per 100 kilometers for the model at specified speeds. 2. Others: Since most vehicles approach their most economical speed at 90 km/h, the theoretical fuel consumption figures published by most manufacturers are usually based on the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers at 90 km/h.
I have been driving the Tourneo automatic transmission model for three years, mainly commuting in the city, with an average fuel consumption of around 12 to 14 liters per 100 kilometers. On highways, it can drop below 10 liters, which feels quite good. However, this number depends heavily on driving habits—if you frequently accelerate hard or brake suddenly, fuel consumption can spike above 15 liters. Road conditions also play a big role; frequent traffic jams in urban areas increase fuel consumption. I’ve also noticed that maintenance affects fuel efficiency—for example, regular oil changes and air filter replacements can save you about 1-2 liters. Using the air conditioning excessively can add an extra half to one liter, especially during long summer drives. Overall, don’t rely too much on official data, as it’s measured under ideal conditions; real-world experience is often higher. Personally, I think this should be considered when buying a car, or fuel costs might exceed your budget.
