Which has higher fuel consumption, the Prado 4000 or the Patrol?
1 Answers
It depends on the specific model. The Prado 4000 has an average fuel consumption of around 14 liters per 100 kilometers, while the Patrol 5.6L model consumes approximately 16 liters per 100 kilometers. Here are some specific methods to reduce fuel consumption: 1. Lightly press the accelerator: The initial acceleration at low speeds is a peak fuel consumption period, so gently pressing the accelerator during startup can prevent excessively high RPMs and effectively reduce fuel consumption. 2. Avoid high RPMs: Try to avoid unnecessary high RPMs, as fluctuating engine speeds can significantly increase fuel usage. 3. Regular maintenance: Change the engine oil and remove carbon deposits. 4. Avoid sudden braking: Anticipating road conditions in advance not only improves driving safety but also saves fuel, such as gradually slowing down before traffic lights and utilizing inertia to coast.
