Which is more fuel-efficient, 2.0L or 1.5T?
1 Answers
1.5T uses direct injection, while 2.0L uses port fuel injection. Combined with the smaller displacement, the 1.5T is generally more fuel-efficient. However, determining which is more fuel-efficient between 1.5T and 2.0L ultimately depends on the specific vehicle model. A simple and broad comparison is meaningless, as many factors affect fuel consumption. It is not necessarily true that a smaller displacement always means better fuel economy. Below are some factors that influence fuel consumption: Vehicle Load: Overloading the vehicle or carrying heavy items in the trunk increases the weight. Removing 10kg of luggage when driving 100km can save about 30ml of fuel. Poor Driving Habits: Aggressive braking, driving at high speeds in low gears, frequent braking, and hard acceleration can all increase fuel consumption. Weather Conditions: Fuel consumption rises significantly in summer, mainly due to air conditioning use. Windy, rainy, and snowy days also consume more fuel than clear days, primarily because of increased road resistance.
