Why is the Dongfeng Yixuan's fuel consumption so high?

1. To calculate how much a car costs per kilometer, you first need to know its fuel consumption. Divide the car's fuel consumption per 100 kilometers by 100 to get the fuel consumption per kilometer. Then multiply this figure by the price of gasoline to determine the fuel cost per kilometer. 2. For example, if a car consumes 6 liters per 100 kilometers and the price of 92-octane gasoline in Guangdong is 6.76 yuan per liter, the fuel cost for 100 kilometers (6 liters x 6.76 yuan/liter) would be approximately 40.56 yuan. Dividing 40.56 yuan by 100 kilometers and rounding off gives 0.41 yuan, meaning the fuel cost per kilometer is about 41 cents. 3. A car's fuel consumption is influenced by many factors, including driving conditions and habits. Examples include prolonged engine idling, sudden braking, inconsistent speeds, underinflated tires, aggressive acceleration, and long-distance driving at high speeds in low gears. Additionally, road conditions significantly affect fuel consumption, especially in urban traffic where congestion is common.
