The secrets behind Fuel consumption: Factors that affect your wallet!
JohnSep 06, 2024, 12:06 PM
When you buy a car, what parameters are you most concerned about? Is it about its power performance indicators, or its body size? Or is it its exterior design style? Each focus is very important, but the factor that has the greatest impact on subsequent vehicle use costs is actually the Fuel consumption performance of each car, which will directly affect the subsequent driving costs with the change in oil prices, let's talk about Fuel consumption today. The content will be divided into three parts: the calculation principle of Fuel consumption, performance standard measurement, and information acquisition of Fuel consumption.
1. How to calculate fuel consumption?
First of all, it needs to be clear that the value of Fuel consumption is not a direct and accurate job description, it is the value calculated under various conditions, and then the average value is obtained. It should be noted that the calculation mentioned in this article is based on the fuel consumption calculation standard for fuel vehicles, and the calculation standard for hybrid models needs to be calculated in two situations: electric mode and hybrid mode, comprehensive value.
If you want to calculate the fuel consumption performance of a car, you first need to ensure the accuracy of the test environment. The guarantee of the test environment includes: 1. Ensure that the vehicle is in a cooled state before starting. 2. Normal driving behavior, there must be no sudden stops or abrupt stops that cause inaccurate data. 3. Have tests in various road conditions, including urban roads, country roads, and highways.
According to the actual measurement records the value, including fuel consumption and mileage, finally according to the formula: Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers = (Fuel consumed / Distance traveled) x 100, calculate the fuel consumption performance of the fuel vehicle per 100 kilometers. Therefore, based on the understanding of the test principle, the owner can know that fuel consumption is not a rigid number, but a comprehensive performance value based on various factors.
2. what is good fuel consumption?
So, after knowing the calculation standard of Fuel consumption, are you still confused with the multitude of fuel consumption data, because you still don't have a clear understanding of the concept of Fuel consumption? This article will continue to tell you the evaluation standard of Fuel consumption.
The first thing to clarify is that the same fuel consumption data behaves differently in different displacement and different car models, and the evaluation will be different. Generally, the fuel consumption of private cars and SUVs is mostly based on the standard of 6-10L/100km. If it exceeds 10L/100km, it will be relatively fuel-consuming, but if it is a large car, the performance of more than 10L/100km is also relatively normal.
3. how to know the fuel consumption of a car?
After understanding the standard of fuel consumption, are you eager to evaluate and learn about the cars currently available on the market? So how do you get the fuel consumption information of car models?
Usually there are three ways to get it, the first is the official website information of various car companies. The description of specific models will include information on Fuel consumption. The second is to enter the actual 4S shop, there will be corresponding sales staff to help understand the vehicle's fuel consumption information, as well as various related information. The third is to come to our website, enter the series page, you can see detailed Fuel consumption information.
