The relationship between automobile air conditioning and fuel consumption
First of all, in terms of displacement, when driving on a normal road, the fuel consumption increased by turning on the air conditioner is less than 1L; if the displacement is less than 2.4 liters, the fuel consumption will increase by more than 1L; if you encounter rugged roads, the fuel consumption will increase even more. There will be fewer reasons for the increase in fuel consumption because the large displacement is more powerful, and it is easier to drive on many road sections, while the small displacement is difficult to start, and the air-conditioning compressor also accounts for a part of the force, resulting in increased fuel consumption.
How much fuel consumption increases when the air conditioner is turned on is not only related to displacement, speed, and road surface, but also to various environments such as temperature and humidity. The test results are released and tested under different temperatures and humidity. It is found that the higher the temperature and humidity, the higher the fuel consumption. The more you increase, for example, if you turn on an air conditioner at 20°C, fuel consumption will increase by 10%-20%, and if you turn on an air conditioner at 40°C, fuel consumption will increase by more than 30%.
