Kia sorento 2.2 consumption. KIA Sorento gas mileage from DriverNotes. Generations of Kia Sorento and engine modifications

Since 2012, the latest generation of the famous Korean crossover Kia Sorento has become available in our country. Unfortunately, on some forums you can read information that this car consumes too much fuel - some car owners claim a fantastic 30 liters of consumption per hundred.

Naturally, many people immediately have two pressing questions:

• What fuel consumption rate is set by the manufacturer?
• What is the real fuel consumption for Kia Sorento?

To answer them, official information from manufacturers was carefully studied, as well as reviews from those people who are already actively using this product in their lives. car brand. Naturally, this review will collect information about those power units, as well as, in fact, fuel consumption per 100 km, which are most popular in the Russian Federation.

Official fuel consumption standards for the Kia Sorento and compliance with real reviews

Engine capacity – 2.2 liters

One of the most popular diesel engine options in our country. According to official data, this power unit should show a fuel consumption level in urban areas of no more than nine liters. Outside of it - around five. At the same time, there should be practically no difference in this indicator from the choice of gearbox - the car is offered with both mechanics and automatic.

What do car enthusiasts say about this:

1. Ilya. Nikolaevsk. I took the diesel version with manual transmission. The only problem is that it is difficult to start in very cold weather. Everything else is at a high level of quality. I drive exclusively around the city - my consumption clearly stays at around nine liters.
2. Sergey. Pyatigorsk I chose this option because of its cost-effectiveness. Indeed, on the highway there are rarely more than six liters of fuel per hundred square meters, in the city - a maximum of ten. The only negative is the weak power of this engine and, accordingly, poor dynamics.
3. Gena. Moscow region. I live outside a big city, so I often encounter poor road quality. I took a Kia Sorento Prime and never regretted my choice - it copes well with any difficulties, does not break down, and is very comfortable. And the consumption makes me very happy - no more than six liters of diesel fuel outside the city.
4. Alexander. Samara. This car was fitted to me as a work vehicle for my company. Of course, quality and comfort are top notch. But I wouldn’t buy such a model myself - in my opinion, it’s very expensive, and at the same time, it consumes a lot of fuel. I’m not a fan of driving, but still in our city, at best, 11 liters of diesel fuel comes out.
5. Vladislav. Petropavlovsk. I try to use my car only in good weather - there is a proven one for cold weather. Therefore, Kia is in almost perfect condition. Consumption in a populated area is about ten, outside it – up to 7, no more.

As reviews from real people show, this version of the power unit, in terms of diesel fuel consumption, does not coincide slightly with the characteristics that were originally stated by the manufacturer.

Engine capacity – 2.4 liters

One of the weakest power units from a Korean automaker that runs on gasoline. Possibility of purchase with automatic transmission or manual transmission. Official consumption standards Kia fuel Sorento 2.4 are as follows:

• Mechanics: 11.3/7.0/8.6 for city/highway/mixed cycle;
• Automatic: 11.9/6.7/8.6 for city/highway/mixed mode.

What real car owners say about this:

1. Konstantin. Saint Petersburg. For me, this car is very gluttonous. IN summer time only in the city limits it calmly consumes up to 15 liters. In winter – easily up to twenty. On the highway - a little better: average speed limit Gasoline consumption is approximately 11 liters.
2. Vasily. Astrakhan. I have only two directions: home - dacha and in reverse side. Naturally - mixed mode. Makes about twelve liters. Auto - manual.
3. Edik. Vladivostok. My wife really liked this model. I fell for her persuasion, bought it, and now I regret it. Even for an SUV, fuel consumption is very high - there are more economical options. For example, in the summer the norm for me in the city is 16 liters. In winter – easily 22 or more.
4. Ilya. Rostov. Every year I take my family to the Sea of ​​Azov. Naturally, I measure fuel consumption along the highway. It comes out to about 9.5 liters, which, given the reviews of other owners of this brand, I think is not bad at all.
5. Sergey. Moscow. I bought this model literally a year ago. Initially, fuel consumption was more or less: in the city - 12, outside - a little more than nine. But a few months ago I began to notice that the engine’s appetite was growing - now in Moscow there are at least 16. I’m afraid what will happen next.

Judging by people's reviews, the 2.4-liter gasoline engine from the Korean automaker is clearly a very poorly optimized option.

Engine capacity – 2.5 liters

KIA Sorenta 2.5 belongs to the penultimate generation of this vehicle, which was released in 2010. The engine is a diesel engine, which in our country was offered only with an automatic transmission. Official consumption rates:

• City - 11.3 liters;
• Highway – 6.8 liters;
• Mixed mode – 8.4.

What's in reality:

1. Jan. Sergeev-Posad. I have owned this model for a long time - in fact, since its appearance in local car dealerships. I don’t even want to talk about quality - for such a price everything is... top level. I think fuel consumption is also within the normal range - within the city limits I get about 12 liters, outside the populated area - about 8.
2. Taras. Kostroma. I bought it from a friend, who decided to switch to Ford. Now he regrets - Kia actually consumes less diesel fuel compared to the option he chose. In the city it turns out to be around 12-13, outside the line - about ten.
3. Anatoly. Sochi. When I took it, I was very surprised - I consumed more than 15 liters within the city. I took it to the service station - the guys were up to something there. The result is that for more than three years now he has been consuming about 12 liters of diesel fuel. When driving on rural areas- leaves around 9.
4. Sergey. Tolyatti. I bought this model more than three years ago. and comfort is at its best, so I put up with the excessive, in my opinion, overconsumption of gasoline: in the city it is about 14, on the highway - in the region of tens.
5. Michael. Kyiv. I travel a lot around the region for work, so I was able to measure the consumption both in the city and outside it: in populated areas - 12 liters, on regional roads - 9.5 liters.

In general, car enthusiasts have a good attitude towards this option, although the power unit still consumes more than it should according to official fuel consumption standards.

Power unit volume – 3.3 liters

One of the most powerful engines in the line of power units for the Kia Sorento. Power – 250 horsepower. Official consumption rate: city – 10.5 liters, highway – 8.0 liters. Gearbox – in our country only automatic transmission.

Real fuel consumption figures based on reviews from car owners:

1. Marina. Moscow. My husband gave it to me. I really like the car - I immediately see respect on the road for myself and my vehicle. We took it at the end of 2014. Kia has proven its reliability - we only went to the service station a few times to change something. But little things. In terms of consumption: in the city - about 15, outside the line - around 10.
2. Sergey. Glukhovo. I work in agriculture. Therefore, you often have to drive off-road and cover quite long distances at a time. Therefore, when the opportunity arose, I took myself a Sorento with a 3.3-liter engine. For such volume and power - consumption is considered very acceptable - I use about tens of liters of gasoline outside the city.
3. Marat. Belgorod. My wife loves comfort, and I love it. That’s why we chose the Kia Sorento, which perfectly combines both necessary qualities. Naturally, the consumption of this car is quite serious - only on the highway it consumes about 10-11, and in the city - all 15 liters.
4. Semyon. Khabarovsk. I have a business in the region, so I often have to travel long distances, and, unfortunately, not on the best road surfaces. My machine can handle the load very easily. It has never broken yet. The only negative is that you have to constantly add fuel - it takes about ten for every hundred square meters.
5. Vyacheslav. Norilsk. Kia Sorento 3.3 - for our region, just a wonderful car, especially if you buy it right away full stuffing– I drive for pleasure in any conditions. True, in cold weather I have to spend extra money on fuel - I get an average of 15-17 liters. But they say that this is not the limit for this model.

The result is that the 3.3-liter power unit, although it has excellent performance qualities, is characterized by excessive gluttony.

Engine volume – 3.5 liters

The most powerful (276 horsepower) power unit for the Kia Sorento. Transmission – automatic transmission. The official norm for the city is 9.4 liters, for the highway – 6.0 liters.

The actual consumption figures for this option are as follows:

1. Denis. Krasnoyarsk My boss has one like this. Sometimes he lets me go for a drive - go to a gas station, start something somewhere, and so on. Of course, the car is a beast, but it also has a very serious appetite - it easily consumes up to 20 liters per hundred square meters.
2. Wife. Peter. I've been dreaming about this car for a long time. I bought it and at first I was happy – everything was great: dynamics, power, equipment, comfort. I went down to the ground at the first gas station - its fuel consumption was much higher than stated - on average in the city, up to 17 liters of fuel flies away.
3. Yakov. Izhevsk I don’t know about others, but my baby’s fuel consumption is normal. Maybe because right after the purchase I sent it to my friends at the service station, where they set it up correctly. The result is only 11 liters in the city, a stable nine on the highway!
4. Sergey. Moscow. I bought the most complete version - owner status large company obliges. What’s most interesting is that with such a volume, the engine consumes very little - I rarely get more than 12 liters in the city, and a ridiculous 8-9 outside of it.
5. Peter. Kostroma. When I came to the salon, they started telling me that it was very economical car. At first I didn’t believe it, because I read enough reviews from other people. In the end, we were persuaded to take it for a test drive. I rode it for a couple of days and took measurements. Indeed, in urban conditions it’s only 11 liters! Not bad – I’ll definitely take this option!

Regarding the 3.5-liter engine, the reviews were mixed. For some people, everything is fine with their fuel consumption standards, while others experience serious overconsumption. Therefore, before you take ownership of a Kia Sorento in any of the equipment options, you should think again and, if possible, it is recommended that you initially take the car for testing.

Kia Sorento is a very popular car in many countries. It is valued not only for its comfort and excellent handling, but also for its daring and defiant appearance. Production started in 2002, and in 2009 the second generation appeared. The restyling carried out in 2013 brought new power units, which have become even more powerful and economical. Handling and safety systems have also been improved. The exterior of the car has received some changes. For example, anyone can now install 19-inch alloy wheels.

Specifications KIA Sorento: all the actions taken during the restyling were reflected in the dimensions, which increased slightly: width - 4685 mm, width - 1885 mm, height - 1710 mm, wheelbase - 2700 mm, ground clearance - 185 mm. The weight has also increased - 1810 kg.

The choice of engines is extensive: 2.4- and 3.5-liter gasoline with 175 and 277 hp. respectively, a 2.2-liter diesel engine with 197 hp, a 2.7-liter gasoline unit working in conjunction with a gas unit (165 hp) and a 1.6-liter hybrid engine with 163 hp.

The choice of transmissions is fairly standard: 5- and 6-speed automatic or manual gearboxes.

KIA Sorento consumption analytics. We analyzed the data of more than 50 drivers, each of whom took advantage of logbook presented on our website. Most people choose the version with a 2.4-liter gasoline engine, since its consumption is closer to the declared amount.

The minimum amount of gasoline consumed per 100 km is 7.3 liters on the highway. The maximum consumption was 15.3 liters in urban conditions.

The average level of gasoline consumption ranges from 8.2 to 10.9 liters per 100 km.

The diesel engine is inferior in popularity to the gasoline engine, however, it also has its buyers. The minimum consumption on the highway is fixed at 6 liters, with the declared amount being 5.9. As for the maximum “appetite”, the figure is much higher than stated - 17.7 liters. As a rule, such consumption is caused by an aggressive driving style in urban conditions with climate control turned on.

Options and KIA prices Sorento. The third generation at one time received dramatic improvements aimed at increasing the comfort and attractiveness of the car. The standard equipment of the model included elements with faux leather trim, a rear armrest, an additional brake light, a full-size spare tire, a chrome radiator grille, an electric drive for folding the rear row of seats, ESC, HAC, ABS, VSM and ESS systems.

Kia Sorento gas mileage. KIA Sorento consumes quite a lot of gasoline. In order to drive the version with a 2.4-liter engine 100 km within the city, you will need at least 11.3 liters. For the 3.5-liter version, this figure is much higher - 16.6 liters. Driving on the highway will require slightly less: 7.0 and 9.7 liters, respectively.

The good news is that the actual consumption in most cases did not go far from the declared one. However, in the case of an aggressive driving style, you need to be more careful, since in this case the consumption can be more than 18 liters.

For the first time, the Kia Sorento crossover from the Korean company Kia Motors was shown to the public at the Chicago Auto Show in early 2002. Since its release, the model has already been modified several times: restyling in 2006, the release of the 2nd generation in 2009 and subsequent update in 2012, the release of the 3rd generation since 2014. Starting from the 2nd generation, the crossover is built on the platform of the Hyundai Santa Fe, its main competitor in the market. From the very beginning, the Sorento was equipped with both petrol (2.4, 3.3, 3.5, 3.8 liters) and diesel (2.0, 2.2, 2.5 liters) power plants.

Kia Sorento I

The first generation frame SUV was produced from 2002 to 2009. Buyers had a choice of cars with 3 engines: 2 petrol – 2.4 MT (139 hp), 3.5 AT (195 hp) and 1 diesel – 2.5d AT+MT (140 hp). 2006 was marked by the first restyling, after which the engine power changed somewhat. Gasoline - 3.3 AT (238 and 248 hp) and 3.8 AT (262 hp), diesel 2.5 AT+MT (170 hp). For cars with petrol engines average consumption fluctuates within 10.8 l/100 km, and on diesel versions - 7.9-8.6 l/100 km.

Real fuel consumption

• Evgeniy, Tomsk. Kia Sorento 2006 I bought a used one with 17,500 km mileage. 3.5-liter engine with a power of 195 horses. Initially I wanted a full-fledged SUV on a frame, with lowering, locking and other off-road “goodies”, which, in fact, is what I eventually got. A rather large engine with automatic transmission consumes an average of 14 liters of gasoline. Of these, 17 liters in the city and about 11 on the highway.
• Kirill, Irkutsk. Kia Sorento, diesel 2500, automatic transmission, 170. I bought it not new diesel Kia Sorento in good condition. I'm happy with the car, although at first there were problems with it (mainly with the transfer case and the turbine), but, I must say, I don't drive very carefully. When the car is in good working order, consumption on the highway is no higher than 7.2 liters, and in the city - 12. The mixed cycle takes about 8.7 liters of fuel. Engine 2.5d AT, built in 2006.
• Dmitry, Perm. I purchased my Sorento after its first restyling in 2007. I settled on a 3.3 AT petrol engine with a power of 248 hp. Fuel consumption is 15-20 liters in the city and 9-12 on the highway. Average consumption is up to 14 liters. I bought the car used from a dealer (1200 km). Like many of these cars, there were issues with all-wheel drive and transfer case. Well, basically – a good crossover with a hint of an SUV.
• Evgeny, Barnaul. When buying an SUV, I wanted a relatively powerful engine with a moderate love of fuel. My choice is a 2004 Kia ​​Sorento I with a 2.5-liter diesel engine (145 hp) manually. Among the shortcomings, I can only note cheap plastic and not very spacious salon. There were also some problems with the all-wheel drive. The fuel consumption is quite high for a diesel engine: highway-city-average - 8-12-10 liters.
• Nikolay, Vladivostok. In 2002, after the wedding, we decided to please ourselves - we bought a Sorrento I with a 2.5d AT diesel engine with 140 hp. The car had no mileage in Russia - Korean assembly. It is equally good in the city (consumption 10-12 liters), on the highway (consumption 8-9 liters), and off-road. Average fuel consumption is 9-10 liters, depending on operating conditions.
• Ivan, Khanty-Mansiysk. We rented the car from the dealership for trips out of town. Kia Sorento 2006, 2.4 liters (139 hp), gasoline, manual transmission. At first, the car was not used at all in winter. I think this is my find. During the first 75,000 km there was only one breakdown - the engine speed sensor. In summer, consumption was 11.3 liters in the combined cycle (15-16 liters in the city, 9-9.6 on the highway).
• Victor, Moscow. I traded my old car for a 2007 Kia Sorento. I wanted to buy a large jeep, but I couldn’t find any inexpensive ones. I spent a long time choosing it until I settled on it - I was confused by the reviews about the high consumption and poor cross-country ability. Engine characteristics - gasoline, 3.3 AT, 245 hp. Consumption: 15-17 liters in the city, 9-11 on the highway and around 12 - combined cycle.

Kia Sorento II

Second Kia generation The Sorento was unveiled at the 2009 Seoul Auto Show. In the same year, the model went on sale in Russia. This car was equipped with 2.0 and 2.2 liter diesel units(184 and 197 hp), as well as gasoline power plants with a volume of 2.4, 3.3 and 3.5 liters (175, 300 and 276 hp). Average fuel consumption for diesel variations ranges from 5.9 to 7.4 liters. The same characteristics for gasoline engines are about 8.5-11.8 liters per 100 km. In 2013, the 2nd generation was restyled, as a result of which the engines were modernized, and the crossover itself received better handling and a new monocoque body.

Fuel consumption rate per 100 km

• Sergey, Orenburg. Since a house appeared outside the city, I decided to buy a car with decent clearance and all-wheel drive. Another wish was that it should be quite comfortable – I spend a lot of time driving. The choice is the restyled 2013 Kia Sorento II with a 2.2 liter diesel engine (197 horsepower). I chose diesel because of its advantage in consumption - 11 liters in the city and 8 on the highway, 9.5 liters is the average consumption.
• Alexander, Ufa. Updated Kia Sorento II with a 2.4 MT engine (175 l.m.). This is my first experience of owning a crossover. Among the advantages I will note good maneuverability— never got stuck in winter, even when there was a lot of snow. At first, the expense was puzzling. In winter in the city 18 liters. In the summer it dropped to 13 liters. I didn’t measure it on the highway in winter, but in summer it’s about 8. Average gasoline consumption is 10.5 liters. Build 2013.
• Alexey, Perm. The choice of Sorento was determined by the budget and the desire to get a spacious car, namely a crossover. I bought a car from Korea, produced in 2013. As it turned out, the quality of the materials is better than ours. Diesel engine with a volume of 2.0 liters (184 hp) with manual transmission. At first I was only upset front wheel drive, but then decided that the full one was not needed. Consumption with such an engine is on average 6.3-7.0 liters per hundred: 7.5-8 liters in the city and 5-6 on the highway.
• Andrey, Moscow. Kia Sorento 2nd generation (2014, restyled). My dad and I bought an SUV and didn’t understand why we chose an automatic transmission. I was captivated by the powerful 3.5-liter engine with 275 horsepower. My father uses the car more often; he wanted a higher one. I really like the dynamics. Of the minuses, the computer did not show less than 10 liters on the highway, and a maximum of 18 liters in the city. So the average consumption is 14 liters, which in no way corresponds to the declared 7 liters. Maybe it will be better after the run-in.
• Eric, Orenburg. For our own Kia sizes The Sorento is very fast. Quite good handling, very well quieted. I fill up with 95-grade gasoline, and the consumption of the unit on a 3.5-liter monster in the city reaches 16, outside the city - a solid 10. It is not clear to me what the third row of seats is for - there is very little space for passengers there. Average consumption 13 liters. Model 2011, engine 277 hp.
• Vladimir, Barabinsk. I received a clean, pre-restyling 2010 Kia Sorento II. Petrol version 2.4 liters, 175 hp, automatic transmission. This is my first car from the showroom. Very comfortable, a lot has been done for the comfort of the driver and passengers. A big plus in comparison with similar Europeans or Japanese is the price. The average gasoline consumption in the city is 12 liters, and in suburban mode up to 8-8.5, depending on the speed.
• Vasily, St. Petersburg. I’ve wanted a diesel car for a very long time, I even went to the showroom to test the Sorenta 2.5d. I tested it, it caught fire, I ran for the money, but the line for diesel ones turned out to be very long. I had to take 2.4 MT gasoline (built in 2010). And this car “ruins” me every hundred kilometers in the city by 13 liters, and on the highway - 7-7.4. True, I like to drown, so the average fuel consumption is 10 liters.

Kia Sorento III

The third generation Kia Sorento was launched in 2014. A distinctive feature of the generation is more powerful diesel engines. The manufacturer, maintaining the volume of 2.0 and 2.2 liters, increased the power to 186 and 200 hp. With gasoline units the picture is slightly different. The 2400 cc engine has become more powerful from 175 to 188 hp. But the 3.5-liter engine lost both in volume (from 3.5 to 3.3) and in power (from 275 to 250 hp). The mixed consumption for diesel engines is indicated by the automaker within 7.8 l/100 km, and for gasoline engines – 8 l. and 10.5 liters.

Gasoline consumption per 100 km. reviews

• Vitaly, Sevastopol. I have long wanted to buy a SUV that would be spacious enough for a driver under 2 meters tall. I think the Kia Sorento III was perfect for me. I bought it in the showroom, 2014. diesel (due to consumption I chose: highway - 8.5 liters, city - up to 12). Engine 2.2d AT 200 hp. For maximum configuration quoted a very reasonable price.
• Artem, Rostov-on-Don. All-wheel drive Kia The 3rd generation Sorento was shipped from Korea for me. The criteria for choosing a car were four-wheel drive, diesel engine, 7 seats and a more or less decent interior. So, briefly about those. characteristics: 2.0d engine, power 186 hp, average mixed consumption in city/highway mode - 10 liters (9 liters on the highway and no more than 11 in Rostov), ​​but this is still the break-in period. Model year: 2015.
• Alexey, Kemerovo. There were no special reasons to buy the Kia Sorento. I just immediately liked this car because of its large interior. With my 130 kg weight, this is very important. My Kia is on gasoline engine 2.4 AT. I use 92nd gasoline and it takes 12.7 liters per hundred in the city, about 8 liters on the highway, and 10 liters in the combined cycle. Build 2015, took a new one.
• Evgeniy, Ekaterinburg. Kia Sorento III, diesel engine 2.2 liters (197 hp) automatic. Frankly speaking, my impressions of the car are average. I didn’t like the harsh suspension and the quality of the rubber on the wipers. Consumption in the city is 12 liters, outside the city - 8. The 50/50 mode takes about 10 liters per 100 km. A friend in the city has 10 liters, and on the highway around 7.3 liters. I hope that after the run-in I will reach the same numbers.
• Tatyana, Moscow. Petrol Kia Sorento with gasoline engine 3.3 AT 250 hp (2014 release). Very comfortable salon, the dynamics are at their best. I like the build quality and reliability. Consumption at 3.3 liters did not seem very high. The Koreans began to produce good cars. On average - 11 liters. In the city it’s about 15.4 liters, and on the highway an average of 8.6 liters.
• Alexander, Nizhny Novgorod. Kia Sorento 3rd generation, 2.4 AT. After owning many cars, I came to the conclusion that the main thing for me is the suspension, which works great on the Sorento crossover, as well as the size of the interior and trunk. I chose Sorento. Its consumption in the city is 16 liters, while on the highway it takes up to 8.3 liters. If you calculate the average, it comes out to about 12 liters, but they promise that it will be liters less. Year of purchase: 2015.
• Anatoly, Moscow. I bought a truly versatile car. Both for the city and for a picnic. With my family (wife and three children), we need exactly the model - that’s how we got the SUV from Kia. We decided not to save money and bought new model 2015. Diesel engine 2.2d with a power of 200 hp. Consumption is more or less economical: 9-12 liters in the city (depending on road congestion), on the highway 6.3 liters per 100 km/h and 7.6 at 130 km/h. If you drive at 80 km/h, you can get by in 5.8 liters.

Sorento I

2.4 manual transmission petrol

• High fuel consumption. In city mode 14 - 16 liters. On the highway at a speed of 120 km/h it burns 12 liters, at 90 - 110 km/h the consumption is about 11 liters. It eats especially a lot in severe frosts - 20 liters!!!

• I especially don't like it high consumption in the city - up to 20 liters. I understand that this is a price to pay for the power of the engine and the dynamics of the locomotive, but it’s still unpleasant!

• Consumption in the city is super - no more than 12 liters. I haven't measured it on the highway yet.
• Excellent diesel fuel consumption - up to 10 liters per hundred km, compared to the Ford Focus - burns 25 - 30 percent less.
• On the highway, consumption is 10 liters, in the city 12-15 liters.
• The efficiency is very pleasant - in the city it takes 11.5 liters of diesel fuel.
• Fuel consumption is more than modest; with a mixed cycle, solariums consume 10 liters per 100 km.
• Judge for yourself - 9.5 - 12 liters per hundred. Very nice!
• I couldn’t figure it out right away - where was the promised 8.6 liters according to the passport? I consistently consume about 12 liters on average. As it turned out, everything is simple! I have to travel to Riga often. On Latvian roads, speed is limited to 90 km/h, violations are very expensive. In such conditions, it takes about 8 liters per hundred consistently. Great, you weren’t deceived!
• The diesel fuel consumption is pleasantly surprising, the speed is 115 - 120 km/h, on the tachometer up to 2500 rpm it turns out to be 9.6 liters per hundred.
• Fuel consumption is very good for such a car - 12-15 liters in the city.
• As for me, the consumption is somewhat high - in the city up to 14 liters, on the highway about 10 per 100 km.
• At first, the fuel consumption was very disappointing; in the city, instead of the stated 12 liters, they burned about 15. However, after 5000 runs it seems to be improving - in city traffic jams and with the climate, a little more than 11 liters. On the highway at a speed of 120 - 150 km/h it produces 11.8 liters.

• Quite modest fuel consumption: outside the city no more than 10 liters per 100 km.
• I liked the efficiency of the engine - 12 liters on the highway, 16 liters in the city.

• Firstly, I’m glad that the engine accepts 92nd, and secondly, I’m pleased with the gas mileage. In the summer in the city it consumes 10.5 liters, in the winter 13 and a half, on the highway at a speed of about 100 km/h only 8.5 liters. Super! I thought the cost would be higher.
• Of course, I understood that the declared consumption was bullshit; in practice it would be more, but not by the same amount!!! I'm shocked! In reality, it consumes 20 liters in the city, I checked it personally several times!

• For a rather large crossover, the consumption is simply excellent! Dynamic driving around the city costs 10.4 liters per 100 km. Super!
• Sorik, of course, is not famous for its low consumption, but in fairness it should be noted that it is positive - on the highway, if you don’t press the pedal, you can achieve 8.5 liters per hundred.
