Just yesterday I had a text about the new Ford Mondeo 5 generation. This car will have a set with a motor of 1 liter. Experienced motorists will understand why I focus on this example: a car weighing 2,000 kilograms is equipped with such a small engine (it is also a three -cylinder!). But this is a car that is obliged to match. And now the British Jaguar is also talking about the economy of fuel.
Actually, the issues of savings are relevant. If a person wants to continue to live on planet Earth, he needs to consume as little as possible and take care of saving as much as possible. T. e. technology, and in the world of cars, too, should be aimed at constant improvement of all units, including production. So the global understanding of the thoughts of developers from Jaguar can. But in the perspective of an ordinary person, it is not easy to understand ..
It’s about a car named Jaguar XE. Today it is a concept that is about to come to life in a serial version. His fellow XF stands today in the region of 2,000,000 rubles. Not the cheapest car in the market, isn’t it? And in this price range it is supposed to save on fuel! According to Jaguar, diesel fuel consumption of this machine will be 3.7 liters per 100 km. run.
The figures are indicated about the ridiculous situation of financial benefits. Who has 2 million RA cars, the drum of his fuel consumption. Probably there is nothing to discuss here, because it is funny. Rather, we need to talk about the environmental friendliness of this car, its compliance with the Euro-6 standard. And the power here is very nothing: with a volume of 2 liters, 163 and 180 horses are obtained. So the jaguar motorists can safely pass the medal for the ability to modify engines to such parameters.
What this motor will show on our diesel fuel is difficult to assume. It is only clear that in the outback you will need to think about where to refuel – I have a suspicion that this car will not go on the diesel fuel. After all, such parameters indicate the presence of sensors, which are always extremely sensitive to fuel quality.
For those who are tormented by such doubts, a car based on a gasoline motor will also be produced: again 2 liters of volume, but from 200 and 240 horses. For extreme ones (which are much more suitable for the Jaguar brand for all indicators, especially in price) will make a 340-horsepower motor. This option will be able to gain a hundred in 5.1 seconds.
