There are several reasons for increased fuel
consumption compared with the table's val-
ues. Examples of this are:
•The driver's driving style.
•If the customer has specified wheels larger
than those fitted as standard on the mod-
el's basic version, then resistance increa-
ses.
•High speed results in increased wind resis-
tance.
•Fuel quality, road and traffic conditions,
weather and the condition of the car.
Even a combination of the above-mentioned
examples can result in significantly improved
consumption. For further information, please
refer to the regulations referred to
1.
Large deviations in fuel consumption may arise
in a comparison with the EU driving cycles
1
which are used in the certification of the car
and on which the consumption figures in the
table are based.
To bear in mindTips that the driver can use in order to reduce
consumption:
•Drive gently and avoid unnecessary accel-
eration as well as braking too hard.
•Drive with the correct air pressure in the
tyres and check this regularly - select ECO
tyre pressure for best results, see the tyre
pressure table on page 366.
•Choice of tyres can affect fuel consump-
tion - seek advice on suitable tyres from a
dealer.
See further information and more advice on
pages 12 and 270.
See page 274 for general information on fuel.
1Official fuel consumption figures are based on two standardised driving cycles in a laboratory environment ("EU driving cycles") all in accordance with EU Directive 80/1268/EEC (Euro 4), EU Regulation
no 692/2008 (Euro 5) and UN ECE Regulation no 101. The regulations cover the driving cycles for urban driving and extra-urban driving. - Urban driving - the measurement starts with cold starting
the engine. The driving is simulated. - Extra-urban driving - the car is accelerated and braked at speeds between 0-120 km/h. The driving is simulated. - Cars with the D5 engine and 6-speed manual
transmission or DRIVe engine and 6-speed manual transmission, are started in 2nd gear. The value for combined driving, which is given in the table, according to legislation, is a combination of
urban driving and extra-urban driving. CO
2 emission - to calculate the carbon dioxide emissions from the two driving cycles, the exhaust gases are collected. These are then analysed and give the
value for CO2 emissions.
