VW - GOLF I - Average weight: 800kg, 1.8l, 112bhp, average fuel consumption: 10 litres/100km
VW - GOLF 8 - Average weight: 1450kg, 1.0l, 110bhp, average fuel consumption: 4.6l/100km
So the car is nearly twice as heavy and uses less than half as much gas. And there were no optimizations?
- nisa 2y agoMy point is that it could use 2l/100km if that would be the optimization target. Golf 8 is nowadays a few classes above what the Golf 1 was. It's also a rather big car compared to the Golf 1.

There are more things involved than just air drag when it comes to fuel consumption in a car. >Golf 8 is nowadays a few classes above what the Golf 1 was. It's also a rather big car compared to the Golf 1. Exactly. It's way heavier and uses less than half of what the Golf I used back in the day. This to me demonstrates that you don't understand the basics behind all this. Maybe you should read up on stuff.
