Bravo JTD fuel-consumption

[Jan]

Hello!

I'm looking forward to buy a Bravo JTD but I don't know about the fuelconsumption. I will drive a lot (about 50.000 km a year), so it's a big issue for me. What are your experiences?

Thanks in advance

Jan


p.s. great site!

Bravo JTD

I've got my Bravo JTD since August'99 and drove about 110.000km with it without any problems. I'm very happy with the fuel consumption; even with a "sporty" driving style it consumes about 6-7l.

Greetings

thanks!

Thanks for your quick reply, it helped to clear the last doubts about the Bravo JTD. So it's just four more weeks of waiting and then I will be a happy Bravo-driver.

many thanks

Jan

Hello,

I own a JTD for almost a year now, and i can tell you it does spend little quantities of fuel. It can go as low as 4.1 litres and as high as 8 when driving at full speed, which is very very good. When driving in the city my average is 6-something, never went above that. Only problem i had with it was promptly solved. It was something that looked after the fuel mixture - it got damaged somehow and stopped the car from going above 3,000rpm sometimes.

What about the torque?

I've been driving a Bravo JTD since 1999 and I am still quite happy about the performance and the comsumption (+/- 6 l) of the car. But I've got a question about the engine's torque. I had a discussion with a friend this week about the actual torque of the 1.9 JTD engine of the Bravo GT version. Is it really 255 Nm or just a modest 200 Nm? Please let me know, cos I cannot find reliable information about this anywhere. Thanx !

torque jtd

That would be:

200 Nm/2000 revs standard

+/- 250 Nm/2000 revs tuned

thanx

Damn, wished it was 255. Gonna have to live with it. Thanx anyway!

 

[Marc]

not so difficult

would 250 NM be allright for you??
