Verified real consumption: In the city, Koleos consumes 9-10 liters LPG/100km (depending on driving style and traffic). On the highway at constant speed 90-110 km/h, consumption drops to 7-8 L/100km.
In practical terms: For a Chisinau-Odesa trip (180 km), you'll consume approximately 14-15 liters of LPG (180-200 MDL). The same trip on petrol would cost 350-400 MDL. Savings: ~50%.
No, this model is front-wheel drive (2WD). Front-wheel drive is sufficient for Moldova's roads, including moderate winter conditions with proper winter tires.
Front-wheel drive advantages: Reduced fuel consumption (1-1.5L/100km less than 4x4), cheaper maintenance, less space occupied by mechanical components = larger trunk.
For off-road or difficult mountain roads, we recommend our 4x4 models: KIA Sportage, BMW X5, Porsche Cayenne.
Detailed calculation for 1000 km (mixed consumption: 50% city, 50% highway):
On LPG: Average consumption 8.5L/100km × 1000km = 85L × 13 MDL/L = 1105 MDL
On petrol: Average consumption 7.5L/100km × 1000km = 75L × 26 MDL/L = 1950 MDL
Total savings: 845 MDL per 1000 km. For a month with 1500 km, you save approximately 1270 MDL.
Yes, the system is bi-fuel (LPG + petrol). The car always starts on petrol (to protect the cold engine), then automatically switches to LPG after 1-2 minutes.
