What is the fuel consumption of Toyota in KM?

There isn’t a single figure for Toyota’s fuel consumption. It depends on the model and drivetrain. In general, Toyota hybrids clip along at about 20–28 km per liter, while conventional gasoline models in compact cars typically yield around 12–18 km/L, and larger SUVs tend to sit around 8–12 km/L, with real-world results varying by market and testing cycle.


How to read Toyota's fuel consumption numbers


These ranges reflect typical results under common testing cycles and real-world driving. In Europe, WLTP numbers are often used; in the United States, EPA ratings apply. The same model can show different figures depending on trim and configuration. Always check the official window sticker for precise numbers in your region.


Representative ranges by drivetrain provide a quick snapshot of typical performance across Toyota's lineup. Values assume mixed driving in common conditions and can differ by market and test cycle.



  • Hybrid models (Prius, Corolla Hybrid, RAV4 Hybrid, etc.): roughly 20–28 km/L depending on model and driving conditions.

  • Conventional gasoline models (non-hybrid compact sedans and hatchbacks): roughly 12–18 km/L.

  • Large SUVs and trucks with gasoline engines: roughly 8–12 km/L depending on weight, aerodynamics and drivetrain options.


For precise numbers, always consult the official model page or the window sticker for your region, since tests and configurations vary.

How tests translate to real-world figures


Representative figures for widely sold Toyota models (approximate ranges across WLTP/EPA cycles):



  • Prius: about 23–26 km/L in mixed hybrid mode (roughly 4.0–4.5 L/100 km in EPA terms).

  • Corolla Hybrid: about 21–25 km/L.

  • RAV4 Hybrid: about 20–24 km/L.

  • Corolla (gasoline, non-hybrid): about 14–18 km/L.

  • RAV4 (gasoline): about 11–14 km/L.


These ranges are indicative; exact numbers depend on testing standards and regional configuration. Always verify with the local window sticker or Toyota’s official model page for your market.


What influences fuel consumption?


Fuel economy is shaped by many variables beyond the engine. The following factors are among the most influential in determining a vehicle’s km/L:



  • Drivetrain and powertrain: whether the model is hybrid, the engine size, transmission type, and whether it uses two-wheel drive or all-wheel drive.

  • Driving style and conditions: city stop-and-go versus highway cruising, speed, and aggressive acceleration or braking.

  • Load and aerodynamics: number of passengers, cargo weight, roof racks, and overall drag.

  • Maintenance and parts: tire pressure, tire type (rolling-resistance tires help), air filters, engine oil grade, and routine servicing.

  • Climate control and electrical load: use of air conditioning, heating, and other power-demanding features.

  • Terrain and weather: hills, altitude, temperature, and cold-start effects.


In practice, a combination of careful maintenance, light loading, and smooth driving yields the best results, while heavy payloads or extreme driving conditions can significantly reduce km/L.


Summary


Toyota’s fuel consumption in kilometers per liter varies widely by model, drivetrain and conditions. Hybrids typically deliver the best efficiency, while larger gasoline-powered SUVs consume more fuel. For the most accurate figure, check the official Toyota model page or the local window sticker for your region.

What is the average fuel economy of a Toyota?


The Toyota Corolla has an EPA-estimated fuel economy rating of up to 35 mpg combined * while the Toyota Corolla Hybrid has an EPA-estimated fuel economy rating of up to 50 mpg combined.



Which Toyota car has the lowest fuel consumption?


The most fuel-efficient Toyota is the Prius Prime, a plug-in hybrid, with an EPA-estimated 127 MPGe combined rating and an all-electric range of up to 44 miles. If you're considering a traditional hybrid without a plug-in, the standard Toyota Prius is the most efficient with an EPA-estimated 57 MPG city and 56 MPG highway.
