Understanding WLTP Consumption
Everything you need to know about the Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP) and how it affects your car buying decision in Greece.
What is WLTP?
WLTP replaced the old NEDC cycle to provide more realistic data. However, it still remains a laboratory test.
Key Factors That Change Real Consumption
- Climate: Greek summers mean heavy A/C use, which can increase consumption by 10-15%.
- Driving Style: Rapid acceleration is the enemy of efficiency.
- Load: A roof box or a full car changes the aerodynamics significantly.
