Getting the
most out
of your
XF105
1. Pay attention to
your driving style
Anticipate; avoid unnecessary braking;
drive constantly. 1 start from standstill
to 80 km/h uses 0.75 l diesel.
• When no throttle is given, drive in the
highest gear (low internal resistance).
• Accelerating quickly uses fuel
unnecessarily.
• Release throttle in time, use the
energy and let the mass work for you.
(40 tons of moving vehicle represents
a lot of energy).
• When throttle is released, the fuel
consumption is zero.
• Taking a regular trip during daytime
and in morning traffic: up to 10%
difference in fuel consumption.
• Taking a regular trip in both summer
and winter: up to 11% difference in
fuel consumption.
