VAZ OKA in detail about fuel consumption
Content
The Oka car is a domestic small-sized minicar. The release was carried out from 1988 to 2008 at several car factories. Speaking about the model itself, it is worth noting that this is a very economical car. The average fuel consumption of the Oka per 100 km is about 5,6 liters.
Fuel consumption on the VAZ-1111
Over the entire period of production, more than 750 thousand cars were produced. This vase model has become truly popular. The cabin can accommodate 4 people with hand luggage. Trunk capacity for such dimensions is also quite acceptable. In the city, this is a very nimble and sneaky car, while the consumption of gasoline on the Oka made it affordable for families with an average income. The car was relatively inexpensive and was very popular with urban residents.

Fuel consumption declared by the manufacturer
The technical documentation shows the following average fuel consumption on the VAZ1111 per 100 kilometers:
- on the highway - 5,3 liters;
- urban cycle - 6.5 liters;
- mixed cycle - 6 liters;
- idling - 0.5 liters;
- off-road driving - 7.8 liters.
Actual fuel consumption
The actual fuel consumption of the VAZ1111 on the highway and in the city is somewhat different from the declared one. The first Oka model was equipped with a 0.7-liter engine with a capacity of 28 horsepower. The highest speed that could be developed by car was 110 km / h. It required 6.5 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers when driving in the city and about 5 liters on the highway.
In 1995, a new Oka model entered production. The technical characteristics of the engine have changed, the operating speed has decreased. The power of the new two-cylinder engine was 34 horsepower, and its volume increased to 0.8 liters. The car accelerated to 130 km / h. The average consumption of gasoline on the Oka in the city was 7.3 liters per hundred kilometers and 5 liters when driving on the highway.
In 2001, the developers tried to further improve the power qualities of the popular small car. Launched a new model with a 1 liter engine. The capacity of the unit has been significantly increased. Now it has amounted to 50 horsepower, the maximum speed figures have reached 155 km / h. Gasoline consumption rates for the Oka of the latest model turned out to be left at an economical level:
- in the city - 6.3 liters;
- on the highway - 4.5 liters;
- mixed cycle - 5 liters.
In general, for more than twenty years of the history of the car, a large number of models have been produced. The most significant were some socially-oriented versions of cars, cars for the disabled and people with disabilities. Sports interpretations of the car were also produced. They were equipped with a more powerful engine and a reinforced chassis.
How to reduce fuel consumption
Fuel costs for VAZ OKA per 100 km depend on the type of engine, unit size, transmission type, year of manufacture of the car, mileage and many other factors. For example, in the winter season, the average gasoline consumption on the Oka in the city and when driving outside the city limits will be slightly higher than in the summer with the same vehicle operation modes.
It is important to pay attention to the technical characteristics of the VAZ 1111 OKA, the fuel consumption of which, if unbalanced, can increase significantly.
- The indicator button under the panel can be recessed, there is no indicator signal, and the choke does not open completely.
- Solenoid valve not tight.
- Jets do not fit the size and type of model
- Clogged carburetor.
- Ignition set badly.
- The tires are under-inflated or, conversely, the tires are over-inflated.
- The engine has worn out and needs to be replaced with a new engine or a major overhaul of the old one.
It is also worth remembering that increased fuel consumption by a car may depend on other factors besides the technical condition of the carburetor and the car as a whole.
The aerodynamics of the body, the condition of the tires and road surface, the presence of heavy volumetric cargo in the trunk - all this will affect the fuel consumption figures.
Fuel consumption largely depends on the driver himself and the style of driving. Drivers with long driving experience know that the ride should be smooth, without sudden braking and acceleration.
