Quite different from the numbers measured by Inmetro tests. According to the institute, with a full tank of ethanol the Fiat model would do 6.4 per liter in the city and 7.2 on the highway. Fueled with gasoline, the Doblò registers marks of 9.2 per liter in urban consumption and 10.3 km/l in highway use. SPIN TECHNICAL DATA Technical data Engine: 1.8, four-cylinder, flex Power: 111 hp at 6,000 rpm Torque: 15.3 kgfm at 5,200 rpm Transmission: Automatic, six-speed, front-wheel drive Suspension: Independent (front) and torsion beam (rear) Brakes: Ventilated discs at the front and drums at the rear Tires: 195/65 R15 Dimensions: 4.36 m (length) / 1.74 m (width) / 1.68 m (height), 2.62 m (wheelbase) Tank: 53 liters Trunk: 553 liters (162 liters with seven seats) Consumption: 11.8 km/l (city) / 13.7 km/l (highway) with gasoline 0 to 100 km/h: 10.6 seconds Max speed: 173 km/h Combine a heavy car with an old engine. The result is that the Chevrolet Spin's consumption is not a positive point. In our test, the Spin finished with 6.4 km/l on ethanol in the city. Below the 7.1 per liter published by Inmetro. According to the institute, it is 8.3 per liter on the highway. With gasoline, Inmetro publishes averages of 10.2 km/l in the city and 11.8 on the highway. It is worth mentioning that each one can still serve a specific audience. For people with disabilities or mobility difficulties, the Doblò is more advantageous. Both because of the sliding doors, which facilitate access, and because a wheelchair user can access the vehicle through the rear doors without having to get out of the chair. But if you need a car with 7 seats and have no other concerns, there is no doubt that the Spin fulfills the task well. If you enjoyed learning more about these two 7-seater cars, then leave a like.
