Correct answer
- Caumenta.goes up.
Fuel consumption increases when you switch on the air conditioning, because it needs extra energy to work. According to the General Traffic Regulations, this relates to the vehicle's fuel consumption and energy efficiency, which are affected by the use of auxiliary systems such as air conditioning. As the load on the engine increases, so does fuel consumption, which means more fuel is used while driving.
