Does travelling speed affect fuel consumption?

Correct answer

Yes, the higher the speed, the greater the consumption.

As we increase the travelling speed of our moped, we have to accelerate the vehicle more, so the engine has to work harder and this leads to greater fuel consumption. The relationship between speed and fuel consumption is also due to the vehicle's aerodynamic resistance.
