how does car ac work
Talking about the AC of the car, it works only when the engine is started. This is because the belt attached to the compressor of the AC rotates only when the engine starts. In this process, the engine consumes fuel from the tank. When the engine is on, the car AC works like a normal AC. To increase the efficiency of the AC, the car has a recirculation button with various modes.

How much is the effect on the mileage of the car
If you drive the car with the AC on, the mileage drops by 5-6 percent. But it is believed in many reports that keeping the AC on in a moving car does not affect the mileage. If the car is being driven on the highway and the AC is on, then the mileage will not be affected much. But if the windows of the car are open then the mileage may be less.

What will happen if you run AC in a parked car?
According to a research, if the AC is run for 1 hour in a 1000 cc car, then 0.6 liters of petrol will be consumed. On the other hand, if the car is parked then the consumption of petrol doubles. Running AC in a standing car burns 1.2 liters of petrol in 1 hour. Petrol consumption in a normal hatchback car can range from 1 to 1.2 litres.

Apart from this, the condition of the engine of the car, the condition of the car, the setting of the AC and the external weather also depends on how much fuel will be consumed when the AC is running.
