This causes drag, which slows the affected craft and increases its fuel consumption.

这会造，降低了受影响船只速度，增加了其耗油量。

Sounds like a good car! How many miles to the gallon?

听起来这不错！耗油量多少？

There's other cars that we built that are fairly good on the fuel consumption.

我们制作其他耗油量很不错。。

And that's why some behavioral scientists think gallons per mile is a better metric.

这也是一些行为科家所认为每公里耗油量才是更好测量标准。

When you were in university, did you have a gas guzzler or did you drive another type of more fuel-efficient car?

在大期间，你是开那种耗油量大，还是选择了一款更省油型呢？

She was a gas guzzler in the sense she used a lot of fuel.

If you have bad gas mileage, we would say you have a gas guzzler.

如果你燃油效率很低，我们就会说你有一辆耗油量大。

An efficient car is a car that uses less fuel.

一辆高效是指耗油量较少。

Better technology to make cars less gas-guzzling, so using less fuel, which causes less pollution and they need to be smaller too.

运用更高技术使耗油量降低——使用低油耗，能减少对环境污染，同时也需要缩小身。

It drinks, if you will, a lot of gas.

它耗油量很大。

Oh, a gas guzzler is a vehicle that uses up a lot of gas and often more gas than the average vehicle.

哦，“油老虎”指是那种耗油量很大，通常比普通辆更费油。

You have to be rich to run this car as it uses a lot of petrol.

驾驶这辆需要财雄厚，因为它耗油量很大。

Of course, you want to try to buy a vehicle that is more fuel-efficient and try to stay away from gas guzzlers.

当然，你会希望尽量购买燃油效率更高辆，并尽量避免选择那些耗油量大型。

A lot of cars nowadays are very large and use a large amount of gasoline, or " gas" as we call it here.

如今很多都很大， 而且耗油量也很大，我们这里称其为“油” 。

For example, as the electric car becomes more efficient, affordable and eco-friendly, it'll be a more popular choice amongst consumers, while big gas guzzlers will be left on the lot.

例如，随着电动开始变得越来越高效，价格便宜且污染小，它为大多数消费者普遍选择，而不去购买那些耗油量大。

These gas guzzlers churn out 5 percent of the nation's toxic air pollution, and anyone standing near one is inhaling that good stuff straight into their lungs.

这些耗油量大产生了全国 5% 有毒空气污染，任何站在它们附近人都会将这些好东西直接吸入肺部。

When advertising a new car's efficiency, for example, it is more convincing to talk about the number of extra miles per gallon it does, rather than the equivalent percentage fall in fuel consumption.

比如，在宣传新效率时，引用每加仑油多跑英里数要比引用减少耗油量比值要更有说服。

And these jets use a heck of a lot of oil-I mean it takes a ton of oil, a ton of petrol before one of these big jets even takes off.

这些喷气式飞机耗油量很大——我意思是，在一架大型喷气式飞机起飞之前，需要一吨油，一吨油。

So, the most common expression to describe a big car that uses a lot of gas is a " gas guzzler." Interestingly enough, there really isn't a common term for the opposite kind of car.

。 因此，描述耗油量大大型最常见表达方式是“油耗高”有趣是，对于相反类型， 确实没有通用术语。
