Are China VI vehicles more fuel-efficient than China V vehicles?
2 Answers
Here is a comparison of fuel consumption between China VI standard vehicles and China V vehicles: 1. Actually, the fuel consumption is slightly higher. Given the actual situation in China, it is highly likely that China VI vehicles with the same displacement and model as China V vehicles will consume more fuel. 2. Theoretically more fuel-efficient. From a theoretical perspective, higher emission levels imply more advanced engine technology. The application of new technologies such as turbocharging, direct injection, variable valve timing, smaller displacement with higher compression ratios, and Atkinson cycle can make fuel burn more completely and improve combustion efficiency. In theory, this should lead to better fuel efficiency, but this is only theoretical.
