Does the Changan Eado have high fuel consumption?
2 Answers
Changan Eado does not have high fuel consumption, with a fuel consumption of 6.5 liters per 100 kilometers. Generally, the engine displacement is one of the factors affecting fuel consumption. Typically, the larger the engine displacement, the higher the car's fuel consumption will be. The related introduction to fuel consumption is as follows: Other factors contributing to high fuel consumption: There are many other factors that affect a car's fuel consumption, such as driving habits, road conditions, vehicle load, tire pressure, etc. Additionally, the car's exterior design also affects fuel consumption. The smaller the car's drag coefficient, the lower its fuel consumption. Extended content on fuel consumption: What truly affects a vehicle's fuel consumption is how many strokes the car's engine makes within a specified time and distance. Strokes refer to the engine's RPM. Therefore, only when both displacement and RPM are low will the car's fuel consumption be lower, as these factors are interrelated.
I've been driving a Changan Eado for many years, and I feel the fuel consumption isn't too high, but it depends on how you drive. My car is a 1.6L manual transmission, and the fuel consumption is a bit higher in city traffic, reaching 8-9 liters per 100 kilometers, but on the highway, it drops to 6-7 liters, which is reasonable. Overall, it's slightly more fuel-efficient than some cars in the same class like the Volkswagen Jetta, but it can't compare to Toyota's hybrid fuel-saving models. There are many details that affect fuel consumption, such as low tire pressure increasing tire resistance, and using the air conditioning at full blast also consumes more fuel. I'm used to gently pressing the accelerator and avoiding sudden braking, regularly changing the engine oil and cleaning the air filter, so the fuel consumption has remained stable for five years. I suggest that new car owners keep a small notebook to record fuel expenses for a month to understand their car's habits. Anyway, it's fine for daily commuting, so don't worry too much about the fuel consumption skyrocketing.
