How is the fuel consumption of the 4th generation Emgrand?
1 Answers
After two rounds of comprehensive testing covering over 200 kilometers each in various road conditions including city streets, ring roads, and highways, the actual measured fuel consumption of the 4th generation Emgrand is around 6.8 liters per 100 kilometers. Compared to the officially announced fuel consumption level of 6.5 liters per 100 kilometers, the actual measured 6.8 liters is still a good performance. The factors affecting fuel consumption are as follows: Rough roads consume more fuel: Traffic congestion or uneven road surfaces force the vehicle to drive in low gear for extended periods, inevitably increasing fuel consumption; Using the trunk as storage increases fuel consumption: Treating the trunk as a warehouse and stuffing it with all sorts of items, useful or not, increases the vehicle's weight. It's important to note that vehicle weight is directly proportional to fuel consumption. A 10% reduction in vehicle weight can lead to a corresponding decrease in fuel consumption by several percentage points. Incorrect driving habits can double or triple fuel consumption: Poor driving habits have the greatest impact on fuel consumption. During driving, especially in heavy traffic, at red lights, or when changing lanes, sudden acceleration and hard braking are the most common issues.
