The Trumpchi GS3 consumes 59ml of fuel per kilometer. Taking the 2021 Trumpchi GS3 as an example, it is a compact SUV with body dimensions of: length 4350mm, width 1825mm, height 1685mm, wheelbase 2560mm, and curb weight 1347kg. The 2021 Trumpchi GS3 features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine delivering maximum horsepower of 163PS, maximum torque of 235Nm, and maximum power of 120kW, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission.

I've been driving the GAC GS3 for a while now, and the fuel consumption is quite stable, averaging about 7 liters per 100 kilometers, which translates to roughly 7 cents per kilometer (based on a fuel price of 7 yuan). It's higher in city traffic, reaching 9 liters or more, while on the highway it drops to around 6 liters. Driving habits make a big difference—things like aggressive acceleration and sudden braking increase fuel consumption. I prefer smooth driving, starting slowly and using cruise control on highways, which helps save a lot. Regular maintenance is also crucial; a dirty air filter or underinflated tires can increase fuel usage, so I check them every three months. Colder temperatures also lead to slightly higher fuel consumption, costing more in winter than in summer. Overall, the car's fuel efficiency is decent—not exceptionally economical but not excessive either. If you drive 50 kilometers daily, monthly fuel costs are around 500 yuan, making it suitable for average households. Using the auto start-stop feature can save fuel, especially when waiting at traffic lights.

The actual fuel consumption of the Trumpchi GS3 depends on driving habits, typically ranging from 6.5 to 8 liters per 100 kilometers, which translates to approximately 0.065 to 0.08 liters per kilometer. I've noticed that smooth acceleration and less frequent braking can reduce fuel usage, with city driving often consuming 20% more than highway driving. Vehicle maintenance is crucial—proper tire pressure is essential, as underinflation increases resistance; excessive engine carbon buildup also raises fuel consumption, and regular throttle body cleaning proves effective. I personally tested this car for a friend, averaging 7.2 liters per 100 kilometers—not the most fuel-efficient, but with good control, it can be reduced to 6.5. Road conditions play a key role too; fuel consumption spikes quickly in congested areas, so choosing smoother routes for commuting can save significantly. I recommend keeping monthly fuel consumption records to identify patterns and better adjust driving habits.

The fuel consumption of the GAC GS3 I'm concerned about is decent in terms of economy, averaging about 7 liters per 100 kilometers, which translates to approximately 7 cents per kilometer. In city traffic with frequent congestion, the fuel consumption can rise to 9 liters, while on highways, it drops to around 6 liters. Simple fuel-saving methods include gently pressing the accelerator when starting and braking less; using cruise control on highways saves a lot. Regularly changing the engine oil and checking tire pressure to ensure proper inflation helps avoid unnecessary fuel consumption. Avoiding overloading or excessive use of air conditioning can also reduce fuel consumption.

The GAC GS3 typically consumes between 6.5 to 8 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers, approximately 0.065 to 0.08 liters per kilometer. Urban driving may increase consumption to 9 liters, while highway driving can reduce it to 6 liters. During long-distance trips, I've tested various road conditions and found that rural roads consume slightly more fuel than highways. Maintaining good vehicle condition, such as cleaning the air filter, can optimize fuel consumption. Smooth driving habits significantly help, like shifting gears early or using the air conditioner less to save fuel. Weather also has a notable impact; cold weather slows engine warm-up, increasing fuel consumption.
