How to deal with the high fuel consumption of the Soueast Lingyue V3?

Low tire pressure will increase the friction between the tires and the ground, leading to greater resistance and higher fuel consumption. The normal tire pressure is around 2.5 bar, which can be appropriately reduced by 0.1 bar in summer. If the tires are severely worn, slipping will frequently occur, which will also increase fuel consumption. In this case, the tires need to be replaced. Poor-quality gasoline will cause more carbon deposits, and excessive carbon deposits will lead to a sharp increase in fuel consumption.
I think there could be several common reasons for high fuel consumption. Aggressive driving habits, such as sudden acceleration or high-speed driving, can burn fuel quickly. There are also many vehicle-related issues: a clogged air filter can restrict airflow leading to higher fuel consumption, and worn-out spark plugs causing poor ignition also increase fuel usage. Insufficient tire pressure increases rolling resistance, while fuel system leaks or abnormal combustion are potential hazards. My car had similar issues before. I tried improving my driving style by maintaining smooth driving and keeping speeds within the economical range. I regularly checked tire pressure to ensure it was within standard range, replaced the air filter, and had the spark plugs inspected and replaced. As a result, fuel consumption did decrease somewhat. If these methods don't work, it's necessary to visit a professional repair shop for a thorough inspection of the engine or fuel system. After all, long-term high fuel consumption not only wastes money but may also damage the engine. I recommend starting with simple maintenance first.
