Emgrand GL 1.4T's fuel consumption is not considered high. Below is the relevant information: Introduction: Geely Emgrand (abbreviated as Emgrand) is a sub-brand under the parent brand of Geely, equipped with the GeTec-DVVT turbocharged engine, featuring front-wheel drive and a maximum power of 98kw, with turbo intervention at 1800 rpm.

I've been driving the Emgrand GL 1.4T for a while now, and the fuel consumption feels average. In city traffic, the fuel consumption is slightly higher, reaching about 8L per 100km, but on the highway, it can drop to around 6L, which is quite reasonable. Compared to my friend's Hyundai sedan, the fuel consumption is similar, but the Emgrand has a bit more power. During daily driving, I've found that maintaining smooth driving and avoiding sudden acceleration can help reduce fuel consumption, and regular oil changes also contribute. If the road conditions are good, such as driving in the suburbs, the fuel consumption stabilizes at 7L. Overall, it's not high and is typical for a family car, plus maintenance is affordable.
