Is the Geely Xingyue L Fuel Consumption High?

[AlexandraRose]

The combined fuel consumption of the Geely Xingyue L is 6.8-7.8L/100km. Currently, there are 7 models of the Geely Xingyue L available for sale: the two-wheel-drive luxury model, two-wheel-drive flagship model, two-wheel-drive premium model, two-wheel-drive comfort model, and two-wheel-drive intelligent premium model, all with a combined fuel consumption of 6.8L/100km. The high-power automatic four-wheel-drive flagship model and high-power automatic four-wheel-drive premium model have a combined fuel consumption of 7.8L/100km. The above figures are the NEDC combined fuel consumption, which is the fuel consumption data measured under the NEDC test procedure. The actual fuel consumption is higher than this value, ranging from 9.49-10.83L/100km. When driving, the following 5 tips can help reduce fuel consumption: During the starting process, the vehicle should start in a low gear, gently press the accelerator, and gradually increase speed. Avoid suddenly pressing the accelerator hard, as this will multiply fuel consumption. Light acceleration, light braking, and early braking: When driving, gently press the accelerator to avoid a sudden increase in engine speed and prevent the car from shaking during driving, making the car more fuel-efficient. By anticipating road conditions and accelerating or braking slowly and evenly, fuel economy can be increased by up to 20%. Maintain proper tire pressure: Keep the tire pressure at the level recommended by the manufacturer. For every 2 PSI below the recommended value (equivalent to about 0.2 in metric units relative to the standard pressure of 2.4), fuel consumption increases by 1%. Regular maintenance or inspection of the vehicle: Timely oil changes can reduce carbon deposits (carbon deposits can cause ignition issues, sluggish acceleration, increased fuel consumption, and in severe cases, even cylinder misfires); regularly check and replace the air filter when dirty, clean or replace the fuel injectors, spark plugs, and throttle body as per mileage. Close the windows while driving. Driving with windows open increases wind resistance. The greater the wind resistance, the more resistance the car faces, requiring more power and thus increasing fuel consumption.

As an owner of a Geely Xingyue L, I've been driving it for over a year in daily urban commuting. The fuel consumption can reach 8-9 liters per 100 km in city traffic jams, but drops to around 7 liters when cruising on highways, which feels quite reasonable. My driving habit is gentle acceleration and less braking, which helps control fuel consumption better. If I drive aggressively or carry more weight, the fuel consumption can rise above 10 liters per 100 km. SUVs naturally consume more fuel, but considering the spaciousness and practicality of the Xingyue L, this fuel consumption isn't high—it's even more economical than some older models. Weather also has a significant impact; fuel consumption increases a bit in summer when using air conditioning and during cold starts in winter. Regular maintenance is key, such as checking tire pressure and engine oil condition, which can help save fuel. Overall, I believe the fuel consumption is within the normal range and not particularly high.

As an automotive enthusiast, I personally test drove the Xingyue L and found that its fuel consumption performance mainly depends on the configuration and driving style. Urban driving consumes between 8 to 10 liters per 100 kilometers, while highway driving is more economical at 6 to 8 liters. The car's 1.5T and 2.0T engines provide ample power, but fuel consumption varies based on tire pressure and whether the driving style is smooth. I prefer using the eco mode to avoid sudden acceleration, which has proven to save a significant amount of fuel in real-world tests. Compared to similar SUVs like the Haval H6, its fuel consumption is comparable or even slightly lower. Poor maintenance, such as a dirty air filter, can increase fuel consumption, so timely replacement is recommended. Vehicle weight and aerodynamic drag also affect fuel efficiency. Overall, it's not a high-consumption vehicle, and with proper daily maintenance, the fuel consumption is quite acceptable.

I drive the Xingyue L for long-distance food delivery, often covering hundreds of kilometers on highways. The highway fuel consumption remains stable at around 7 liters per 100 kilometers, which is quite fuel-efficient. For short-distance city deliveries, the fuel consumption rises noticeably to over 9 liters, especially during traffic jams. The large cargo space causes a slight increase in fuel consumption, but it remains manageable overall. Tire maintenance is crucial, as insufficient tire pressure can significantly increase fuel consumption. After long-term use, the fuel consumption isn’t too high—it’s at a moderate level among SUVs. Planning routes wisely can help optimize fuel efficiency.
