Is the Wuling Xingchen fuel consumption high?
2 Answers
Wuling Xingchen's fuel consumption is not high, with an average measured fuel consumption of around 8.5L per 100 kilometers. Here are specific methods to reduce fuel consumption: Lightly press the accelerator: When the car starts at low speed, it is the peak area of fuel consumption. Therefore, lightly pressing the accelerator when starting can prevent excessively high RPM and effectively reduce fuel consumption. Avoid high RPM: Avoid unnecessary high RPM as much as possible. Fluctuating engine RPM will also significantly consume fuel. Regular maintenance: Change the engine oil and remove carbon deposits. Avoid emergency braking: Anticipating road conditions in advance not only improves driving safety but also saves fuel, such as slowing down gradually before traffic lights and utilizing inertia to coast.
I've been using the Wuling Xing Chen for almost two years now, and for my daily commute in the city, the fuel consumption is around 7-8 liters per 100 kilometers, which isn't too high. My work mainly involves moving around the city center, where I often encounter traffic jams. In such situations, the consumption occasionally goes up to 9 liters, but as long as I don't use the air conditioning or avoid sudden acceleration, it usually stabilizes at just over 7 liters. On the highway, the fuel consumption drops to around 6 liters, which is quite a pleasant surprise. As an SUV, this car isn't too heavy, and the engine is tuned for economy, so I think the fuel consumption is quite reasonable. To save some money, I regularly check the tire pressure and keep it around the standard value; I also avoid idling for long periods. These habits help me maintain low fuel consumption. Friends who have used similar models like the Haval H6 have compared and said the Wuling Xing Chen is more fuel-efficient, with lower daily expenses. Overall, fuel consumption largely depends on how you drive. With normal use, it's definitely not fuel-guzzling, making it especially suitable for those on a budget.
