I've been driving the 2018 Changan CS75 for over two years now. For daily urban commuting, the fuel consumption typically ranges between 9 to 11 liters per 100 kilometers, but can spike above 12 liters during peak traffic congestion. On highways, the fuel efficiency improves significantly, maintaining around 7 to 8 liters. The car is equipped with a 1.5T engine which delivers decent power, though fuel consumption increases by several liters when the air conditioning is on or the car is fully loaded. Several factors affect fuel consumption, with driving habits being the most critical—aggressive acceleration and braking can significantly increase fuel usage. I've managed to save quite a bit on fuel costs by learning to accelerate smoothly. Regular maintenance is also crucial, such as changing the engine oil and checking tire pressure, as neglecting these can lead to a gradual increase in fuel consumption. Overall, for an SUV, these figures are within a reasonable range, and adopting a gentler driving style can further optimize fuel efficiency.
