What is the actual fuel consumption of the BAIC 212?
1 Answers
The comprehensive fuel consumption of the BAIC 212 is 7.5-8.4L/100km. Currently, there are 8 models of the BAIC 212 on sale, including the 2.4T Triangle Door Centennial Tribute Edition, 1.5T Triangle Door Centennial Tribute Edition, Three-door Canvas Top, Square-door Canvas Top, Square-door Hard Top, and Three-door Hard Top, with a comprehensive fuel consumption of 7.8L/100km. The Triangle Door version has a comprehensive fuel consumption of 7.5L/100km. The 2.4T Square-door Hard Top has a comprehensive fuel consumption of 8.4L/100km. The above figures are NEDC comprehensive 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 9-11L/100km. Specific factors affecting car fuel consumption are as follows: Car weight: Larger and heavier cars tend to consume more fuel. Generally, a small family car with a 1.6L engine and a weight of about 1.2 tons has a fuel consumption of approximately 7.5 liters (calculated under full load conditions), while an SUV model weighing about 1.5 tons has a fuel consumption of around 8.5 liters. Different weights lead to varying fuel consumption levels. Wind resistance: Higher wind resistance increases fuel consumption during driving. Cars with better aerodynamics have lower wind resistance, resulting in lower fuel consumption. Economical RPM: During driving, the engine has a most economical torque output point. Maintaining the car's speed within this torque output point significantly reduces fuel consumption. Generally, small-displacement cars achieve this at about 70 km/h, while larger-displacement cars reach it at around 100 km/h. Keeping within this economical RPM range ensures minimal fuel consumption. Driving style: Aggressive driving behaviors such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before stopping at traffic lights can increase fuel consumption.
