2 Answers
The fuel consumption of the Changan Oshan X7 Plus is approximately 8L/100km. However, the actual fuel consumption may vary for each individual vehicle. Below are the factors affecting fuel consumption and methods to reduce it: Factors affecting fuel consumption: The driver's driving habits, road conditions, the weight of items placed in the car, whether the air conditioning is on, and whether the vehicle is in the break-in period, among other factors, can all affect the vehicle's fuel consumption. Methods to reduce fuel consumption: Avoid prolonged idling or low-speed driving, avoid overloading the vehicle and keeping the fuel tank full, avoid using high-viscosity engine oil, and try to control speed with the accelerator rather than the brake.
The real fuel consumption of the Changan Oshan X7 Plus. As an experienced driver who has driven many cars, honestly, the official claim of a combined fuel consumption of 7.8L/100km varies in reality. After testing it myself for several months, in city traffic jams, it easily exceeds 10L, while on highways, it drops back to around 8L—quite a difference. With poor driving habits like sudden acceleration and hard braking, the consumption can spike to 11L, and it gets even worse with heavier loads. I think the car's design is decent, and the fuel consumption is reasonable. SUVs naturally consume more fuel than sedans, so just be mindful in daily driving. Remember, to measure real fuel consumption, use an app to track several fuel refills and calculate the average—don't just rely on the dashboard's misleading numbers to avoid regrets. Maintenance is also crucial; regular oil changes and tire pressure checks can save about 0.5L, which adds up to savings in the long run.
