Emgrand GL has a combined fuel consumption of 5.9L/100km. Below is an introduction about Emgrand cars: Emgrand GL: The letter 'G' in Emgrand GL represents its higher positioning within the 'Emgrand Corps' and also stands for Grand, implying that the Emgrand GL has a spacious interior. The letter 'L' stands for the high quality of the Emgrand GL - Luxury; at the same time, 'L' is also seen as meaning 'Long,' as the Emgrand GL features an ultra-long body and wheelbase. Interior: The Emgrand GL continues with the aviation-inspired wraparound cockpit design and the family-style arched bridge dashboard design. The control panel adopts an integrated layered center console design, which is simple, elegant, and clearly structured. Spacious Comfort: The Emgrand GL has a body length of 4725mm, undisputedly making it the 'longest A-segment car among Chinese brands.' Along with a wheelbase of 2700mm and a leading class width of 1802mm, the Emgrand GL establishes its identity as an 'A+ segment sedan.' Whether it's headroom or rear legroom, the Emgrand GL demonstrates a leading standard in its class.
I've been driving the Emgrand GL for three years, and the real fuel consumption indeed varies from person to person. Mine is the 1.5L automatic model, and during daily city driving with frequent traffic jams, the fuel consumption is around 9L per 100 kilometers. However, on highways, it can drop to about 7L. There are many influencing factors, such as whether your driving habits are aggressive, the level of traffic congestion, whether the air conditioning is on, and whether the tire pressure is appropriate. If maintenance is not up to standard, such as a dirty air filter or excessive engine carbon buildup, the fuel consumption will increase. Generally, the official claimed urban fuel consumption for the Emgrand GL is around 9L, and in my actual measurements, an average of 8-9L is quite common. Fuel-saving methods are actually simple: gentle acceleration, maintaining a steady speed, and regular oil and filter changes can save you a lot on fuel costs. If you're concerned about fuel consumption, I recommend buying an OBD scanner to measure it yourself—over time, it helps you keep a good handle on your car's condition. As for safety, don't speed just to save fuel; maintaining a reasonable distance is the most important thing.
