I've driven the Emgrand GS 1.4T for several years, and its real-world fuel consumption is quite noteworthy. In city driving with frequent traffic jams and the AC on full blast, the average fuel consumption stays around 8-9L per 100km. On the highway, maintaining a steady speed of 90km/h, it drops to about 5.5-6L. Overall, it averages around 7.5L, which I'm quite satisfied with—slightly higher than the official figures but normal. There are numerous factors affecting fuel consumption: my conservative driving habits, avoiding rapid acceleration from a standstill, and keeping tire pressure at the recommended level all help control fuel usage. If fellow drivers complain about high fuel consumption, I suggest tracking refueling data over a few weeks to calculate the average rather than relying solely on the dashboard display. Overall, this car offers decent fuel economy for daily commuting, but don't forget regular maintenance and oil changes.
