What is the actual fuel consumption of the Haval F7X 4WD version?
2 Answers
Haval F7X 4WD version has a combined fuel consumption of 6.9L/100km. The above is the NEDC combined fuel consumption, which is the comprehensive fuel consumption data measured under the NEDC test procedure. The actual fuel consumption is higher than this value, around 8.5L. The level of car fuel consumption is directly related to five major factors, namely driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. The specific factors that will increase car fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Rough driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not releasing the throttle in advance when encountering a red light, will increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger displacement consume more fuel than those with smaller displacement because larger displacement generally means greater power, requiring more gasoline to burn and perform work. Cars with greater self-weight will have higher fuel consumption because greater self-weight requires larger driving torque. Road conditions: Dirt roads, muddy roads, soft roads, mountain roads, etc. Driving on these roads with greater resistance will increase fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases car resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperature: When the engine block temperature is low, the gasoline injected during cold starts is not easy to atomize, requiring more gasoline to be injected for combustion, thus increasing fuel consumption. At the same time, low temperature will cause the engine computer to control the engine to warm up at higher RPM, which will also increase fuel consumption.
I am the owner of a Haval F7X 4WD version, and I usually drive it for daily commuting in the city, with fuel consumption generally ranging from 10 to 12 liters per 100 kilometers. When encountering heavy traffic or frequent stops at traffic lights, it easily exceeds 12 liters; on highways, it can drop to around 8 liters, which is quite reassuring. I think the 4WD system adds significant weight to the car, and since I sometimes step on the gas pedal hard when in a hurry, the fuel consumption gets even higher. I recommend driving in eco mode, using the air conditioning less, and regularly checking tire pressure to keep fuel consumption stable at around 9 liters. Also, fuel quality makes a big difference—higher-grade fuel makes the ride smoother. Don’t underestimate the impact of load; a full car climbing hills can push fuel consumption up to 13 liters, but overall, it’s decent for long-distance driving. Keep up with maintenance, and the fuel consumption won’t fluctuate much.
