What is the actual fuel consumption of the Haval H6?
2 Answers
Among the three models of Haval H6, the H6 Sport version has a combined fuel consumption of 6.6L/100km, which is at a leading level. Meanwhile, both the new Haval H6 and Haval H6 Coupe are equipped with the "Double Top Ten" powertrain combination, consisting of China's Top Ten Engines and the World's Top Ten Transmissions, achieving a combined fuel consumption of 6.8L/100km. Below are more related tips: 1. Avoid prolonged idling or low-speed driving: When waiting for someone by the roadside or temporarily parking, if the vehicle idles in place, the engine is still running, causing a significant increase in fuel consumption per 100 kilometers. Moreover, under such stagnant or low-speed conditions, due to the relatively low engine speed, combustion in the engine cylinders is incomplete, leading to carbon buildup, which further increases fuel consumption. Therefore, avoiding prolonged idling and low-speed driving is crucial for reducing fuel consumption. 2. Avoid excessive vehicle load and a full fuel tank: The more weight the vehicle carries, the higher the fuel consumption during driving. Many owners treat their cars as mobile storage spaces, stuffing them with various items. Over time, the vehicle's load becomes significantly "overweight," resulting in higher fuel consumption compared to owners who keep their cars clean and free of excessive clutter. Additionally, when refueling, it's not necessary to fill the tank completely; adding only half a tank can also reduce the vehicle's weight. 3. Avoid using high-viscosity engine oil: Owners should be aware that under the same environmental conditions, using engine oils with different viscosities will result in different fuel consumption levels. If a higher viscosity oil than recommended in the maintenance manual is used, the vehicle's fuel consumption will also change. 4. Use the accelerator to control speed rather than the brake: When driving, avoid sudden acceleration and hard braking. On open and smooth roads, try to maintain a constant speed, as the vehicle's fuel consumption is lowest at around 80 km/h. In congested traffic, anticipate the distance to the vehicle ahead and lightly press the accelerator, controlling speed through throttle adjustments rather than braking. While braking itself doesn't consume fuel, restarting the vehicle from a complete stop is quite fuel-intensive. Additionally, activating the engine start-stop function on the H6 can help avoid burning unnecessary fuel while waiting at red lights.
I've been driving a Haval H6 for almost two years, mainly using it to pick up and drop off my kids for school. In the city, the average fuel consumption is around 11 liters per 100 kilometers, and it can go up to 12 liters during rush hour traffic jams. On long highway trips, it's more fuel-efficient, averaging about 8.5 liters per 100 kilometers. My driving habits are quite steady, with rarely any sudden acceleration, so the fuel consumption hasn't been too high. SUVs are naturally heavier, but the H6 isn't too much of a gas guzzler; it's even more economical than some of my friends' joint-venture cars. During maintenance, I regularly check the engine oil and filters, and replacing them when dirty helps keep the fuel consumption stable. When I bought the car, the official figure was around 8 liters, but in reality, it's always a bit higher, mainly due to road conditions and air conditioning use. I recommend test-driving a new car to get a feel for the real fuel consumption before buying. With good daily commuting habits, controlling fuel consumption isn't difficult.
