What is the actual fuel consumption of the Haval H7?
2 Answers
The actual fuel consumption of the 2021 2.0T Haval H7 is 7.7L per 100 kilometers. The following are the factors affecting fuel consumption and tips for saving fuel: Factors affecting car fuel consumption: Potholes on the road will increase fuel consumption. Driving for a long time in low gear will inevitably increase fuel consumption. Overloading the luggage compartment will also increase fuel consumption. Incorrect driving can increase fuel consumption by 2 to 3 times. Driving at high speed in low gear will increase fuel consumption. Lack of engine maintenance will increase fuel consumption. Issues with the engine ignition system, such as inaccurate ignition timing, leaking high-voltage wires, or spark plug carbon buildup causing weak ignition, will reduce engine combustion efficiency and increase fuel consumption. Tips for saving fuel: When starting the vehicle, use low gear and gently press the accelerator to gradually increase speed. Avoid suddenly pressing the accelerator hard, as this can multiply fuel consumption. Starting by gently pressing the accelerator can shorten the engine warm-up time and effectively improve fuel utilization, thereby achieving fuel-saving effects.
I've been driving this Haval H7 for over half a year, mainly commuting in the city. The actual fuel consumption is generally between 9 to 11 liters per 100 kilometers, and can spike to over 12 liters when stuck in traffic. On the highway, it's much more fuel-efficient, hovering around 7 to 8 liters. Many factors affect the fuel consumption, such as carrying more cargo, using air conditioning, or insufficient tire pressure in hot weather, all of which can cause the fuel consumption to rise. I recommend checking the tire pressure before each trip and keeping it around 2.3 bar. Regular maintenance at the 4S shop, like changing to fully synthetic engine oil, can reduce engine resistance and save some fuel costs, helping to keep the consumption at a more reasonable level of around 9 liters. After long-term experience, the H7, despite its large size, has moderate fuel consumption that is reasonable and worry-free.
