What is the actual fuel consumption of the Haval H9?
2 Answers
The actual fuel consumption of the Haval H9 is 9.8L-12.3L/100km. Detailed information about fuel consumption is as follows: Factors related to increased car fuel consumption: Low tire pressure or severe tire wear, frequent loading of heavy objects, poor road conditions, frequent braking, frequent starting, idling the throttle, substandard oil quality, severe carbon deposits in the intake and exhaust, fuel lines, injectors, throttle body, malfunctioning catalytic converter, sensor failure, and spark plug issues can all lead to wasted fuel and increased consumption. Methods to reduce fuel consumption: Start slowly, press the accelerator gently, apply gentle acceleration, brake lightly and early, maintain proper tire pressure, regularly organize the trunk, and reduce load weight.
After driving the Haval H9 for over two years, I've found that the real fuel consumption tests one's patience. During daily commutes stuck in city traffic, the fuel consumption can surge to 14 liters per 100 kilometers; it drops quite well on long highway trips, averaging around 11 to 12 liters. On average, my monthly fuel costs come close to 650 yuan, and it gets even more expensive for longer distances. There are multiple influencing factors: driving habits are the most crucial—frequently flooring the accelerator or slamming on the brakes can easily increase fuel consumption by 1 liter; vehicle load also plays a role, as more luggage adds a bit to the consumption. Official data is often slightly lower because tests are conducted under ideal conditions. To save fuel, I've tried maintaining tire pressure at recommended levels, regularly servicing the air filter, and using less air conditioning by cracking the windows slightly. Overall, this is just how SUVs are—the H9's comfort makes the fuel costs acceptable, but you have to get used to spending more than you would with a sedan.
