What is the actual fuel consumption of the MG ZS?
2 Answers
The actual fuel consumption of the MG ZS is around 6L-6.6L, but the specific consumption is influenced by factors such as the car's condition, the driver's habits, and road conditions. Below is a related introduction to the MG ZS: Appearance: The new MG ZS comes standard with full LED Silverstone headlights and is equipped with SAIC Ali's latest generation Banma Zhixing 3.0 system, providing a series of convenient and practical functions for the owner. It also features L2-level autonomous driving technology, a first among high-end small SUVs. The car is equipped with an adjustable EPS electric power steering system, offering three different control modes: normal, light, and steady, allowing drivers to switch between different driving modes based on road conditions. Power: The MG ZS is powered by a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power output of 120 horsepower and a maximum torque of 150 Nm. The transmission system is matched with a CVT continuously variable transmission.
As an office worker driving a MG ZS, I find the actual fuel consumption quite variable. During my daily commute in the city, it can reach 9L/100km in peak traffic jams, but drops to around 7L on highway drives during weekends, averaging about 8L/100km. I often use air conditioning and accelerate aggressively at traffic lights, which really guzzles fuel; later I learned to drive more smoothly, avoiding harsh starts at intersections, and managed to reduce consumption to 7.5L. The official figure claims 6.5L, but real-world usage depends heavily on driving style and road conditions—city driving inevitably consumes more. Vehicle maintenance is also crucial; regular oil changes and tire pressure checks save me about 0.5L. New cars tend to have slightly higher fuel consumption in their first year, stabilizing after the break-in period. Overall, it's reasonable for an SUV in this class—not excessive, though slightly thirstier than compact cars.
