2 Answers
The actual fuel consumption of the new Regal 1.5t is approximately 8.6L/100km. Below is the relevant introduction of the Regal: 1. Power: The 1.5T engine has a maximum power of 125kW (170PS) and a peak torque of 252Nm. 2. Configuration: It comes standard with a 4.2-inch LCD instrument panel. Mid-to-high-end models also feature an 8-inch full-color trip computer display combined with dual pointers, giving it a highly technological feel. An 8-inch central control touch screen is standard across all models, supporting both Baidu CarLife and Apple CarPlay. Except for the base model, all other models support the OnStar Full-Time Online Assistant function, which allows remote start, vehicle condition checks, and navigation destination downloads via a mobile app. 3. Exterior: The family design characteristics are quite evident, with a very sleek body. The front grille and LED daytime running lights incorporate wing-shaped elements. High-end models are also equipped with Matrix full-LED headlights, which can automatically adjust the lighting range based on the state and position of oncoming vehicles.
To be honest, I've been driving the Regal 1.5T for over half a year, with an average fuel consumption around 7.5L/100km. City traffic jams are the most annoying—fuel consumption can spike above 10L when stuck in congestion. On the highway at a steady speed, it can be controlled between 6-7L, sometimes even below 6L. I remember one long trip from Beijing to Shanghai where the average was just 6.8L. Maintenance is also crucial—delayed oil changes or a dirty air filter can increase fuel consumption by 1L. Compared to the Accord 1.5T in the same class, the Regal's fuel consumption is slightly higher, but the power delivery is more responsive, making overtaking effortless. Daily refueling costs around 700-800 RMB per month, which is reasonable. In short, real-world fuel consumption is heavily influenced by driving habits—avoid sudden acceleration and use cruise control more often to save a lot on fuel costs.
