What is the actual fuel consumption of the Regal 2.0T?
2 Answers
The average fuel consumption of the 2.0T Regal is approximately 9.9 liters per 100 kilometers. Below is the relevant introduction: Positioning: The new Regal is a domestically produced car launched by Shanghai GM and is one of the important components of Shanghai GM Buick's dual-brand strategy. It has a body weight of 1,570 kilograms and adopts a front-wheel drive system. Powertrain: The new-generation Regal introduces the 2.0L-ECO intelligent engine and the 2.0T direct-injection turbocharged engine, which not only enters the mainstream engine segment of the mid-to-high-end market but also fills the 2.0L segment between the Buick Excelle (Gallery Forum) 1.6L/1.8L and the Buick LaCrosse 2.4L/3.0L, thereby enhancing the market coverage of Buick's product lineup.
I've been driving this Regal 2.0T for over two years now. The fuel consumption is indeed quite high during daily city commutes in traffic jams, typically ranging from 11 to 13 liters per 100km during rush hours. However, it's remarkably fuel-efficient on highway trips during weekends - maintaining a constant speed of 110km/h with cruise control consumes just over 7 liters. Using air conditioning in summer adds about 1 liter to the consumption, and the most noticeable increase happens during rapid acceleration when you can literally watch the fuel gauge dropping. When the trunk is fully loaded for long trips, the consumption increases by approximately half a liter. Overall, my actual measured combined fuel consumption fluctuates between 9.5 to 10.5 liters, which is actually quite average for a 2.0T vehicle - the price you pay for ample power.
