What is the actual fuel consumption of the Vision X3?
4 Answers
The actual fuel consumption of the Vision X3 ranges from 7.95 to 10.67 liters. Taking the 2020 Vision X3 as an example, it is a compact SUV with the following dimensions: length 4005mm, width 1760mm, height 1575mm, wheelbase 2480mm, curb weight 1180kg, trunk capacity 400 liters, and minimum ground clearance 185mm. The 2020 Vision X3 is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 109 PS, maximum torque of 142 Nm, and maximum power of 80 kW. The front suspension is a MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension is a torsion beam non-independent suspension.
I've been driving this Geely Vision X3 for over a year, mainly for urban commuting to work. In summer with AC on, the fuel consumption is around 8L, while in winter without AC it drops to just over 7L. There are many traffic lights during my commute, and the stop-and-go driving is particularly fuel-intensive, especially in traffic jams where consumption can spike to 9L. I suggest avoiding peak hours if possible; driving on highways during weekends shows significantly lower fuel consumption. Make sure to maintain regular oil changes and keep tire pressure around 2.3 - these small details can save enough on fuel to treat yourself to a hotpot meal every couple of months.
Just took the car for maintenance last week and had the mechanic check the actual fuel consumption. With 20,000 kilometers on the odometer, the average is 7.5L per 100km, significantly higher than the official rating of 6.1L. A friend who drives the same model mostly on highways gets around 6.8L. My husband drives aggressively, which spikes the fuel consumption, but after switching to gradual acceleration and less braking, we save nearly 200 yuan on gas each month. The car weighs 1.2 tons, which isn't light, and the 1.5L engine struggles a bit in city driving, but the air conditioning cools down pretty quickly.
I bought the Geely Vision X3 right after getting my driver's license. The fuel consumption soared to over 9L in the first three months, but now it has stabilized at around 7.8L. I've discovered a few fuel-saving tips: release the accelerator in advance before traffic lights, use cruise control when reaching 60 km/h, and promptly clear out the trunk. Compared to the Baojun 510's 7L fuel consumption, it's slightly higher, but the steering wheel is light, making it easy for women to operate with one hand. The chassis feels stable on rough roads, though the engine noise is a bit loud.
