What is the actual fuel consumption of the Wuling Hongguang S3?
2 Answers
The Wuling Hongguang S3 has a fuel consumption of 6.9L to 7.7L per 100 kilometers, and it is an MPV model under the Wuling Motors brand. Introduction to the Wuling Hongguang S3: Interior: The interior design of the Wuling Hongguang S3 is much better than that of ordinary microvans. The cabin features a dual-tone brown and black color scheme, and the center console is equipped with a floating touchscreen, creating a sense of premium quality. Most importantly, the Wuling Hongguang S3 also invests significantly in material quality, with soft leather wrapping on the dashboard and door panels, providing a comfortable tactile experience. Exterior: The I-shaped front grille gives the Hongguang S3 a spirited look, while the inclusion of LED daytime running lights reduces its 'utilitarian feel,' making it appear less basic. The rear is designed to maximize cargo space with a boxy shape, which helps balance both passenger comfort and cargo-carrying capabilities.
I've been driving the Wuling Hongguang S3 for a while now, mainly mixing city and highway driving. The actual fuel consumption fluctuates between 7-10L per 100km depending on conditions: maintaining around 80km/h on highways can bring it down to about 7L, which is very fuel-efficient. However, during rush hour in the city with frequent stop-and-go traffic, consumption can spike to 9-10L, especially with the AC on full blast. My model is the manual transmission 1.5L version, and with my habit of smooth acceleration and minimal hard braking, I average around 8-8.5L. A full tank gets me about 500km, though carrying heavy loads or a full passenger complement increases consumption. The engine isn't the newest, and carbon buildup can affect combustion efficiency, so regular maintenance like oil changes every 5,000km and tire pressure checks is recommended. Choosing the right fuel can also optimize consumption—don't just go for the cheapest option. Overall, it's quite economical, especially for budget-conscious small families or business users.
