What is the actual fuel consumption of the Yidong PLUS?
1 Answers
The comprehensive fuel consumption of the Yidong PLUS is 5.6-5.8L/100km. The 2021 Yidong PLUS currently has 6 models on sale: the Blue Whale NE Flagship and Blue Whale NE Premium models with a combined fuel consumption of 5.6L/100km; the manual Luxury and manual Elite models with 5.7L/100km; and the CVT Elite and CVT Luxury models with 5.8L/100km. The above figures are NEDC combined fuel consumption values measured under test conditions. Actual fuel consumption is higher, ranging from 7.47-9.81L/100km. Vehicle fuel consumption is directly affected by five major factors: driving habits, the vehicle itself, road conditions, wind resistance, and ambient temperature. Specific factors that increase fuel consumption include: Driving habits: Aggressive driving behaviors like sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not coasting before traffic lights increase fuel consumption. The vehicle: Larger displacement engines generally consume more fuel as they require more gasoline to produce greater power. Heavier vehicles also consume more fuel due to requiring greater driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on unpaved roads, muddy surfaces, soft terrain, or mountainous routes increases resistance and fuel consumption. Wind resistance: Headwinds and windy conditions increase vehicle resistance and fuel usage. Low ambient temperatures: Cold starts require more fuel injection as gasoline atomizes poorly when the engine block is cold. The ECU also commands higher idle speeds to warm up the engine, further increasing consumption.
