What is the actual fuel consumption per kilometer for the Haval M6?
2 Answers
The Haval M6 has a total of 9 models currently on sale. Among them, the 2021 PLUS-1.5T manual Liu Yan co-branded edition, manual Elite Smart Connect, manual Luxury Smart Connect, and manual Comfort models, equipped with a 150 horsepower engine, have an NEDC fuel consumption of 7.1L per 100 kilometers. The Haval M6-2021 PLUS-1.5T-DCT Elite Smart Connect, DCT Luxury Smart Connect, DCT Comfort, DCT Liu Yan co-branded edition, and DCT Premium Smart Connect models, also equipped with a 150 horsepower engine, have an NEDC fuel consumption of 6.9L per 100 kilometers. The fuel tank capacity of the Haval M6 models is the same. The distance that can be covered with a full tank of fuel is as follows: For models equipped with a 150 horsepower engine, the fuel tank capacity is 55L, and the distance that can be covered with a full tank is 55/7.1*100=775KM. For models equipped with a 107 horsepower engine, the fuel tank capacity is 55L, and the distance that can be covered with a full tank is 55/6.9*100=797KM. The fuel consumption of a car is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that can increase fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before encountering a red light, can increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger engine displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements usually mean higher power, requiring more gasoline to burn and perform work. Heavier cars also consume more fuel because greater weight requires more driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases car resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the gasoline injected during a cold start does not atomize easily, requiring more gasoline to be injected for combustion, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, at low temperatures, the engine's computer will control the engine to run at higher RPMs to warm up, which also increases fuel consumption.
I've been driving a Haval M6 manual transmission for almost two years now, and it averages around 9.5L/100km in city driving, which works out to just over 7 cents per kilometer. This car is particularly fuel-efficient on highways—last time I reset the data and drove 300 kilometers on the highway, the display showed only 7.2L. But honestly, fuel consumption really depends on road conditions. During rush hour traffic, it can spike to 11L, but on weekends when driving in suburban areas, it can drop to 8.5L. I recommend using 92-octane fuel; there's no need for higher grades. Regularly checking tire pressure can also save some fuel costs. If you want to save even more, try anticipating traffic lights and avoid sudden braking.
