What is the actual measured fuel consumption of the Chery Arrizo GX?
3 Answers
Chery Arrizo GX's actual measured fuel consumption is approximately 8.5L per 100 kilometers. Below is more information about fuel consumption: Definition of fuel consumption: Fuel consumption generally refers to constant-speed fuel consumption, which is the vehicle's fuel consumption per 100 kilometers obtained in constant-speed driving fuel consumption tests specified by national standards for certain types of vehicles. Methods to reduce fuel consumption: Properly adjust tire inflation pressure. Meeting the required tire pressure can reduce wheel rolling resistance, thereby lowering the vehicle's fuel consumption. Additionally, when tire pressure is slightly higher than the specified value by +0.2bar, it can also save fuel.
I've been driving the Chery Arrizo GX for almost a year now, mainly for urban commuting to and from work. The actual measured fuel consumption is around 8L/100km, and it can drop to just over 6L on highways, which is quite fuel-efficient. I believe driving habits have a significant impact, such as avoiding sudden acceleration and braking, and using cruise control more often to reduce unnecessary fuel consumption. In summer, using the air conditioning increases consumption by about 1L, and it's similar in winter. If there's heavy traffic in the city, fuel consumption might spike to 9L, but overall, this 1.5T engine performs well, with smooth power output, and the gap compared to Japanese cars in the same class isn't significant. Regular maintenance, like changing the air filter, can also slightly optimize the figures. Personally, I think its economic performance is quite good, making it suitable for daily family use.
As someone who has been closely following domestic cars for a long time, based on my observations in car enthusiast groups and actual test data, the Chery Arrizo GX has an average actual fuel consumption of about 7-8L/100km in urban areas and between 5.5-7L on highways, which is generally controllable. This is mainly due to the design of the CVT transmission, which provides smooth gear shifts and maintains low engine speeds to reduce unnecessary losses. However, fuel consumption is greatly affected by road conditions and load. For example, when fully loaded, urban fuel consumption can rise to 8-9L, or even higher on uphill sections. It is recommended to maintain tire pressure at the recommended value, as insufficient tire pressure increases resistance. Additionally, the engine tuning is biased towards economy, resulting in significantly lower fuel consumption on highways, making it more fuel-efficient than many peer domestic brand cars. Insufficient engine warm-up during short urban trips is also a hidden factor that increases fuel consumption, so taking more long-distance trips can help balance it out.
