What is the actual measured fuel consumption of the new Tang DM?
2 Answers
The actual measured fuel consumption of the new Tang DM is 5.73L. The following are details about the new Tang DM: Powertrain: Equipped with a 2.0T plug-in hybrid powertrain, the engine has a maximum output power of 141KW with a peak torque of 320N·m, while the motor provides a total power of 290KW and a total torque of 580N·m. Overall powertrain: The maximum output power is 431KW with a peak torque of 900N·m. Information about vehicle fuel consumption is as follows: Constant speed fuel consumption: Refers to the fuel economy indicator when the vehicle is driving at a constant speed on a good road surface. Road cycle fuel consumption: Is the fuel economy indicator determined when the vehicle is driven in repeated cycles according to specified speeds and time norms on the road, also known as multi-condition road cycle fuel consumption.
I've been driving the new Tang DM for about half a year now, mostly commuting in the city. In electric mode, the fuel consumption is basically zero, and a full charge gives me over 100 kilometers of range. Occasionally, when I go on longer trips using hybrid mode, the actual fuel consumption is around 1.5L/100km. In good road conditions, it can drop to about 1L, but it increases to around 2L when driving faster on highways. Weather also affects it; fuel consumption is higher in winter when using the heater, around 2.5L, because the engine starts to provide heat. If charging is convenient, fuel consumption is extremely low. For example, I charge once a week and rarely need to refuel. I recommend using pure electric mode more often—it's cost-effective and eco-friendly—but you need to plan your charging stops well.
