What is the fuel consumption of Changan Honor 1.3?
2 Answers
The MIIT comprehensive fuel consumption is 7L/100km, but actual fuel consumption may vary slightly. The Changan Honor is a micro van, and its actual fuel consumption mainly depends on factors such as the driver's habits and road conditions. Here are some points to note regarding high fuel consumption: Check tire pressure: Ensure the tire pressure is sufficient, check the degree of tire wear, and determine if new tires are needed to enhance friction and reduce fuel consumption. Check the braking system and clutch: Inspect whether the braking system and clutch are slipping. Check the spark plugs: Determine if the spark plugs need replacement. Damaged spark plugs can reduce ignition energy and slow down acceleration. Check the engine: Inspect if the engine has too much carbon buildup and ensure to clean the carbon deposits.
I've driven the Changan Honor 1.3, and the fuel consumption of this car really depends on driving habits and road conditions. The official data shows a combined fuel consumption of about 7.5-8.5 liters per 100 kilometers. In city driving, it can easily go up to 9-10 liters, while on the highway, it can drop to around 6.5 liters, which is quite fuel-efficient. I've tested it several times; during daily commutes in heavy traffic, the fuel gauge drops quickly, and a full tank can't last 400 kilometers. On long trips, it's much more stable and saves a lot of money. There are many factors affecting fuel consumption, such as heavy loads, underinflated tires, or prolonged use of air conditioning, all of which can increase fuel usage. I recommend regular maintenance, like changing the engine oil and air filters, to help the car run more efficiently. Additionally, for manual transmission, gentle acceleration and avoiding sudden braking can save a significant amount on fuel costs in the long run.
