What is the fuel consumption of GAC Gonow Xinglang?
3 Answers
The fuel consumption range of GAC Gonow Xinglang is 7.2-12.0L/100KM. The MIIT comprehensive fuel consumption is 7.5L/100KM. Methods to reduce fuel consumption: You can add fuel additives (fuel system cleaner) to the fuel tank to improve combustion and remove carbon deposits. It is also recommended to perform regular vehicle inspections and maintenance, and clean or replace the three filters (air filter, oil filter, and fuel filter), which is beneficial for fuel economy, meaning it will help reduce fuel consumption. Driving tips: Generally, fuel consumption is mainly determined by the driver's habits. Avoid prolonged idling, and when waiting at traffic lights, you can turn off the engine and engage the handbrake, or use the auto start-stop function.
As an MPV owner, my daily city driving in the Xinglang averages around 8.5L/100km, with highway trips dropping to 7.2L. But it depends on driving habits: with AC on during summer traffic jams, it can spike to 9.3L, while gentle driving in spring/autumn keeps it under 8L. A full tank of 92-octane gives about 500km range, averaging just over 0.6 yuan per kilometer. Recommended tips: maintain tire pressure above 2.3 bar, avoid overloading the trunk, and shift around 2000 rpm for stable fuel efficiency.
I drove the GA Starry with the 1.5L naturally aspirated engine for three months while working as a Didi driver during morning and evening rush hours in a second-tier city. Recorded fuel consumption: 8.7L/100km when unloaded without AC, and it jumped to 9.8L/100km with full passengers and AC on. This is significantly higher than the official 6.9L figure – test conditions differ vastly from real-world traffic. The fuel consumption data collected in our veteran owners' group is quite reliable: 70% of drivers report daily figures between 7.8-9.2L, with some aggressive drivers exceeding 10L. Regular maintenance truly matters – sticking to 5,000km oil and filter changes saved me 0.3-0.5L per 100km.
