What is the fuel consumption of the 2016 Baojun 730?
3 Answers
Baojun 730 1.5L has an actual measured fuel consumption of 8.5L/100km, with a fuel consumption range of 7.5L-10.5L. The relevant explanations are as follows: 1. Classification: According to actual measurements, the Baojun 730 1.5L has an actual measured fuel consumption of 8.5L/100km, with a fuel consumption range of 7.5L-10.5L. The Baojun 730 1.5T has an actual measured fuel consumption of 8.9L/100km, with a fuel consumption range of 7.7L-11.0L. 2. Factors affecting fuel consumption: whether the air conditioning is used; driving conditions, the most fuel-efficient when driving at a constant speed and economical engine speed; vehicle weight, the lighter the more fuel-efficient; actual comprehensive fuel consumption is related to factors such as load, road conditions, driving habits, weather, wind speed, tire pressure, etc.
I'm a long-time owner of a 2016 Baojun 730, having driven it for 5 years with over 80,000 kilometers on the odometer. This 1.5L manual transmission model has an official fuel consumption rating of 6.9L/100km, but in reality, it averages 8-9L in city driving with AC and passengers, while highway cruising can drop it to around 7L. I remember the fuel consumption was slightly higher when the car was new, but it stabilized after the first maintenance. Now, with 200 yuan worth of 92# gasoline, I can drive about 280 kilometers in the city. The most critical factor affecting fuel consumption is driving habits—for example, my neighbor with the same model tends to brake and accelerate aggressively, resulting in fuel consumption 1.5L higher than mine. Maintaining tire pressure at 2.4bar and regularly clearing out trunk clutter are small details that can save me around 100 yuan in fuel costs each month.
The experience of driving this 730 is that the fuel consumption is quite reasonable. I recorded three months of refueling data for my 1.8L automatic transmission version, with an average of 8.3L/100km for city commuting and 6.8L/100km on highways. The most fuel-efficient state was cruising at 80km/h with three passengers, where the display showed 6.2L/100km. In summer, using air conditioning increases fuel consumption by about 0.8L, and during traffic jams, the instantaneous fuel consumption can skyrocket to 15L/100km. It's recommended to develop the habit of resetting the trip meter after refueling to calculate the actual fuel consumption more accurately each time. Nowadays, many car owners use mobile apps to track fuel consumption and find that frequent short trips with a cold engine are particularly fuel-intensive, so combining trips is more economical.
