What is the fuel consumption of the 2021 Boyue Pro 1.8T?
2 Answers
The Boyue Pro 1.8T has a total of 7 models. Among them, the 2022 Boyue X 1.8T DDCT models—Zhiling, Zhizun, Zhilian, Zhihui, two-wheel-drive Asian Games Edition, and two-wheel-drive Asian Games Comfort Edition—are equipped with a 184-horsepower engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 7.7L per 100 km. The manual two-wheel-drive Asian Games Edition is equipped with a 163-horsepower engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 7.1L per 100 km. The fuel tank capacity is the same across all Boyue Pro 1.8T models. The distance achievable on a full tank is as follows: For models with the 184-horsepower engine, the fuel tank capacity is 58L, allowing a range of 58/7.7*100=820 km on a full tank. For models with the 163-horsepower engine, the fuel tank capacity is 58L, allowing a range of 58/7.1*100=862 km on a full tank. Vehicle fuel consumption is directly influenced by five major factors: driving habits, the vehicle itself, road conditions, natural wind, and ambient temperature. Specific factors that increase fuel consumption include: Driving habits: Aggressive driving behaviors such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, or not easing off the throttle before a red light can increase fuel consumption. The vehicle itself: Cars with larger engine displacements generally consume more fuel because higher displacement usually means higher power output, requiring more gasoline for combustion. Heavier vehicles also consume more fuel due to the need for greater driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on unpaved roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous terrain increases resistance, leading to higher fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or in windy conditions increases aerodynamic resistance, raising fuel consumption. Low ambient temperatures: When the engine block is cold, injected gasoline does not atomize easily, requiring more fuel for combustion. Additionally, the engine control unit may increase idle speed to warm up the engine, further increasing fuel consumption.
I've been driving this 2021 Boyue Pro 1.8T for almost two years now, with an average fuel consumption around 8.5L/100km. In city traffic jams, it can rise to 10L, while on highways it's more fuel-efficient, dropping to just over 7L. This largely depends on driving habits – my frequent hard acceleration leads to slightly higher consumption, but gentle driving at steady speeds of 60-80km/h can save some fuel. Regular maintenance is crucial; using better engine oil and maintaining proper tire pressure can help reduce consumption. The 1.8L turbocharged engine delivers strong power but isn't particularly fuel-efficient, showing obvious gaps compared to hybrid vehicles. I recommend fellow drivers pay attention to real-time fuel consumption displays and adjust their driving style to save significant fuel costs. Overall, actual experience may vary by individual, but it's adequate for daily use though not an economy model.
