The fuel consumption of the 7th generation Elantra is 5.3 liters per 100 kilometers. The following are the factors affecting fuel consumption and methods to reduce it: Factors affecting fuel consumption: The vehicle's own weight, the car's design, and the thermal efficiency of the engine are three key automotive technologies related to fuel consumption. Incorrect driving habits can multiply fuel consumption; road conditions determine the car's fuel consumption; maintaining good vehicle condition is fundamental to saving fuel. Methods to reduce fuel consumption: When starting the vehicle, use a low gear, gently press the accelerator, and gradually increase speed. Avoid stomping on the accelerator, as this can multiply fuel consumption. Gently pressing the accelerator when starting not only shortens the engine's warm-up time but also effectively improves fuel utilization, thereby achieving fuel-saving effects.

I've been driving the 7th-generation Elantra for over a year now, and I'm quite satisfied with its fuel consumption. Overall, it averages about 9 liters per 100 kilometers in the city and drops to 6-7 liters on highways, with an average of around 8 liters. However, actual fuel consumption varies by driver—for example, my daily commute in heavy traffic can push it up to 10 liters, while weekend trips with smooth driving can bring it down to 6.5 liters. Driving habits make a big difference; I tend to press the accelerator lightly to avoid sudden acceleration, and using the air conditioning on low settings helps save fuel. Tire pressure checks are also crucial—I inflate them monthly to maintain the manufacturer-recommended 2.5 bar, as underinflation increases friction and fuel consumption. Regular maintenance is essential; I change the engine oil and air filter every six months to prevent engine efficiency from dropping. These small efforts add up to keeping fuel consumption within a reasonable range. I think this car's fuel efficiency is above average in its class—economical, practical, and cost-effective. After years of driving, I've learned that consistent fuel efficiency is what truly matters.

Our family uses the seventh-generation Elantra for picking up the kids and commuting to work, and its fuel consumption is quite economical. The combined average is 7.8 liters per 100 kilometers, rising to around 9 liters in congested urban areas, while on highways it easily drops to about 6.5 liters. It's very friendly to our family budget, with monthly fuel costs just a few hundred yuan, much more economical than some SUVs. On the way to school, I maintain a steady speed and keep the windows closed, setting the air conditioning to 26 degrees to avoid sudden spikes in fuel consumption. I've compared it with similar models like the Corolla and Sylphy, and their fuel consumption is about the same, but the Elantra offers more space and a more comfortable ride. Maintenance is also key—I change the filters and engine oil every quarter to prevent carbon buildup in the engine, which can increase fuel consumption. My husband drives steadily with fewer sudden brakes, so the fuel gauge readings are very stable. Overall, as a family car, its fuel efficiency is reliable and cost-effective. Buying this car was the right choice.

Why can't the 3rd gear of the Baojun 560 manual transmission suddenly engage?

Manual transmission can't engage gears for the following reasons: Incorrect gear position: When starting an automatic transmission car, the gear must be placed in P or N position. If placed in R or D position, the car will not start. Some manual transmission cars will also not start if the clutch is not depressed. No antifreeze added: Some car owners add water or inferior antifreeze to their cars, resulting in the entire water circuit freezing in extremely cold winter conditions, causing the engine to crack, the car water pump to fail to operate, the car not to start, and damage to other engine components. Gear lever assembly failure: The internal gears of the gear lever are worn, causing the gear lever to get stuck, making it very difficult to pull back and forth, resulting in the inability to shift gears and difficulty in shifting.
