What is the fuel consumption of the Baojun 730 manual transmission?
2 Answers
Baojun 730's MIIT comprehensive fuel consumption is 6.3-8(L/100km). Since fuel consumption is related to multiple factors, the main factors include the following situations: 1. Vehicle-related reasons: 1. Excessive carbon deposits in the engine. The main reason for excessive carbon deposits in the engine in the short term is the use of unsuitable fuel, which is more likely to occur after long-distance driving or lending the vehicle to others. Long-distance driving inevitably involves refueling with local fuels, and even fuels of the same grade may vary in quality across different regions, leading to the accidental use of unsuitable fuel. Lending the vehicle to others makes it even harder to control the quality of the fuel added. 2. Prolonged non-replacement of the "three filters". During vehicle use, the three filters must be replaced regularly. If not replaced for a long time, they become dirty and affect performance, sending incorrect information to the engine control unit, resulting in incomplete fuel combustion and increased engine carbon deposits. 3. Damage to the vehicle's oxygen sensor. As an internal control unit of the car, the oxygen sensor mainly monitors the air-fuel ratio of the engine. Once damaged, it will cause an imbalance in the air-fuel ratio, leading to a sudden increase in fuel consumption. After the oxygen sensor is damaged, the exhaust pipe will emit darker-colored exhaust during driving. 2. External factors: 1. Bad habits, such as sudden acceleration. In fact, personal driving habits have a significant impact on fuel consumption. Due to various mechanical designs, it takes some time for the engine to reach an optimal state, similar to warming up before intense exercise. Sudden acceleration and hard braking may sometimes be opportunities to show off driving skills or demonstrate car performance, but such driving can drastically increase fuel consumption, up to 2-3 times that of normal driving. The optimal driving speed should be maintained at 60-80km/h. Additionally, observe road conditions in advance to control speed with the throttle. 2. Road conditions. This may not be directly related to driving, but route selection is a crucial aspect of fuel efficiency. Sometimes, a longer distance does not necessarily mean worse road conditions. Therefore, when choosing a route, try to select one that is less congested and as short as possible! This can save more fuel.
I've been driving the Baojun 730 manual transmission for a while now, with fuel consumption typically ranging from 7 to 9 liters per 100 kilometers. In congested city traffic, it easily rises to 9 liters, but on smooth highway runs, it can drop to 7 liters. Given its spacious interior and substantial weight as an MPV, it's normal for it to consume more fuel compared to smaller cars. For my daily commute with some cargo, I've noticed that turning on the air conditioning or sudden braking and acceleration can cause a spike in fuel consumption. I recommend driving smoothly and planning routes wisely to avoid peak hours, which can also save some money. Regularly checking tire pressure and engine oil condition can also optimize efficiency. With proper maintenance over the past year, my car's fuel consumption has remained stable at around 7.5 liters, making it quite suitable for daily family use, whether for long trips or short distances.
