What is the fuel consumption of the Beidou X5?
2 Answers
The official combined fuel consumption (L/100km) provided for the Beidou X5 is 5.1L/100km. However, there is a significant variation in the feedback from netizens. Due to the various driving conditions encountered in actual driving, such as acceleration, deceleration, braking, and engine idling, it is recommended that potential buyers personally experience and assess the fuel consumption to determine if it suits their actual needs before making a purchase. More details are as follows: 1. Calculation Method: Fuel consumption is calculated based on the amount of fuel consumed per 100 kilometers traveled. The actual fuel consumption can be calculated using the following method: Average fuel consumption = (Total fuel filled - Last fuel filled) / Distance traveled. One practical method is to fill the fuel tank to full, note the odometer reading (some vehicles can automatically record this), drive until half the fuel is consumed, and then refill the tank. Before refueling, check the odometer to see the distance traveled. Divide the distance traveled by the amount of fuel consumed during this period to get the fuel consumption. 2. Direct Query Method: To check the fuel consumption, press the corresponding button on the dashboard or steering wheel to switch between the desired data displays. For example, AVG stands for average fuel consumption (showing the vehicle's fuel consumption over a certain period); A represents the total mileage; B represents the single-trip mileage.
I've been driving the Beidou Star X5 for almost two years now. The fuel consumption is around 8 liters in the city and can drop to just over 6 liters on the highway, which is quite economical. I use it for my daily commute, and fuel consumption tends to be higher in traffic jams, but driving steadily can save a lot on fuel costs. To keep fuel consumption low, I recommend slowing down early and braking less, using engine braking more often. Don't skip maintenance—change the oil and filters on time. After my last maintenance, my fuel consumption dropped noticeably by 0.5 liters. Also, avoid piling unnecessary items in the trunk; a lighter car naturally saves fuel. Using the AC in summer will increase fuel consumption slightly, but it's tolerable. Overall, driving habits matter the most—plan your route to avoid red lights, and maintaining fuel consumption at 7-8 liters shouldn't be a problem.
