What is the fuel consumption of the Bestune B70?

[ORobert]

The comprehensive fuel consumption of the Bestune B70 is 6.1-7.0L/100km. There are currently 11 models of the Bestune B70 on sale. The manual Yuzhi version has a comprehensive fuel consumption of 6.1L/100km. The automatic Yuxiang Special Edition, automatic Zhixiang, automatic Zunxiang, automatic Yuxiang, automatic Yuexiang, automatic 15th Anniversary Edition, and automatic Lexiang versions have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 6.4L/100km. The automatic Yuxiang Special Edition, automatic Yuxiang, and automatic Zhixiang versions have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 7.0L/100km. The above figures are the NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption, which is the fuel consumption data measured under the NEDC test procedure. The actual fuel consumption is higher than these values, ranging from 6.1-9.8L/100km. The fuel consumption of a car is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that can increase fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before a red light, will increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger engine displacements consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements generally mean higher power, requiring more gasoline to burn and perform work. Heavier cars also consume more fuel because greater weight requires more driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases car resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperature: When the engine block temperature is low, the gasoline injected during cold starts does not atomize easily, requiring more gasoline to be injected for combustion, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, at low temperatures, the engine computer controls the car to warm up at higher RPMs, which also increases fuel consumption.

I've been paying attention to the fuel consumption data of the Bestune B70, which comes with two powertrain options: 1.5T and 2.0T. For the 1.5T model, city driving typically consumes around 8 to 9 liters per 100 kilometers, while highway driving can reduce it to about 6.5 liters, with a combined average of around 7.5 liters. The 2.0T version consumes about 9 to 10 liters in the city and approximately 7.5 liters on the highway. During actual tests, I found that traffic congestion significantly impacts fuel consumption—stop-and-go driving can consume 2 liters more than smooth driving conditions. In the car owners' group, a few experienced drivers consistently keep their fuel consumption below 7 liters by anticipating road conditions, gently pressing the accelerator, and avoiding aggressive starts. The car runs fine on 92-octane fuel, and I've tried 95-octane without noticeable fuel-saving benefits. Regularly checking tire pressure and adjusting the AC temperature can easily save you 1 to 2 liters of fuel.

I've been driving the Besturn B70 for almost two years now, and the dashboard shows a long-term combined fuel consumption of 8.3L. City commuting is the most fuel-intensive, especially during rush hours when it can reach 10L, mainly due to frequent starts and stops. Highway cruising is very fuel-efficient, with consumption around 6.8L at 100 km/h. Last winter, I noticed the fuel consumption increased by 0.5L when using the heater, and in summer, using the air conditioner directly adds 1L. The car's turbocharged engine delivers power around 1500 rpm, so I usually keep the revs at 1800 rpm. I regularly empty the trunk to reduce weight and change the engine oil on schedule, which makes the engine quieter and slightly reduces fuel consumption. I recommend installing a trip logging app to automatically calculate fuel consumption more accurately after each refuel.

The fuel consumption performance of the new Bestune B70 is related to improvements in engine technology. The 1.5T engine achieves a thermal efficiency of over 37%, paired with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, averaging 8L in the city and 6.5L on the highway. The 2.0T engine utilizes Miller cycle technology, consuming over 9L in urban areas. Actual tests show significant fluctuations in fuel consumption during acceleration, especially when the turbo kicks in, causing an instant surge in fuel usage. During my test drive, I found that the economy mode saves 1.2L of fuel compared to the sport mode, but throttle response becomes slower. The car has a 56-liter fuel tank, costing about 6 to 7 cents per kilometer at current fuel prices. Opting for 19-inch wheels increases wind resistance, leading to an additional 0.3L in fuel consumption, so the standard 18-inch wheels are recommended for better economy.
