What is the fuel consumption of the BJ80?
2 Answers
BJ80's fuel consumption varies depending on the model. Taking the Beijing BJ80 2019 2.3T Automatic Shengshi Huazhang Edition as an example, its official combined fuel consumption is 11.2 liters per 100 kilometers. The fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is a value measured by the manufacturer in an objective environment using a dynamometer installed on the vehicle's chassis, converted into speed parameters, and then calculated under specified speed conditions to derive the theoretical experimental fuel consumption data for the model. In terms of power, the Beijing BJ80 2019 2.3T Automatic Shengshi Huazhang Edition is equipped with a 2.3-liter inline four-cylinder turbocharged engine with a cast iron structure, delivering a maximum power of 170 kW and a maximum torque of 345 Nm. It is paired with a 6-speed automatic manual transmission and features a front-engine, four-wheel-drive configuration.
I've been driving the BJ80 for two years now, with an average fuel consumption of around 13 liters per 100 kilometers under mixed driving conditions. In city traffic jams, it rises to 15 liters, while highway cruising drops it to 10 liters. A full tank of about 90 liters lasts me just under 700 kilometers, so the monthly expenses are quite high. That's why I've developed a habit of smooth acceleration and avoiding sudden braking to save fuel. It's a rugged off-roader with plenty of power but heavy, so starting up consumes more fuel. Compared to other SUVs like the Haval H9, the BJ80's fuel consumption is slightly higher, but its superior off-road performance is a plus. Weather also affects it—using air conditioning more in winter and summer makes the fuel consumption rise quickly, but regular maintenance helps keep it within a reasonable range.
