What is the fuel consumption of the BYD Song MAX?
2 Answers
Song MAX has a fuel consumption of 9.2L/100km. Methods for calculating fuel consumption per 100 kilometers: Tests can be conducted on the road or on a chassis dynamometer, and then the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers can be determined using the flow meter method or the carbon balance method. The fuel consumption test method for passenger cars adopts speeds of 90km/h and 120km/h; for commercial vehicles, the test method starts at a speed of 20km/h, with speeds selected in integer multiples of 10km/h up to 90% of the maximum speed, and at least 5 test speeds are measured. During road tests, it is necessary to follow national standards for test conditions, test methods, and test road selection. Methods to reduce fuel consumption: Start in a low gear, gently press the accelerator, and gradually increase speed; avoid prolonged idling or low-speed driving; avoid excessive vehicle load and a full fuel tank; avoid using high-viscosity engine oil; try to control speed with the accelerator rather than the brake.
As an owner of the BYD Song Max, I've been driving this car for nearly two years and would like to share my real-world fuel consumption experience. The official combined fuel consumption is around 6.5 liters per 100 kilometers. I drive the DM-i hybrid version, and in city driving with frequent stop-and-go traffic, the fuel consumption rises to about 8 liters. However, when cruising on the highway, it drops below 6 liters, and the ride feels quite stable. On average, my monthly fuel cost is around 300 yuan, which is much more economical than a pure gasoline car. The car's spacious interior makes family trips comfortable without consuming much fuel. By paying attention to driving habits, such as avoiding sudden acceleration and utilizing coasting, fuel consumption can be better controlled. Over time, I've noticed that the lightweight body design helps a lot, and the battery-assisted start reduces fuel consumption during initial acceleration. I bought it mainly for its practical space and low fuel costs, and friends who ride with me often praise its great value for money.
