I've been driving the Changan CS55PLUS automatic transmission for almost a year now. During daily commutes in congested city traffic, the fuel consumption can reach 8-9 liters per 100 kilometers, but it easily drops to around 6 liters on the highway. When I first bought the car, I noticed the official WLTC combined fuel consumption was rated at 6.5 liters, but in reality, there's always some deviation, especially when encountering frequent traffic lights or using the air conditioning at higher settings—the fuel consumption spikes noticeably. I make it a habit to record my trips on the app, averaging about 1,000 kilometers per month with fuel costs around 600 yuan—not expensive, but not particularly economical either. To save fuel, I recommend avoiding sudden braking and coasting more often. City driving conditions really guzzle fuel, and the SUV's higher chassis increases wind resistance. Overall, the car's fuel consumption is quite realistic, making it a cost-effective choice for family use—just don't compare it to sedans.
