Oushang X7 has a fuel consumption of 7.4 liters per 100 kilometers. The following is a related introduction to the Changan X7: 1. Body appearance: It features a large hexagonal front grille with a wave-shaped horizontal bar layout extending downward from left to right. The Changan Oushang Yunying logo is suspended above the grille, giving the overall design a distinctive look. The exterior configuration includes full-LED natural light compound headlights, dual-color straight-cut wheels with a whirlwind design, and a combination of a through-type waistline design. 2. Body dimensions: The body length, width, and height are 4705/1860/1720 mm, with a wheelbase of 2780 mm, positioning it as a compact SUV. It has 26 interior storage space designs and successfully completed the loading of 40 people's space in the 'Ultimate Challenge' activity of the super test.

I've been driving my X7 for almost a year now. During city commutes in traffic jams, the fuel consumption stays around 9-10L/100km, while it drops to around 7L/100km on highways. The recent fuel price hike has been particularly painful. Last week, I specifically tried driving in eco mode with gentle acceleration and less braking, which reduced fuel consumption by about 0.8L. However, with its 1.5T engine powering an SUV body and the significant air resistance, the fuel consumption is naturally higher than sedans. My friend's similar-class vehicle like the Haval H6 also consumes around 9L/100km, so it seems SUVs are just like that. If you mainly drive in urban areas, I recommend installing a fuel consumption monitoring app to help optimize your routes and driving habits.

Paying attention to the impact of vehicle weight and driving habits on fuel consumption is quite important. My X7 has a curb weight of 1.5 tons, and it consumes the most fuel during acceleration, so I'm used to gently pressing the throttle when the traffic light turns green. I previously read in the manual that the Blue Whale engine technology features direct fuel injection, with a theoretical fuel consumption of just over 6 liters, but in reality, it's impossible to achieve that. My daily commute is 20 kilometers, and the displayed comprehensive fuel consumption is 8.3 liters. On the highway, using cruise control can bring it down to 7.1 liters. Compared to the similarly-classed Boyue, its dual-clutch transmission is tuned more aggressively, resulting in a slightly higher fuel consumption by about 0.5 liters. Additionally, maintaining tire pressure at 2.5 is more fuel-efficient than at 2.3, and avoiding heavy loads in the back seats can also reduce weight.

The daily experience with the X7 is quite average. My one-way commute is 10 kilometers, with the fuel consumption showing 9.5 during peak hours in the morning and evening. On weekends, driving on national highways for outings, it can drop to 7.8. The car has a 55-liter fuel tank, and a full tank can cover over 500 kilometers. Running the air conditioning at maximum increases fuel consumption by 0.6, so I prefer using the auto mode. The most surprising feature is the engine start-stop in eco mode, which saves a lot when idling at red lights. Compared to my colleague's Tiggo 8, the X7 has slightly lower fuel consumption but weaker power. Regularly changing the air filter helps maintain fuel efficiency.

In a horizontal comparison with domestic SUVs in the same class, the X7's fuel consumption is at a medium level. My own measured data shows: 9.2 in the city and 7.3 on the highway, which is about 0.4 lower than the CS75 PLUS under the same road conditions. Its engine technology is more updated, with a thermal efficiency of 37%, which is considered high in the same price range. However, the vehicle's height increases wind resistance, making it particularly fuel-consuming when using air conditioning in summer. After installing underbody protection, my fuel consumption increased by 0.3, so modifications should be approached with caution. Over the long term, fuel consumption tends to stabilize after the 10,000 km . To save fuel, avoid congested routes and refrain from carrying heavy items in the trunk.

After driving the X7 for 20,000 kilometers, I noticed that the fuel consumption was relatively high during the first 5,000 kilometers of the new car, but stabilized at 8.5 liters per 100 kilometers after the first . I usually fill up with 92-octane gasoline and tried 95-octane, but there was no significant fuel-saving effect. When driving uphill on mountain roads, the fuel consumption can surge to 12 liters, but using kinetic energy recovery on downhill sections can recover some of it. Fuel consumption increases after tire wear, and replacing the tires last year reduced it by 0.4 liters. Compared to the older model, the new X7 uses more lightweight materials, reducing the vehicle's weight by about 80 kilograms. It's recommended to clean carbon deposits every quarter and replace spark plugs on time, as these details can help prevent sudden spikes in fuel consumption.
