What is the fuel consumption of the CS55 automatic transmission?
2 Answers
The fuel consumption of the Changan CS55 1.5L manual transmission model is 8.6L/100km, with a range of 7.5-9.7L/100km; the 1.5L automatic transmission model has a fuel consumption of 9.2L/100km, with a range of 8-10.5L/100km. The main factors affecting fuel consumption are as follows: Frequent braking and starting: Apart from the car's design and engine factors, the real cause of fuel consumption waste is the driver's habits. Frequent sudden braking and sudden starts are the biggest reasons for increased fuel consumption. Unnecessary increase in vehicle load: Many new car owners like to decorate their cars with various accessories and ornaments. Blindly adding body kits, spoilers, winches, and roof racks can also increase the vehicle's fuel consumption.
After driving a CS55 automatic transmission for two years, mainly commuting in the city, the average fuel consumption is around 9L, which can be reduced to about 7.5L on highways. The 1.5T engine provides sufficient power, but fuel consumption may rise above 10L during peak traffic hours. I usually use 92-octane gasoline, which works out to just over 0.3 yuan per kilometer, making it quite economical. To reduce fuel consumption, it's important to pay attention to driving habits, such as avoiding aggressive starts and using cruise control for long-distance driving. Checking tire pressure is also essential, as low pressure increases fuel consumption. Regular maintenance is crucial too; after replacing the air filter, I noticed more stable fuel consumption, saving a significant amount on fuel costs over the year.
