What is the fuel consumption of the Emgrand GL?
2 Answers
Emgrand GL's MIIT comprehensive fuel consumption is 5.9L/100km. Fuel consumption calculation method: Fill up the car's gasoline tank completely and reset the odometer to zero. After driving for a period of time, refill the tank and note the amount of gasoline added. Divide the amount of gasoline by the distance traveled to obtain the fuel consumption per kilometer. Introduction to vehicle fuel consumption: Fuel consumption, commonly referred to as the amount of gasoline consumed by a car after traveling 100 kilometers, typically refers to constant-speed fuel consumption. Constant-speed fuel consumption (Constant-Speed Fuel Economy) is an indicator of a vehicle's fuel efficiency when driving at a constant speed on good road conditions. Since constant-speed driving is a fundamental operating condition for vehicles on highways and is easy to measure, it is widely adopted. However, because actual driving often involves acceleration, deceleration, braking, and engine idling, constant-speed fuel consumption tends to be lower and may differ significantly from real-world fuel consumption.
My own Emgrand GL is the 1.5T automatic transmission version. After driving it for over two years, the fuel consumption during urban peak hours generally fluctuates between 8.5-9.2 liters. The frequent switching between throttle and brake during morning and evening traffic jams consumes more fuel. On weekends when driving on highways, the fuel consumption drops significantly. When maintaining a cruise speed of 100 km/h, the dashboard shows a consumption of around 6.3-6.8 liters. In summer, with the air conditioning on full blast, the fuel consumption increases by about 0.5 liters. In winter, when the tire pressure was insufficient, the highest consumption I recorded was 10 liters. Overall, the fuel consumption of this car is fairly average. My monthly commuting fuel cost is around 800 yuan, which is neither particularly fuel-efficient nor excessively thirsty among compact cars.
