The Escalade consumes 11.2 liters per 100 kilometers. More information about the Escalade is as follows: 1. The Cadillac Escalade is a full-size luxury SUV, incorporating the new design concept of the Cadillac Sixteen concept car. It combines a majestic and dignified appearance, exquisite and luxurious interior, unparalleled power, and numerous leading technologies. Since its inception, it has become a model of luxury SUVs in the United States and even the world. 2. The Escalade is equipped with a newly developed all-aluminum V8-6.2L engine, delivering an impressive 403 horsepower, achieving 0-100 km/h acceleration in just 6.8 seconds.

I've been driving the Escalade to take my kids to school for three years now. In the city with the AC on, it easily hits 18L/100km, while on pure highway driving it can drop to around 11L. Last week when I drove my son to a competition in the suburbs, I specifically tested it on the highway: at a steady 120km/h, the display showed 12.3L/100km. But every time I hit traffic, watching the fuel gauge needle drop so quickly really hurts. With 92-octane gas prices so high now, the monthly fuel cost is almost equivalent to my mortgage. If you frequently go on long trips, you might consider the diesel version. A friend of mine drives a diesel Escalade and only gets 9L/100km—I'm so envious. However, the diesel version has a smaller trunk, so for picking up kids with lots of luggage, the gasoline version is more practical.

Last year, I drove the Cadillac Escalade 6.2L for a self-guided trip to Qinghai, covering a total of 3,200 kilometers and refueling eight times. The cruising fuel consumption on the plateau was quite surprising—it showed 10.8L at a steady speed of 100 km/h. However, upon entering Xining city, the consumption doubled to 21L—the V8 engine guzzled fuel aggressively when starting from red lights. I recommend installing a fuel consumption app like Xiaoxiong Fuel to track and discover that: for every 10 km/h increase beyond 85 km/h, fuel consumption rises by 1.5 liters. For long trips, remember to activate the cylinder deactivation mode; on highways, it can automatically shut off four cylinders, and a green ECO indicator will appear on the dashboard. However, this mode deactivates automatically when climbing slopes, as the over-3-ton body requires full power output.

Car club tested the fuel consumption data of three generations of Escalade: the old 6.0L naturally aspirated model averaged 19L in city driving, while the second generation with cylinder deactivation technology dropped to 17L. The current 10AT transmission is indeed more fuel-efficient, but it still depends on driving habits. Brother Wang's newly acquired ESCALADE-V last month is even more extreme - the 6.2L supercharged engine consumes 25L in city driving with sport mode! I usually remotely start the engine via smartphone before departure, waiting for optimal temperature to save some fuel. Those with modified 22-inch wheels should note that increased tire width raises fuel consumption by 1.5 points. But let's be honest - who buying this car really cares about fuel costs? The exhaust note when rolling down the window is worth every extra drop of gasoline.

Will a 2-seater sports car be penalized for carrying three passengers?

2-seater sports cars will be penalized for carrying three passengers. Below are specific details about overloading: 1. Penalty: Driving a passenger vehicle other than an operational bus or school bus with over 20% excess passengers will result in a 6-point deduction. 2. Children: Highway passenger vehicles must not exceed the approved passenger capacity, except for children exempt from tickets as per regulations. When the passenger capacity is full, exempt children must not exceed 10% of the approved passenger capacity. Cargo vehicle compartments must not carry passengers. On urban roads, cargo vehicles may carry 1 to 5 temporary workers in the compartment if safe space is available.

What Causes the Upper Radiator Hose to Be Hot While the Lower One Is Cold?

The reasons for the upper radiator hose being hot while the lower one is cold include insufficient engine coolant temperature, thermostat failure, and water pump failure. Water pump failure: The high-temperature coolant from the engine enters the radiator through the thermostat. After being cooled by the radiator, it is drawn back into the engine by the water pump to participate in the cooling cycle. When the water pump fails, the coolant pressure in the radiator is insufficient, preventing it from entering the engine block for cooling circulation, resulting in the upper hose being hot and the lower hose cold. Repairing or replacing the water pump can resolve this issue. Thermostat failure: When the thermostat malfunctions, it fails to open even after the engine coolant reaches the target temperature, remaining in the closed state. This leads to the upper hose being hot and the lower hose cold. Replacing the thermostat can fix the problem. Insufficient engine coolant temperature: The thermostat is usually installed on the upper radiator hose. When the engine temperature is too low, the thermostat remains closed. The high-temperature coolant stops flowing toward the radiator upon reaching the thermostat, causing the upper hose to be hot. Meanwhile, the lower hose carries low-temperature coolant drawn by the water pump from the radiator, which does not participate in the cooling cycle, resulting in the lower hose being cold. It is advisable to visit a 4S shop for professional repair.

Why Are Tires at 4S Stores So Expensive?

4S stores themselves require significant capital investment, which makes tire prices higher compared to ordinary auto parts markets or repair shops. Here is an introduction to automotive tire-related content: 1. Cushioning Impact: Automotive tires are one of the important components of a car, directly in contact with the road surface, and together with the car suspension, they cushion the impact received during driving. 2. Comfort: Ensuring the car has good ride comfort and smooth driving, ensuring good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, improving the car's traction, braking, and off-road capability, and bearing the weight of the car.

What are the penalties for illegal parking?

Illegal parking will result in a fine. If the driver is present, the traffic police can point out the violation and issue a verbal warning, instructing the driver to leave immediately. Generally, the driver only needs to leave quickly without facing a fine. If the driver is not present, in addition to issuing a fine and a ticket, the traffic police department has the authority to tow the vehicle to a location that does not obstruct traffic or to a designated parking area by the traffic management authorities. More relevant information is as follows: Note 1: No points will be deducted for illegal parking, but different fines may be imposed depending on the situation, or the penalty may be waived. If the parking obstructs other vehicles or pedestrians, the traffic police have the right to tow the vehicle. Note 2: If the traffic police issue a ticket for illegal parking and the owner is nearby and willing to cooperate by moving the vehicle, the penalty may be waived. After all, the fine is not the goal; maintaining normal traffic order and cultivating drivers' awareness of regulations are the ultimate objectives.

Which is More Advanced: Variable Suspension or Air Suspension?

Here is a related introduction to variable suspension and air suspension: 1. Variable Suspension Variable suspension refers to a system that can manually or automatically adjust the height or stiffness of the suspension to meet the driving needs on different road surfaces. Suspension is a factor of great concern to consumers as it directly affects the comfort and handling of the vehicle. However, with today's technology, ordinary spring shock absorbers can hardly achieve both. In the pursuit of perfection in the automotive field, the variable suspension system was born. The function of the variable suspension is to manually or automatically change the height/stiffness of the suspension to adapt to different road conditions. 2. Air Suspension: A high-quality SUV must have the comfort of a sedan while maintaining the off-road capability of an SUV. The air suspension system is the best choice to achieve this goal. Based on different road conditions and signals from distance sensors, the vehicle's computer will determine changes in the vehicle's height and then control the air compressor and exhaust valves to automatically compress or extend the springs, thereby reducing or increasing the ground clearance of the chassis to enhance high-speed stability or off-road capability on complex terrains.
