What is the fuel consumption of the fourth-generation Emgrand?

[HarleyMarie]

The fuel consumption of the fourth-generation Emgrand is 6.5L/100km. There are many factors that affect actual fuel consumption, and the actual comprehensive fuel consumption should be based on real driving conditions. Methods to determine fuel consumption: You can check fuel consumption through the car's dashboard, where F=full and E=empty. When the fuel warning light comes on, record the mileage, then note how much fuel is added. When the fuel runs out next time, record the mileage again. Subtract the initial mileage from the current mileage, then divide by the fuel amount to calculate the fuel consumption. Factors affecting fuel consumption: Displacement has a certain relationship with fuel consumption, but higher fuel consumption doesn't necessarily mean larger displacement. Relatively speaking, a car's displacement size doesn't directly correlate proportionally with fuel consumption. Besides displacement, factors like the car's shape, weight, and engine technology also significantly influence fuel consumption. Among models with the same displacement, more advanced engine technology leads to better fuel efficiency.

I've been driving the 4th generation Emgrand for almost half a year, mainly for urban commuting, with the displayed fuel consumption hovering around 7.2L. I've taken a few highway trips, and when the speed is controlled at 100 km/h, it can drop to just over 6L. The car comes with a 1.5L engine paired with a CVT transmission, and in heavy traffic, the consumption can spike to over 8L. Easing off the throttle at traffic lights can save quite a bit. Running the AC at full blast increases fuel consumption by less than 1L, which is better than the older models. After the break-in period, the consumption dropped by about 0.3L. It's recommended to use 92 octane fuel; 95 octane doesn't significantly affect fuel consumption but is more costly. With a 53-liter fuel tank, it can cover over 700 km, and my monthly commuting fuel cost stays around 500 yuan. It's slightly higher than Japanese cars but offers more substantial features.

From a technical perspective, the 1.5L naturally aspirated engine in the 4th-generation Emgrand achieves a thermal efficiency of 38%, with noticeably optimized CVT transmission efficiency. I tested it under three driving conditions: 8.3L/100km in morning rush hour traffic, 5.9L/100km at a steady 60km/h in suburban areas, and 6.3L/100km with AC on during highway driving. Switching to low rolling resistance tires can reduce consumption by 0.5L/100km, and maintaining tire pressure at 2.5bar is crucial. The 0.27Cd drag coefficient is a highlight, though the auto start-stop system performs moderately. For long-term use, cleaning the throttle body every 5,000km is recommended - carbon buildup can inexplicably increase fuel consumption by 1L/100km. Overall, its fuel efficiency justifies its 100,000-yuan price point, ranking above average in its class.

Just test drove the 4th-gen Emgrand. The salesperson said the official fuel consumption is 5.8L, but actual figures depend on driving habits. The test car showed 7.6L on the meter, with customer feedback indicating 7-8L in urban areas. The manual transmission saves 0.5L compared to CVT, but can be tiring in traffic. Fuel consumption increases by 0.8L with three passengers in the back, so avoid carrying heavy loads. During break-in, keep RPM below 3000 - fuel efficiency improves after the first service. Adding a roof box increases consumption by 1.2L; avoid unnecessary installations for frequent highway driving. Larger wheels look better but consume more fuel - the factory 16-inch wheels are most economical. This car's fuel efficiency is average - more expensive than pure EVs but hassle-free, ideal for families driving under 20,000km annually.
