What is the fuel consumption of the Geely Binyue?
2 Answers
Taking the 2021 1.4T manual transmission Geely Binyue as an example, the combined fuel consumption is 6.1L/100km. The method for calculating fuel consumption and the factors affecting it are introduced as follows: You can estimate fuel consumption by observing the fuel gauge on the car's dashboard, where F=full and E=empty. When the fuel gauge lights up the red warning, note the current mileage. Then, record the amount of fuel added. When the fuel is depleted again, note the mileage once more. Subtract the initial mileage from the later mileage and divide by the amount of fuel consumed to get the actual fuel consumption. Factors affecting fuel consumption: The actual combined fuel consumption is influenced by multiple factors such as vehicle load, road conditions, the driver's habits, weather and wind speed, tire pressure, etc. The actual combined fuel consumption should be based on real driving conditions.
I've been driving the Geely Binyue 1.5T version for several months, with an average fuel consumption of around 7.5L/100km. During peak urban traffic jams, it can rise to 9L, while on highways with steady driving, it drops to just over 6L. Personal driving habits have a significant impact; for example, sudden acceleration and braking can spike fuel consumption by 10%. I've also installed a tire pressure monitoring system and regularly perform minor maintenance, like changing the engine oil every 5,000 kilometers—these small adjustments can save 0.5-1L of fuel. Once, on a trip to the suburbs, I filled up the tank and drove nearly 600 kilometers, which was quite economical. Compared to the similarly classed Haval H6, the Binyue is slightly more fuel-efficient, but the difference narrows when using air conditioning or with a full load. I recommend potential owners try using eco mode more often; real-world tests show it can reduce fuel consumption by 0.8L.
