What is the fuel consumption of the Geely Vision S1?
3 Answers
The Vision S1 model with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine has a fuel consumption of 5.7 liters per 100 kilometers, while the more powerful 1.4T turbocharged engine consumes 5.9 liters per 100 kilometers. Below is an introduction to the Vision S1's engines: 1. The Vision S1 is equipped with two engine combinations: 1.4T+CVT and 1.5L+5MT. The 1.4T turbocharged engine, codenamed JLB-4G14T, is a new product independently developed by Geely and has been awarded the 'China Heart' Top Ten Engines. Paired with a CVT transmission, it ensures smooth driving while also maintaining fuel efficiency. 2. A car's fuel consumption is not only related to the power matching but also depends on the driver's habits, road conditions, vehicle load, tire pressure, and aerodynamic drag. Considering the consumer market, the fuel consumption figures announced by car manufacturers for new models are often lower than actual values, as the testing conditions differ from real-world scenarios.
I used to drive a Geely Vision S1, and I found its fuel consumption quite reasonable. On average, it consumes about 6 to 7 liters per 100 kilometers, depending on how you drive. In city traffic with frequent stops and starts, the fuel consumption might rise to around 8 liters. On the highway, it’s more economical, dropping to just over 5 liters. There are many factors affecting fuel efficiency. For example, aggressive driving habits like sudden acceleration and hard braking consume the most fuel. I prefer to drive smoothly, keeping the RPM around 2000. Also, maintaining the car’s condition helps—regular oil changes, clean air filters, and proper tire pressure (not too low or too high) can all save you some money. With fuel prices being high these days, my monthly commuting cost is just a few hundred yuan, making it quite economical overall.
Speaking of the Geely Vision S1's fuel consumption, I helped a friend test it, and the data generally fluctuates between 6 liters per 100 kilometers to 7 liters. The official rating is slightly over 6 liters, but the actual consumption is heavily influenced by road conditions. In congested urban areas, fuel consumption can soar above 8 liters due to frequent stops and starts, which consume more fuel. On the highway, maintaining a steady speed is very efficient, and it can run on just 5 liters. From a maintenance perspective, I recommend changing the engine oil on time to ensure high engine efficiency, checking that the spark plugs and throttle body aren't dirty, and keeping the fuel system clean. Don't overlook tire pressure—too low increases rolling resistance and wastes fuel. When driving, avoid blasting the air conditioning too hard; open the windows when it's hot but consider wind resistance. Overall, this car's small 1.5-liter engine is well-designed, and its fuel consumption is reasonable for its price.
