GM8 fuel consumption is 12.1 liters. Below are the relevant details: Exterior: The Trumpchi GM8 features the brand's family-style design, with a large-mouth front grille adorned with irregular thick horizontal chrome trim, paired with wide front headlights. The front and rear bumpers, as well as the side skirts, are outlined with chrome trim. The body dimensions are 5066/1923/1822mm in length, width, and height respectively, with a wheelbase of 3000mm. Interior: The interior adopts a design style similar to the Trumpchi GS8, incorporating wood grain, leather, and chrome elements in details such as the dashboard, front passenger panel, and door panels. The cabin features a 2+2+3 seven-seat layout and is equipped with automatic sliding doors.

Speaking of the fuel consumption of the Trumpchi GM8, as an experienced owner, I have a lot to say. In city driving, it typically consumes around 10-12 liters per 100 kilometers, and can go up to 14 liters with the air conditioning on during traffic jams in summer. On the highway, it's quite fuel-efficient, with cruise control keeping it around 7.5 liters. After all, the 2.0T engine is hauling a body weighing over two tons, so it's normal to consume a bit more fuel than a regular sedan. The 67-liter fuel tank is quite spacious, and when filled up, you don't have to worry about range on long trips. For daily driving, I recommend avoiding aggressive acceleration and anticipating road conditions to slow down in advance, which can significantly reduce fuel consumption.

Last week, I conducted a real-world fuel consumption test on the GM8. Driving 80 kilometers in the city consumed 9.2 liters of fuel, which calculates to 11.5L/100km. The 40-kilometer stretch on the expressway only used 3 liters, which was quite a pleasant surprise. My driving style is relatively gentle, mostly keeping the RPM below 2000. The fuel consumption of this car varies significantly; a friend with the same model who enjoys rapid acceleration has a fuel consumption 15% higher than mine. Tire pressure is also crucial—last time, inflating to 2.8, which is 0.3 higher than the manufacturer's recommended value, directly reduced fuel consumption by 0.6 liters. Fuel efficiency also improves after with new engine oil.

Comparing the GM8's fuel consumption with other MPVs in its class is quite interesting. Actual test data shows it saves about 0.5L compared to the GL8, but consumes over 3L more than the Odyssey Hybrid. I'd recommend opting for the 390T Premium Edition – though it's 20,000 yuan more expensive than the base model, it comes with start-stop technology that automatically shuts off the engine at red lights, genuinely saving fuel. Last time I drove to Qingdao using adaptive cruise control on the highway, the display showed only 6.8L/100km – even the gas station attendant remarked how impressive that fuel efficiency is for a large MPV. Just be aware the onboard fuel consumption display has a 5% "optimistic" margin, so you'll need to factor that in for real-world calculations.

From a technical perspective, the fuel consumption performance of the GM8: The third-generation 2.0T engine achieves a thermal efficiency of 39.4%, paired with the highly efficient Aisin 8AT transmission. I've studied the trip computer data, and the most fuel-efficient speed is 80 km/h, with an instant fuel consumption of just 5.3 liters. I recommend not rushing to remap the ECU for power upgrades, as the factory tuning is quite balanced. The new GM8 Master Edition now comes with a 48V mild hybrid system, making start-stop smoother and saving 8% more fuel, but the price is 40,000 RMB higher, so you need to calculate if it's worth it. Regularly cleaning the throttle body and replacing the air filter are crucial for maintaining fuel efficiency.

In our car owners' group, we've conducted a survey on real-world fuel consumption. Northern drivers average 12.5 liters per 100km when using the heater in winter, while southern drivers consume about 11.8 liters with AC on during summer. A ride-sharing driver who frequently does intercity trips shared his experience: although 95-octane fuel is more expensive, it lasts longer with similar per-kilometer costs. Key advice: pay attention to airflow interference on rearview mirrors - removing aftermarket rain deflectors reduced his highway drag coefficient, lowering fuel consumption by 0.4L. Always have mechanics check the carbon canister and oxygen sensors during , as faulty components can cause unexplained fuel consumption increases.
