What is the fuel consumption of the Great Wall 300?
2 Answers
The Great Wall 300 consumes 10-12 liters per 100 kilometers. Here are some methods to reduce fuel consumption: 1. Check the air conditioning system in summer: Air conditioning malfunctions are a significant cause of high fuel consumption. Poor cooling performance will require higher fan speeds and lower temperatures to achieve a comfortable effect. 2. Frequent sudden braking: Frequent sudden braking is the main reason for persistently high fuel consumption. While ensuring safe driving, make full use of the vehicle's inertia. 3. Avoid excessive use of air conditioning in small-displacement vehicles: For vehicles exposed to the sun, do not turn on the air conditioning immediately upon entering. First, open the windows and set the fan to a higher speed without turning on the air conditioning to expel the hot air inside. Wait until the vehicle has cooled down moderately before turning on the air conditioning.
I've been driving the Great Wall 300 for almost a year now, with fuel consumption fluctuating between 8 to 10 liters per 100 kilometers depending on driving habits. During weekday commutes in congested urban areas, it can spike above 10L/100km, but drops to around 7.5L when cruising steadily on highways during weekends. Proper maintenance is crucial—regularly check tire pressure (too low increases friction and fuel consumption) and change engine oil on schedule for smoother operation. AC usage in summer hikes consumption, while closing windows reduces drag (saving ~0.5L). With rising fuel prices, my monthly petrol costs start at 400 RMB—gentle throttle control helps. This reliable, spacious vehicle perfectly suits family trips.
