Haval M6 1.5T manual transmission has a MIIT comprehensive fuel consumption of 6.9L/100km. Appearance: The Haval M6 PLUS features a large front grille paired with a trapezoidal air intake below, giving the new car a more fashionable look. Additionally, the grille retains a mesh design, but the new model adjusts it to an inclined layout, enhancing the vehicle's sporty appearance. In terms of dimensions, the new car measures 4664/1830/1729mm in length, width, and height, with a wheelbase of 2680mm, which remains unchanged from the current model. Power: Equipped with a GW4G15F 1.5T engine, it delivers a maximum power of 150 horsepower and a peak torque of 210 N·m. For transmission, the new car will offer two versions: a 6-speed manual transmission and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, both with front-wheel drive.

As a frequent long-distance driver, I've been driving the Haval M6 PLUS automatic transmission for almost two years. The displayed fuel consumption ranges between 8.5 to 9.2 liters per 100 kilometers. After several actual measurements based on refueling amounts, it's about 10 liters in urban areas with air conditioning on. Highway driving saves much more fuel - maintaining a speed of 100 km/h can reduce consumption to just over 7 liters. Keeping tire pressure at 2.4 bar gives the best fuel efficiency. Once when I drove with insufficient tire pressure for a month, fuel consumption directly soared to 11 liters. Friends who regularly carry heavy loads in the trunk should pay attention to weight reduction - last time I helped a friend move with three suitcases, the displayed fuel consumption increased by over 1 liter for that trip.

Our service center has encountered many Haval M6 PLUS owners reporting fuel consumption issues. The 1.5T engine paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission typically delivers a combined fuel consumption of around 9L/100km under normal driving conditions. If you suddenly notice a spike in fuel consumption, focus on checking three key areas: carbon buildup on the oxygen sensor can lead to inaccurate fuel injection—several cases with over 12L/100km were resolved by addressing this; a clogged air filter restricting airflow can increase fuel consumption by 10%; and don’t overlook worn spark plugs—one customer who hadn’t replaced them for 20,000km saw a 1.5L/100km rise due to reduced ignition efficiency. Regular is crucial.

When I first bought the Haval M6 PLUS, I specifically recorded its fuel consumption. The manual transmission version can reach 10.3L during morning and evening rush hours in the city, but it can drop to 8L if you avoid traffic congestion. The most fuel-efficient driving method is maintaining a steady speed of 60-80km/h, with the instantaneous fuel consumption showing around 6L. Avoid stomping on the accelerator when the road is slippery on rainy days. Once during a heavy rain, the tires slipped while I accelerated hard, and the fuel consumption for that day exceeded 13L. After the break-in period, the fuel consumption does decrease somewhat. After the first , the city fuel consumption basically stabilizes at 9L. Drivers in northern regions should note that winter fuel consumption is about 1L higher than in summer.

The fuel consumption of the Haval M6 PLUS largely depends on road conditions and driving habits. I drive the automatic premium version for a daily commute of 40 km, with 70% on urban expressways, and the long-term display shows 7.8-8.2 L/100km. However, the auto start-stop feature really saves fuel in traffic jams—I keep it on for red lights over 30 seconds. I made two modifications that affected fuel consumption: switching to wider tires increased it by 0.7 L/100km, and later adding a roof rack added another 0.5 L/100km on highways. Using air conditioning in summer consumes about 10% more fuel compared to spring and autumn. It's recommended to use eco mode in the city—though acceleration is slower, it saves fuel. Monthly tire pressure checks are advisable, as a difference of 0.3 bar can affect fuel consumption.

Compared the fuel consumption of three Haval M6 PLUS cars in the same neighborhood. The most fuel-efficient one, owned by Brother Zhang, avoids the morning rush hour every day, with a combined fuel consumption of 8.3L; mine, often stuck in traffic while picking up and dropping off kids, stays around 10L; Old Li prefers driving in sport mode, maintaining a long-term average of 11.5L. The car has a 53L fuel tank, and it can run 750km purely on highways in actual tests, but only about 500km in the city. The impact of air conditioning is bigger than expected—using auto 25°C in summer consumes 1.2L more than not using it. Driving habits are the most crucial factor. Once, I tried to anticipate road conditions and brake less throughout the journey, and the fuel consumption on the same route dropped from 9.6L to 8.1L.
