2 Answers
Under normal circumstances, the fuel consumption is around 6.2-6.4L per 100 kilometers. Below is some introduction about this car: 1. Exterior: The Hongqi H5 is a new model under the Hongqi brand. This car basically follows the design of the Hongqi B-Concept concept car, featuring an inverted trapezoidal front grille connected to the headlights, with vertical chrome decorative strips embedded inside. 2. Powertrain: The Hongqi H5 is equipped with a 1.8T engine, with a rated power of 131kW and a torque of 250Nm, paired with a 6AT transmission. 3. Configuration: The Hongqi H5 adopts an independent floating central control screen, equipped with a three-spoke multifunctional steering wheel and an electronic parking brake.
I've been driving the Hongqi H5 for two years now, mainly for urban commuting. Initially, the fuel consumption was quite high, often around 9L in city traffic jams, and the lowest on highways was just over 6L. Paying attention to details helps save fuel, like maintaining tire pressure at 2.4bar—low pressure can increase consumption by 1L; using air conditioning adds another 1L. Compared to my friend's Honda Accord Hybrid, it's indeed more fuel-efficient, but the Hongqi offers stronger power and better acceleration. After the fuel price hike, I started focusing on fuel-saving techniques: avoid sudden acceleration, keep RPM below 2000; regularly clean the air filter—a dirty one can increase fuel consumption by 10%; and use ECO mode to limit throttle response. My actual combined fuel consumption is 8L/100km, with a monthly mileage of 1000km costing about 800 yuan in fuel. It feels much more economical than an SUV, and overall, I'm quite satisfied with the car's balance.
