What is the fuel consumption of the M8?

As a mid-to-large-sized MPV, the Trumpchi M8 is equipped with a 2.0T+8AT powertrain combination, with a minimum NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption of 8.3L. According to surveys, the actual fuel consumption reported by users is around 10.3L per 100 kilometers. The reasons for increasing fuel consumption in vehicles are as follows: 1. Temperature fluctuations affecting fuel consumption: Generally, in winter, lower temperatures lead to slightly higher fuel consumption, almost comparable to the fuel consumption when using air conditioning in summer. This is because lower temperatures cause the engine to dissipate more heat. 2. Lack of regular vehicle maintenance: Dirty engine oil and air filters can also lead to increased fuel consumption. Dirty engine oil results in poor lubrication, increasing resistance in the engine's moving parts and requiring more energy to overcome this resistance, thereby increasing fuel consumption. 3. Spark plugs needing replacement: Spark plugs are often overlooked. Although they may still function, worn spark plugs can cause delayed ignition due to insufficient ignition energy, missing the optimal ignition timing.

As a BMW M8 owner for two years, the actual fuel consumption heavily depends on driving conditions. In congested city traffic, it can spike to 14-16 liters per 100 kilometers, especially when stopping at red lights and accelerating from standstill. On highways, it's better, cruising at 80-100 km/h drops consumption to around 9-10 liters. In sport mode, it's even more aggressive, with fuel consumption jumping above 15 liters, but the acceleration is exhilarating. I regularly maintain tire pressure near the standard value, which indeed saves some fuel—about a 1-liter difference. The engine is a V8 twin-turbo, powerful but thirsty, especially when using air conditioning or carrying heavy loads. I recommend using eco mode more often and avoiding sudden acceleration to keep consumption between 11-13 liters per 100 km, averaging around 0.7-0.8 RMB per kilometer. Monitoring official data and personal records, plus using an app for tracking, provides more accurate insights.

As a budget-conscious family user, I'm concerned about the impact of the M8's fuel consumption on monthly expenses. For a high-performance car like the BMW M8, the urban combined fuel consumption is approximately 11 to 14 liters per 100 kilometers. At current fuel prices, driving 100 kilometers costs nearly a hundred yuan. With frequent family use, driving several hundred kilometers per week, fuel expenses become a significant burden. In contrast, more economical cars like the Trumpchi M8 consume only 8 to 10 liters, saving a considerable amount. I've tried improving efficiency by maintaining a steady speed and avoiding excessive speeding, regularly checking engine oil and filters to extend component lifespan, and reducing strong air conditioning use in summer, saving about 0.5 liters each time. In the long run, fuel consumption fluctuates greatly due to road conditions and weather, with rainy or hot days leading to higher consumption. Opting for hybrid or smaller displacement vehicles proves more cost-effective.

From a technical perspective on the M8's fuel consumption, I have some knowledge of automotive engineering. High-performance engines like the BMW M8's 4.4-liter V8 deliver high power but with lower thermal efficiency, typically consuming 10 to 13 liters per 100 kilometers. Key influencing factors include driving modes: Eco mode with steady RPM saves fuel, while Sport mode with high RPM increases consumption by 30%. Vehicle weight and aerodynamic drag also play roles, with significant resistance at high speeds increasing fuel usage. Maintenance tasks like replacing spark plugs and cleaning fuel injectors can optimize consumption by around 0.5 liters. Temperature is crucial too, as cold starts consume more fuel. These details significantly impact the actual user experience.
