What is the fuel consumption of the Mengshi?
2 Answers
Dongfeng Mengshi has an average fuel consumption of 11.3L per 100 kilometers. The specific fuel consumption standard should be based on actual usage, as fuel consumption is related to various factors, such as load, uphill driving, air conditioning usage, low tire pressure, etc. This model is equipped with a 6.5t engine, which results in relatively high fuel consumption. The main factors affecting fuel consumption are as follows: Engine: This is an inherent factor affecting fuel consumption. From a purely technical perspective, direct fuel injection is an excellent technology. Transmission: Here, transmission refers to automatic transmission. The engine and transmission form the simplest power output system, so the construction of the transmission also directly affects fuel consumption. Driving habits: This is an acquired factor affecting fuel consumption and also the most significant factor influencing fuel consumption.
My M-Hero 917 EV consumes about 19 kWh per 100 km for daily urban commuting, which translates to roughly 0.2 yuan per kilometer. But if you're asking about the fuel-powered version—that's where things get spicy. A buddy who drives the military-chassis-modified version says it easily hits 18 L/100 km in city driving, and even on highways, it never drops below 14 L/100 km. The triple whammy of a nearly 4-ton curb weight, full-time 4WD, and a big-displacement engine means fuel efficiency is just not in its vocabulary. Last time during a desert off-road trip, one M-Hero owner recorded a staggering 25 L/100 km—equivalent to dropping two 1-yuan coins with every press of the accelerator. For better mileage, keep the start-stop system on, minimize camping gear in the trunk, and maintain tire pressure above 3.0 bar.
