What is the fuel consumption of the new Baojun 510 automatic transmission model?
3 Answers
Baojun 510 has a fuel consumption of 6.3 liters per 100 kilometers. Method for calculating fuel consumption: Vehicle fuel consumption is calculated based on the fuel consumed per 100 kilometers (commonly referred to as 100 kilometers). The actual fuel consumption calculation method: average fuel consumption = (total fuel added - last fuel added) / mileage. In simple terms, fill up the fuel tank, note the mileage (the vehicle can also record it automatically), run until half the fuel is consumed, then refill the tank. Before refueling, check the mileage, calculate the distance traveled, and divide the distance by the amount of fuel added this time. Factors affecting fuel consumption: In fact, factors such as vehicle weight, tires, wind resistance, and load can also affect fuel consumption performance. Therefore, to achieve better fuel economy, avoid high engine RPM operation, and you can release the throttle to let the vehicle coast downhill. Replacing low rolling resistance tires can also help save fuel to some extent.
I've been driving the new Baojun 510 automatic transmission recently, mostly for city commuting. During rush hour traffic jams, the fuel consumption is around 8.5-9L, and with AC on, it increases by about 0.5L. However, it's very fuel-efficient on highway drives during weekends - maintaining 80 km/h with cruise control can bring it down to around 6.3L. The 1.5L engine paired with CVT transmission works really well together, especially fuel-efficient at constant speeds. My actual test showed one full tank can cover 550 km, nearly 1L more efficient than my friend's SUV in the same class. The mechanic suggested maintaining tire pressure at 2.4 and avoiding sudden acceleration for better fuel economy. With current high fuel prices, these tips help save enough for two milk teas every month.
I've been driving the Baojun 510 automatic transmission for almost a year, and my conclusion is that fuel consumption heavily depends on road conditions. For pure urban short-distance commuting, the dashboard shows an average of around 8.8L/100km, which can exceed 9L when encountering road construction or traffic jams. However, on suburban expressways, it immediately drops to just over 7L. The most fuel-efficient experience was driving at 60 km/h on a national highway, achieving 6.1L. The throttle tuning is quite sensitive, making it easy for beginners to over-accelerate and increase fuel consumption. The 45-liter fuel tank costs about 300+ yuan to fill up, which lasts me two weeks for commuting. In the long run, it feels more worry-free than a manual transmission. Although the fuel consumption is slightly higher than the official 6.6L figure, it's still quite economical among small SUVs.
