What is the fuel consumption of the Qoros 5?
2 Answers
The combined fuel consumption of the Qoros 5 is 6.6L/100km. Currently, there are three models of the Qoros 5 available for sale: the Leading, Premium, and Flagship models, all with a combined fuel consumption of 6.6L/100km. The above figures are based on the NEDC combined fuel consumption, which is measured under the NEDC test cycle. The actual fuel consumption is higher than this value, ranging from 7.4-8.9L/100km. The fuel consumption of a car is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that can increase fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before a red light, can increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger engine displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements usually mean higher power output, requiring more gasoline to burn and perform work. Heavier cars also consume more fuel because greater weight requires more driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases the car's resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily, requiring more gasoline to burn, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, in cold temperatures, the engine's computer will control the engine to run at higher RPMs to warm up, which also increases fuel consumption.
I've been driving the Qoros 5 for over a year now. In city traffic jams, the fuel consumption can go up to 10 liters per 100 kilometers, while on highways it stays steady at around 7 liters, which is quite fuel-efficient. My experience is to avoid aggressive starts and coast by releasing the throttle early, which saves a lot of fuel in urban areas. Also, check tire pressure monthly and maintain it at the ideal 2.3 bar, as low pressure increases fuel consumption. Using the air conditioning too much burns more fuel; in summer, using recirculation mode is slightly more economical than fresh air mode. Avoid carrying heavy items in the trunk—keeping it light ensures smoother driving. I prefer using higher-grade gasoline; 95-octane fuel makes the engine run quieter and saves some fuel. Over time, I've managed to keep the average fuel consumption at 8.5 liters. I feel this car is economical and practical among similar SUVs, making it suitable for both commuting and road trips.
