What is the fuel consumption of the Sehol A5?

Around three hours. If the car has been used for a long time and the shock absorbers have not been replaced, it is recommended to replace them in pairs on the same axle to maintain balance. However, this does not mean that shock absorbers must always be replaced in pairs—it depends on the situation. Generally, you can replace just one if it is faulty. Below is some information about shock absorbers: Introduction: Shock absorbers are used to dampen the oscillations from spring rebound after absorbing shocks and impacts from the road. Application and Function: They are widely used in automobiles to accelerate the attenuation of vibrations in the frame and body, thereby improving ride comfort. Principle: When driving on uneven roads, although the suspension springs can filter out road vibrations, the springs themselves still undergo reciprocating motion. The shock absorbers are designed to suppress this spring oscillation.
I've been driving my Sehol A5 for almost a year now, mainly commuting between urban and suburban areas. The actual fuel consumption is around 7L/100km, rising to just over 8L in heavy traffic, but it's much more economical on highways, easily dropping below 6L. My driving habits are steady, with minimal hard braking and gentle acceleration, which helps keep fuel consumption in check. After the first maintenance, the engine runs smoother, and fuel efficiency improved by another 0.3L. Considering the car comes with a 1.5T engine paired with a CVT transmission, the fuel efficiency design is quite good, making maintenance costs affordable—around 500 yuan per month on fuel. If you enjoy weekend trips or long-distance driving, the fuel consumption is even lower. Overall, the Sehol A5 is quite economical and worth recommending to commuters or family users.
From an automotive enthusiast's perspective, the fuel consumption of the Sehol A5 typically ranges between 6.5L to 7.5L per 100 kilometers. The official NEDC standard is around 6.3L, but actual consumption may vary due to driving conditions. I've tested it in different scenarios: in congested city traffic, it's higher, often around 8L; on smooth highways, it can be as low as 5.8L. The key factors are the engine tuning and the optimized aerodynamics of the body, ensuring stable fuel efficiency. I recommend owners regularly check the air filter and tire pressure to improve fuel economy. For daily driving, refueling once a week is sufficient, making it cost-effective. To save even more fuel, try the eco mode and gentle throttle application—my tests show it can reduce consumption by 0.5L.
