Southeast DX3, as an entry-level SUV under the Southeast brand, has relatively low fuel consumption and minimal noise. Here are the relevant details: 1. Southeast DX3: Currently equipped with the 4A91T engine, which is an upgraded version of the 4A91. It features turbocharging, an all-aluminum body, a DOHC valve structure, and uses traditional multi-point fuel injection technology. 2. Additional Information: The outdoor version of the Southeast DX3 uses Mitsubishi's 4A91T 1.5T engine. The maximum power is 156 horsepower (115 kW) at 5600 rpm, and the maximum torque is 220 Nm (225 Nm for the SR version) at 1800-4500 rpm.
I'm a daily driver of the Soueast DX3 and have been using it for nearly three years. The fuel consumption performance has been quite satisfactory. The official data states a combined fuel consumption of 6.5 to 7.0 liters per 100 kilometers, but in actual use, I get around 8 to 9 liters in the city and below 7 liters on the highway. Many factors affect this—traffic jams or using air conditioning can push consumption up to 10 liters, especially in summer. I've tried fuel-saving techniques like smooth driving without sudden acceleration or braking, which can save about 10% in fuel. Fuel costs have a significant impact, averaging around 5 to 6 cents per kilometer, making it a very economical SUV option. I recommend regular maintenance, checking the engine oil and filters to maintain optimal performance and extend the car's lifespan. Overall, it's a cost-effective choice for family use.
