Tiggo 5 has a fuel consumption of 8.5L/100km. Below is the relevant introduction: Model Introduction: Tiggo 5 is the abbreviation for Chery's all-new Tiggo 5, which was officially launched in Shanghai. The vehicle is positioned as a trustworthy family SUV and is the first SUV model developed by Chery using international standard forward system processes. In shaping the product strength of the all-new Tiggo 5, Chery has poured sincere affection into creating a car for families. It is an SUV meticulously crafted by Chery with "user experience" as the guiding principle, offering product quality that rivals joint venture standards. Exterior Design: The Tiggo 5 has adopted Chery's family-style design. A rectangular grille paired with polygonal headlights, along with stylish chrome decorations, gives this new SUV a design style that leans towards robustness. Combined with a dynamic bumper design, the entire front face exudes a masculine aura. Although the taillight cluster is not large in area, its shape still echoes the design of the front headlights, and the dual-sided polygonal exhaust ports also give it a wild appeal.

I've been driving the Tiggo 5 for 3 years. This 1.5T automatic model usually consumes around 9.3L/100km in urban driving, and can drop to about 7.5L on highways. Once during a family road trip with the trunk fully packed, running AC on mountain roads, the displayed fuel consumption soared to 11L which really hurt. The older 2.0L manual version would be even thirstier, with forum users generally reporting over 10L/100km. I'd recommend choosing the newer turbocharged models - the CVT transmission pairing really saves fuel, and maintaining tire pressure at 2.4 also helps. Oh, and regular throttle body carbon cleaning is crucial - believe it or not, a dirty one can increase consumption by 0.5L!

Last week, I helped my bestie test the fuel consumption of her Tiggo 5, a 2017 automatic luxury model. During morning rush hour commutes, the dashboard showed 10.2L/100km, which dropped to 8.1L on weekends when driving to the suburbs with kids. With its 55L fuel tank, it can run about 510km after refueling with 92-octane gasoline when the low fuel light comes on, working out to about 0.67 yuan per kilometer. Be mindful not to keep functions like mirror heating and seat ventilation on too often, as they drain the significantly and indirectly increase fuel consumption. Compared to the Haval H6 in the same class, the Tiggo 5 actually has more fuel-efficient performance overall, especially in eco mode where the throttle response becomes much gentler.

Actual fuel consumption test results for the 2020 Tiggo 5: The 1.5T+CVT combination achieves optimal fuel efficiency at a steady 60km/h in suburban areas, with the dashboard showing 6.9L/100km. In city driving with frequent traffic lights, consumption averages around 9.8L. Installing a tire pressure monitor and maintaining pressure at 2.3-2.5bar can save 5% fuel. Avoid aggressive throttle during cold starts - idling for over 1 minute in winter wastes gasoline. Using 5W-30 full synthetic oil saves 0.3L/100km compared to mineral oil (verified). Weekend mountain driving revealed that coasting in D gear downhill is more fuel-efficient than neutral gear.

My Tiggo 5 has run 60,000 kilometers, and fuel consumption really depends on road conditions. Driving from Chongqing to Chengdu on the highway with cruise control and air conditioning on, it averaged 7.2L/100km; but in traffic around Hongyadong, it could go up to 12.5L. It's recommended to clean the fuel injectors every 20,000 kilometers, as carbon buildup can significantly increase fuel consumption. When refueling, remember to choose Sinopec or PetroChina, as the fuel quality at small gas stations is poor and can easily cause engine knocking. Don't always keep fitness equipment in the trunk - every extra 50kg of load increases fuel consumption by 0.8L per 100km. The newly released hybrid version is said to achieve 5L, making old owners like me quite envious.

Having driven both manual and automatic versions of the Tiggo 5, the fuel consumption difference was more significant than expected. The 2014 2.0L manual model averages 8.3L on national highways and a normal 11L in city driving. The 2018 1.5T automatic version has optimized gear ratios, with combined fuel consumption around 9L. Don't wait until the fuel light comes on to refuel, as overheating the fuel pump affects efficiency. Upgrading to larger wheels can increase consumption by 1-2L, with the factory 17-inch wheels being the most economical. Before long trips, check the air filter - a dirty one makes the engine work as hard as a person running with a mask. buyers note: inspect the oxygen sensor's condition, as a faulty one can increase fuel consumption by 20%.
