What is the fuel consumption of the Trumpchi GS3 in liters?
2 Answers
The fuel consumption of the Trumpchi GS3 is 8.2 liters per 100 kilometers. Below are the fuel consumption calculation formula and tips for reducing fuel consumption: Fuel consumption calculation formula: Fuel consumed ÷ Distance traveled × 100 = Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers. The data on fuel consumed is relatively difficult to obtain. Generally, a full tank is used as the initial data. After driving a certain distance, the tank is refilled, and the fuel amount provided by the gas station is used as the accurate measurement. Tips for reducing fuel consumption: The economical speed is the speed at which the car consumes the least fuel when driving in direct gear or overdrive. When a car is driven on the same road, different speeds result in different fuel consumption. Therefore, there is a specific speed at which fuel consumption is the lowest. Thus, the car should be driven at a moderate speed in direct gear or high gear to save fuel.
I've been driving the Trumpchi GS3 for over a year now, with actual fuel consumption generally fluctuating around 8 liters. In city traffic with slow driving, it can spike above 10 liters, while highway cruising drops it to a quite fuel-efficient 6-7 liters. The car is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, and official data shows a combined fuel consumption of about 7.5L/100km, but real-world driving differs significantly depending on your driving habits. I usually prefer light throttle application and avoid sudden acceleration to save some fuel costs; running the air conditioning throughout the journey can add about 1 liter to the consumption. It's advisable to regularly check tire pressure, as under-inflation increases resistance and fuel consumption, and maintaining clean engine filters also helps stabilize fuel efficiency. Overall, as an SUV, the GS3's fuel consumption is fairly average—not particularly economical but not excessively high either.
