What is the fuel consumption of the Trumpchi Shadow Leopard?
2 Answers
The comprehensive fuel consumption of the Trumpchi Shadow Leopard is 5.7L/100km. Currently, there are five models of the Trumpchi Shadow Leopard on sale: the J15 version, J11 version, J10 Flyer version, J16 version, and J16 Su Shen Limited Edition, all with a comprehensive fuel consumption of 5.7L/100km. The above figures are based on the NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption, which is the data measured under the NEDC test procedure for combined driving conditions. The actual fuel consumption is higher than this value, ranging from 8.3-9.0L/100km. The level of a car's fuel consumption 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 displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements usually mean higher power, requiring more gasoline to burn and perform work. Heavier cars also consume more fuel due to the greater driving torque needed. 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 during cold starts, requiring more gasoline to burn, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, in low temperatures, the engine's computer may control the engine to run at higher RPMs to warm up, further increasing fuel consumption.
As a Trumpchi Emkoo owner, my daily commute fuel consumption generally ranges between 7L to 9L depending on road conditions, with higher consumption in congested urban areas. On highways, it can drop to around 6.5L. The car is equipped with a 1.5T engine that delivers strong power while maintaining decent fuel efficiency. By avoiding sudden acceleration and maintaining tire pressure at around 2.5bar during regular maintenance, I can achieve better fuel economy. I believe driving habits significantly affect fuel consumption - mountain road driving can push it to 9L. Overall, it's more fuel-efficient than some sport sedans; for comparison, the Civic averages 7-8L. With proper maintenance, consumption stabilizes around 7L, making it economical and practical.
