What is the fuel consumption of the VV7?
2 Answers
Great Wall VV7's fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is generally around 8-10 liters under comprehensive conditions. 1. Introduction to Great Wall Motors: Since 2006, Great Wall Motors has established a development strategy focused on compact A-segment cars with small displacement. Its philosophy for car manufacturing is very clear: not to produce low-quality and low-priced cars, but to create products with high standards, global versions, and compliance with international regulations. 2. Global simultaneous launch: In the Chinese automotive market, the phrase 'global simultaneous launch' is often mentioned when referring to the release of globally renowned cars. However, this phrase rarely applies to Chinese cars, as few foreign models are introduced in China. Great Wall aims to change this history. In June 2007, one of the first models in its lineup was launched. Subsequently, a new model will be introduced every 2-3 months. 3. Return to Chinese elements: Chinese elements are becoming increasingly valuable. At the recent Beijing Auto Show, new models incorporating Chinese elements, such as the Chrysler 300C Ruyi and the Smart Year of the Dragon Special Edition, were showcased. BYD even named its second-generation dual-mode electric vehicle 'Qin.' Although more communication efforts are needed to establish this distinctly dynastic Chinese character as a car's identity, the naming of 'Qin' is indeed a stroke of genius, vividly embodying Chinese elements.
I recently test drove the VV7 SUV, and the combined fuel consumption generally fluctuated between 9.5 to 11 liters per 100 kilometers. In city driving with traffic congestion, it could reach 11-12 liters, while on highway cruising, it dropped to around 8-9 liters. Many factors affect fuel consumption. I noticed that maintaining a steady speed and avoiding frequent hard acceleration or braking can save some fuel. Additionally, carrying heavy loads or using air conditioning slightly increases fuel consumption. It's recommended to regularly check tire pressure and maintain it around 2.5 bar, as this helps reduce rolling resistance. On weekends, taking the family out for trips, I found the fuel consumption stabilized during long-distance drives. Overall, this car has ample power and is suitable for family trips, but the higher fuel consumption is typical for SUVs. If you primarily use it for city driving, consider optimizing your driving habits for daily commutes, such as using cruise control on highways.
