What is the fuel consumption of the Wuling Rongguang New Card 1.5?
2 Answers
The minimum fuel consumption range of the Wuling Rongguang is between 5.97L/100km and 7.09L/100km, while the maximum fuel consumption range is between 7.97L/100km and 10.29L/100km. Engine equipped in the Wuling Rongguang: The upgraded version of the Wuling Rongguang micro vehicle is equipped with a dual VVT engine. With three core technologies—dual VVT (intake and exhaust dual variable valve timing), VGIS (variable length intake manifold), and ETC (electronic throttle)—it achieves a comprehensive upgrade in power performance and demonstrates even better performance in fuel economy and emissions. Main components of the engine: The DVCP (dual variable camshaft phasing), as the main component of the dual VVT engine in the upgraded Wuling Rongguang micro van, is responsible for controlling the opening and closing of the valves.
I've been driving the Wuling Rongguang New Truck 1.5 for several years now. When delivering goods in the city, the fuel consumption stays around 8 liters per 100 kilometers. If I maintain a steady speed on the highway, I can get it down to 7.5 liters; but in traffic jams or with sudden acceleration, it immediately jumps above 9 liters. The key is to develop good habits—avoid stomping on the accelerator and brakes frequently, check tire pressure regularly (low pressure can burn an extra half liter of fuel), and maintain the engine properly. Changing the engine oil every six months ensures long-term fuel efficiency. Last summer, I noticed the fuel consumption increased by about a liter due to frequent AC use, only to later find out the air filter was dirty. Overall, the official claim of 7.2-8.5 liters is quite accurate based on my experience. Driving carefully can save a significant amount of money over a year.
