What is the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers for a 14-seat Jinbei?
2 Answers
14-seat Jinbei has a fuel consumption of 8 liters per 100 kilometers. Related information: 1. License type: A 14-seat Jinbei vehicle is classified as a medium-sized passenger vehicle, requiring a B1 or higher driver's license to operate. 2. Extension: The B1 driver's license allows driving medium-sized passenger vehicles, defined as those with a rated passenger capacity of 10 (inclusive) to 19 (inclusive) people. Other vehicle types permitted under the B1 license include C1 (small cars), C2 (small automatic transmission cars), C3 (low-speed trucks), C4 (three-wheeled vehicles), and M (wheeled self-propelled machinery). It is important to note that the B1 license does not include permission for B2 vehicle types.
As someone who has driven commercial vehicles for many years, I think the fuel consumption of a 14-seater Jinbei typically ranges between 11 to 14 liters per 100 kilometers, depending on the model and usage. My old Hiace, for example, can exceed 15 liters in city traffic jams, but drops to around 10 liters when driven steadily on highways. Many factors affect this: aging seals causing oil leaks, increased resistance from long-term heavy loads, and rough road conditions worsening consumption. Regular maintenance is recommended, like replacing the air filter to improve intake and combustion efficiency, and avoiding aggressive acceleration to save fuel. From my experience, highway driving is the most cost-effective, averaging around 11 liters, with lower maintenance costs. In short, fuel consumption is closely related to driving habits—travel light and pay attention to dashboard alerts.
